I am a millennial myself, and there are times
when I feel tired trying to keep up and be able
to meet my parents’ expectations. What I usually do to deal with it is take a break
and stay away from people who put me down.
Some millennials feel pressured by seeing others succeed in life. Are millennials exhausted from trying to keep up with the pace?
 
I think many millennials feel exhausted from trying to keep up. They’re balancing work pressures, financial stress, digital noise, and comparison culture. With constant connectivity and high expectations at every turn, it’s easy to feel worn down even when you’re doing your best.
 
Yes, many Millennials feel exhausted from constantly trying to keep up. Pressures from work, finances, social media, and lifestyle expectations create chronic stress. The combination of economic challenges, comparison culture, and the demand to “do it all” often leads to burnout and fatigue.

I'm a millennial but barely.

However, my parents didn't go to college. I did. I got two master's degrees, one being an MBA.

I did my part, That's how I feel. I'm also 40 something years old. I'm now in the "setting my ways" phase of my life and if you don't like it, you can kiss my butt. LOL

I think more of us need to take that attitude these days. It's not to be disrespectful it's to be in control of your own life because only YOU can live YOUR life, no one else can.
