Is it normal to not know what i want to do with my life?

So I'm 18 and have just finished school but now I'm stuck in life as I have no idea what I want tk do as a career and what I wanna do in general in life.

Is this normal?

    same here. and it doesn't help that there is soo much pressure to know what you want to do in life right after high school. so stressful! idk if it's normal though.

    Same as me combat gal. When I left highschool the only thought I had was possibly writing. My dad said I'll starve if I go that route lool.

    I'm the same, It never helped when my mum told me that the one thing I wanted to do was 'useless' and 'not worth it'. It's normal

  • go to a random college. pick a random major. if you love it then, hey. all the more power to you. if you hate it, then change your mind. or travel the world. fun stuff. (:

    Give it time, I'm in my twenties and still finding my way.

    Imagine someone could offer you any job in the world, what job would you pick? Even if you feel lost you must be able to come up with your perfect job. Aim high and then over time adjust your sights.

    Well, maybe you should expose yourself to a variety of things and see which excites you. But yeah, I guess it is common in many people.
