How to Have A Quarter Life Crisis


A severe disorder that is often overlooked in society is the inevitable quarter life crisis (QLC). Contrary to popular belief, this tends to be even more traumatic than the mid life crisis because you are still young enough to do whatever you want without the obligation of pestering children.

Be aware of the QLC because it can strike at any time. Usually it happens when you are feeling the most content with yourself. You’ve graduated college, found a nice job and gained some financial stability and BAM! QLC kicks in once you have been completely lulled into a false sense of security.

All of a sudden nothing seems right in the life you have created for yourself. Up is down, black is white, and Kim Kardashian is single again! I mean what kind of world are we living in when Kim can’t even survive in it?! At this point you will decide to make drastic changes in your life. You quit your job and proclaim to do the following:

"I’m going to move to France and be a florist! After all, flowers make everyone happy!"



"I’m going to try out to be a Laker Girl and dance my life away . . . or at least until one of the Lakers notices me and we get married."



"I’m going to open up an organic juice bar and be one with nature!"



"I’m going to move to Ireland and become a bartender. I’ll probably make pretty good money there, I hear the Irish really like to drink."



Living on the wild side with caution to the wind will always be an alluring life choice. But remember, that the simple life will only be fun for a few months. Once next season’s Chanel bag comes out and you can’t by it because you’re such a hippie now, you’ll have your next quarter life crisis and revert back to your old ways.
