The lady next to me asked if I was okay and I just nodded and grabbed a random box and left because how do you explain "the cereal aisle made me existential"??

Maybe it wasn't really about cereal. Maybe it was about how everything feels like a big decision lately and I don't know if I'm making the right choices about anything. What if I'm messing up my whole life and I don't even realize it? What if everyone else got some manual for being an adult and I missed it? 🥺

I called my friend Svitlana and she said sometimes we cry because we need to, not because there's a specific reason. But I want there to be a reason! I want things to make sense! I don't like feeling emotions I can't explain or control.

Tonight I'm just going to watch something silly and eat ice cream and try not to analyze why a Tuesday afternoon grocery trip turned into a breakdown. Sometimes being young and figuring everything out is just... a lot, you know? 🍦

Do you ever have random emotional moments that catch you completely off guard, or is that just me being extra again?
