ADULTHOOD HARD GAAN OO
Being an adult is tough for many reasons. One big reason is that you have a lot of responsibilities. When you're an adult, you have to take care of yourself and make important decisions by yourself. This can be really hard, especially if you don't know what to do or if you don't have enough money.
Another hard thing about being an adult is the pressure to do well. People care a lot about having a good job and having enough money. This can make you feel stressed and worried about not being good enough.
Also, being an adult means going through big changes in life. You might start a family, buy a house, or have health problems. These changes can be scary, especially if you're not ready for them.
Every day, I face a lot of challenges as an adult. One of the hardest things is finding a balance between work, family, and time for myself. It's really hard to do everything and still have time to relax.
Money is also a big challenge for me. I have to pay for things like bills, rent, and groceries, and it adds up fast. Sometimes, unexpected expenses come up, and it's really stressful to figure out how to pay for them.
Having people who care about me and can help me when I'm having a hard time would make being an adult a lot easier. Knowing that my friends and family are there for me makes a big difference.
It would also help to have access to healthcare that I can afford and support for my mental health. Taking care of my body and mind is really important for dealing with the challenges of being an adult.
Learning how to manage my money better would also be helpful. If I knew more about budgeting, saving, and investing, I could make smarter decisions about my finances and have a more secure future.
Even though being an adult is hard, having support from others and knowing how to take care of myself can make it easier. It's important to remember that it's okay to ask for help when things get tough. With determination and strength, I can overcome the challenges of being an adult and have a happy life.
While writing this post, I remembered when I was still a kid. The only thing I worry about is sleep, eat, bath, shit, play, go to school etc. There was nothing else in my mind. Now I have to think of my kids and all the responsiblities that come with adulthood, it's just tiring. Although it's tiring I don't wish to be a kid again oo, my children make me happy, that happiness and joy can't be replaced.

Paying for bills is one thing on it’s own but the unexpected expenses are the ones that kill
Sometimes you can make a very tight budget and then some small unexpected thing comes to spoil everything
Exactly.
Adulthood have the way of making us strong, due to some responsibility and some other things that comes with it.
That's true sha
