I'm Stuck: How to Break Out Of A Post-Grad Rut

motivation for graduatesmotivation for graduates

Living with several recent college graduates, I've seen firsthand how scary being "in limbo" can really be. Whether you think you've got it all figured out or are more confused than ever, building your best life can be daunting. How do you know where to begin? We turned to TikTok and found candid, valuable advice from real people, reminding us you are never alone!

Tip #1: Define and refine your values

a. Don't explain your philosophy, enact it


[tiktok_embed https://www.tiktok.com/@wisdomworkshop/video/6949282848566217989?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowfK9jtjNQ9vnI0oJItrgk4feSOtO3KQcDpIHQnVfYJa0iwQjohRq6suovcRmNni%2FDGgA%3D&checksum=cd6c1fea105d3fcfd5a82bacb1beb728c987b70dfec532b6dcda90dc1f5d15aa&clips_cover_ab=v1&enable_clips=1&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAJPr9FesY978sS0iJxZcDOUc29p-q_TcCgGzpo7SKHFwN--1X9ENxU27jKQj8k3dI&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6949282848566217989&share_link_id=FA847B23-07EF-4288-A388-93B1528B0739&source=h5_m×tamp=1627492899&tt_from=sms&u_code=d7lk789jk0gjje&user_id=6726725879480239110&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=sms&_r=1&is_copy_url=1&is_from_webapp=v1 expand=1]


Defining your values is incredibly important because it lets you understand who you are. However, in order to make better decisions and therefore make forward progress in our lives, it's necessary that you enact your values. In other words, your values hold no meaning if your actions don't reflect them. We are what we repeatedly do, and by enacting your values, you make space for the truest version of yourself to show up.

b. You teach people how to treat you


[tiktok_embed https://www.tiktok.com/@ally_yost/video/6931105400871750917?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowJPxMyfzRC9uEHuLKf%2BMd9x9tanarjCcBaE1ChLKr1g3bRu9kS99TK3n6M0N6%2F4HZGgA%3D&checksum=d909e44a0080b2c12080a5a612cd58920ff22e9daa4ad042565c20fb0fa1dee2&clips_cover_ab=v1&enable_clips=1&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAJPr9FesY978sS0iJxZcDOUc29p-q_TcCgGzpo7SKHFwN--1X9ENxU27jKQj8k3dI&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6931105400871750917&share_link_id=1463A1D3-13AC-447E-83DE-9C385384E29B&source=h5_m×tamp=1627492861&tt_from=sms&u_code=d7lk789jk0gjje&user_id=6726725879480239110&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=sms&_r=1&is_copy_url=1&is_from_webapp=v1 expand=1]

Value yourself enough so that others do too, as this will become the standard to which others hold you. Set high boundaries and standards for yourself, because that will reflect itself in your relationships with yourself and others. Envision how you want to be treated and begin to act that way to yourself. This includes: being your own self-hype woman, taking that extra minute to watch the sunset, or changing into that pair of comfy clothes way earlier than what you consider "acceptable".



Tip #2: Remember that it's mind over matter

a. You are not your emotions


[tiktok_embed https://www.tiktok.com/@itsrebeccaslaughter/video/6921577549743000837?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgow4iHQOwofntms7Cd4Ps2FsSsCCP0B6ObQlRooSgV%2BDQcZi3NAoC%2FU%2BZSN%2FzV8vwc0GgA%3D&checksum=94487cba3ff0c6008ef47f265859639d189fcd656ac5d89829c9463eb77d1c62&clips_cover_ab=v1&enable_clips=1&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAJPr9FesY978sS0iJxZcDOUc29p-q_TcCgGzpo7SKHFwN--1X9ENxU27jKQj8k3dI&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6921577549743000837&share_link_id=E45FD101-1B27-4B0E-8863-2BD7570D8501&source=h5_m×tamp=1627493746&tt_from=sms&u_code=d7lk789jk0gjje&user_id=6726725879480239110&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=sms&_r=1 expand=1]


As this TikTok influencer explains, your emotions will always be there. What matters, then, is not letting those emotions dictate how you live your life.

