I've been reading all these self-help books to improve my mental health

now my apartment is just a pile of unread books and unfulfilled potential

My therapist identified my attachment style as 'anxious-preoccupied.'

Which perfectly explains why I keep checking if my DoorDash order is still 5 minutes away.

My dad told me to save 10% of every paycheck for my future.

Right now, my paycheck *is* 10% of what I need for my present.

Boomers say they bought a house for the price of a car back in their day.

Now, I can barely afford the gas to drive *to* an open house.
