Jinn, I've DEFINITELY been there, and somedays I think I'm still there. I start thinking that there is one right path, and that I am not on it... and then I start doubting everything that I'm doing. A little bit of self-doubt can be healthy, but not to the point where it distracts you to the point of paralysis by analysis.
Now I'm 26 and starting to get used to the idea that the rest of my life is going to be a little less "on fire" than I once thought it would be, but that this doesn't mean I'm a less interesting person as a result. Knowing what you want is one of the most important things in life, and don't rush that process of discovering. And yep, Pigglet's right, drama is overrated... a tough truth to swallow, but dammit I'm trying! Let the transitions happen on their own... do what makes you happy right NOW, and let the rest fall by the wayside. Otherwise you'll just drain yourself and go insane or something like that.