b. Your thoughts don't change your fact


[tiktok_embed https://www.tiktok.com/@betterhelp/video/6948052224610143494?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowYL8sA4sx9jt13V6C3DWxpC9XbJVBKaGbNgG9uP84TAFTj9eHwm4TQ73og5xnMjK5GgA%3D&checksum=9cefa7c035fbe5f27513fcec9c3bb7da1023790ad50498ad8075a50276adc2a5&clips_cover_ab=v1&enable_clips=1&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAJPr9FesY978sS0iJxZcDOUc29p-q_TcCgGzpo7SKHFwN--1X9ENxU27jKQj8k3dI&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6948052224610143494&share_link_id=3A20818C-2C5B-4C23-BAF7-D9223ECC8887&source=h5_m×tamp=1627493366&tt_from=sms&u_code=d7lk789jk0gjje&user_id=6726725879480239110&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=sms&_r=1 expand=1]


Mindset has a great impact on our outlook and how we act on that perception. When thoughts bring feelings such as anxiety, depression, fear or worry, it can be easy to listen to the negative thoughts and ignore the positive. However, what you think does not change what is. Therefore, if your mind says you're stuck, don't listen!



Tip #3: Form and maintain healthy habits

a. Get good at what interests you


[tiktok_embed https://www.tiktok.com/@matthiasjbarker/video/6982370603504389381?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowTuPnDozJ7cYkqh93Z%2Brm0Hi%2FhO8IoNXKKizdHRsFa2ZdA6154QK5qj5FTPw0QWcOGgA%3D&checksum=6cc9c6280814e93a6520116ca3b75fad032a935a714a0885bf34496cd915ca6d&clips_cover_ab=v1&enable_clips=1&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAJPr9FesY978sS0iJxZcDOUc29p-q_TcCgGzpo7SKHFwN--1X9ENxU27jKQj8k3dI&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6982370603504389381&share_link_id=C1E13249-3310-43A9-B14F-BF2090FEBC56&source=h5_m×tamp=1627493479&tt_from=sms&u_code=d7lk789jk0gjje&user_id=6726725879480239110&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=sms&_r=1 expand=1]


Find things that grab your attention and get you asking questions, but do so without putting pressure on yourself to make it great. Commit to following your interests as they come and go, and remind yourself that spending a day pursuing a hobby is not a lifetime commitment. Rather, cherish even the smallest interests as little glimmers of opportunities through which you can grow and foster a sense of self-appreciation.

Create a worksheet with 3 columns, 10 bullet points each. Label the columns "desires", "gratitude", and "what I love to do" and fill out as desired. This will help ground you.

c. Emotions are like movies: watch them but don't absorb them


[tiktok_embed https://www.tiktok.com/@loriwheeler/video/6963252695884991749?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowCzoqyi%2BCkatTmdxd%2Ff8QWlKa6x3MTwZZ7e0HJDHjo%2BMp7GD4o4yOZwZwC%2BK25THhGgA%3D&checksum=ab5d2b99ec2be7987de1391bff5c40bb81f6f5151ab2e602f919d4fded34fad3&clips_cover_ab=v1&enable_clips=1&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAJPr9FesY978sS0iJxZcDOUc29p-q_TcCgGzpo7SKHFwN--1X9ENxU27jKQj8k3dI&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6963252695884991749&share_link_id=DD1C195E-2BF1-4C2B-B19A-DD69F4FDE798&source=h5_m×tamp=1626203767&tt_from=sms&u_code=d7lk789jk0gjje&user_id=6726725879480239110&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=sms&_r=1 expand=1]


As many times as I've wished to be transported into one movie world or the next, it's nice to end the film back in my own home. Similarly, as you spend time with yourself and others, observe others' (and your own) emotions without absorbing that energy. Being a passive observer instead of a passive absorber will help ultimately strengthen your relationships and overall self-love.

You've heard these before but there's a reason they're constantly repeated: it's the truth! Schedule "you" time, get enough sleep, journal, nourish yourself with foods you like, and get moving!

Last, listen to Tik-Tok's hype woman to remind you who's boss.

Do you feel like you've mastered your Sunday to-do list and want to try your hand at living your best life, for real? Good because we're on the same page — and we've been thinking about what that looks like. Is it uninterrupted moments where you get to read historical fiction or swatch the best foundations for your complexion? What about the bliss you feel when munching on a tasty snack from Trader Joe's?

While it's easy to share our opinions, we thought it'd be more rewarding to give you science-backed tips for what'll make you feel satisfied each day. Ready for all the details?

Keep scrolling for all the ways you can become a more satisfied person everyday!

How many people are satisfied with life?

Kelly Mcglone

We have bleak news to share: only 44% of people in the U.S. are happy with their lives (via Gallup). That's less than half of the people we may pass during our Starbucks and T.J. Maxx runs! What gives? According to the same study, everything from economic statuses to religion seem to play a factor in daily satisfaction.

