Feel lost in life

[user2814]

Hi,

It's pretty much as it says in the title. I feel lost in life. I have an idea in what I want to do career wise but it's more about having an impact in the world, making a difference and I feel like I'm generally wasting my life.

Any one else felt like that? What did you do? Any ideas in how I can not feel lost.

Thank you

Maybe try some volunteer work eg in a hospital or something as it will make you feel needed as well as helping others.

I find that my work as an HCA makes me feel that I have a role in life.

It sounds like you've done some good thinking about this already which is a great start!

You have identified that you want to make an impact in the world and also to make a difference. What does that mean for you? How will you know you have made an impact and made a difference? If you have made an impact and a difference what will your life be like?

If you get the answers to these you'll be on the right path...

Thank you for your responses. I can't offer physically regular volunteering hours due to childcare and I'm the primary caregiver with no nearby support.

I'll give the questions a think through.