If you ask us, it doesn't take rocket science to know people who are able to afford their bills may not be as stressed as someone who has to choose between putting gas in their car or getting something to eat. Still, there have to be some easy ways to be satisfied in your day-to-day life, right?

Here are some simple tips you can try ASAP!

Scarlette Alexandra De Gregorio

1. Focus on reducing your stress

We often talk about the impact stress and burnout can have on us, but that doesn't mean everyone is taking steps to eliminate what causes them. Another Gallup study revealed 49% of people are experiencing raised cortisol levels which is much higher than it's been in prior years. You may be thinking that your job or relationship are the sources of your stress, but we'll never flat out tell you to give up on them.

Our suggestions are to:

  1. Take stock of how you feel about your job, relationship, finances, etc.,
  2. Ask yourself what you need to thrive in different areas of your life.
  3. See how you can create boundaries that lessen the chance you'll over-extend yourself in life.

2. Breakup with "doom scrolling"

We saw you try to skip over this section as soon as you saw "doom scrolling," but we need you to pay attention. It's not doing you any good and this is coming from people who are chronically online for a living. A Media Consumption Trend Report shows that the average person spends at least 6 hours everyday looking at "some type of media." The most popular platforms are Facebook and YouTube which doesn't surprise us!

Based on other findings in the study, there's a huge indicator that do this contributes to "poorer" mental health and you don't need that! We know you want to be as informed as possible, but don't let FOMO keep you chained to negative posts and articles all day.

Grace McCuistion

3. Look at the bright side of things

Does life feel bright right now? Probably not, but that doesn't mean you deserve to live in a cycle of stress, anxiety, and depression. We're not shy about our own mental health struggles, but we're also unafraid to talk about how adopting a gratitude practice helps us get through our days.

We're not saying this will magically eliminate bad moments, but it will ground you when you start asking yourself "what if" questions.

Cora Pursley

4. Understand you're not meant to be a one-person island

We think individualism is beautiful, but not at the expense of shutting everyone out because you think you can do everything by yourself. None of us are meant to be alone 24/7, but there's been a growing loneliness epidemic that's swept through the U.S.

In 2023, a study by U.S Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy pointed out that there was a 5 hour decrease in household family interactions along with spending less time with friends per month. It was also discovered that the less time we spend with others impacted our health worse than "smoking up to 15 cigarettes a day."

If you're thinking, "I just can't trust anyone," we want you to know we understand you've been hurt by people you were once vulnerable with. But, it's impossible to do everything in life by yourself even if you think you've been doing a great job so far. Not only does your health depend on opening your heart to others again, so does you overall satisfaction with life!

When it comes to inexpensive wine, Trader Joe’s selection truly reigns supreme. If you’re in the market for a good, soothingsip, but don’t know what to try first, I consulted three separate Reddit threadspacked with the best Trader Joe’sshopper recommendations.

Fromfavorite winesto more budget-friendly options, TJ’s bottles easily measure up to gourmet wines – all without the big price tag.

Scroll on for the 8 best Trader Joe's wines (all under $8!) recommended by wine-loving shoppers.

Trader Joe's

Maison Barboulot Cabernet Syrah

This red blend has the heart of one Redditor that noted it "drinks WAY more expensive than its $6.99 price tag. It’s a forever favorite for me. When I serve it at a dinner party, people always ask what it is.”

TJ's says each sip of this red wine is "smooth and fruity" and contains "approachable" notes of cherry and vanilla.

Trader Joe's

Charles Shaw Cabernet Sauvignon

Oftentimes, $5 bottles of wine tend to disappoint. Not this one from Charles Shaw, though! It was mentioned as a favorite several times on the Trader Joe's Reddit for its impressively full flavors. With notes of blackberry and vanilla, it pairs really well with grilled steak, lamb, or even rich, cheesy pasta dishes.

Trader Joe's

Moon X Pinot Noir

This $7 was another frequently-mentioned pick. One Redditor noted that “it is easy drinking, a crowd pleaser, but not boring, and a great value." Per Trader Joe's, it carries a "bold plummy profile," plus notes of vanilla, oak, dark fruit, and warm spice.

Trader Joe's

Picton Bay Sauvignon Blanc

Hailing from a family-owned-and-operated winery, you'll instantly detect the love and care goes into making this $8 bottle upon first sip. Trader Joe's compares its punchy and crisp finish to that of a Granny Smith apple; one Reddit user agreed and said it's simply "very nice."

Trader Joe's

La Ferme Julien Rosé

For a “nice summer sipper,” you've gotta consult this fresh $7 rosé that also boasts an adorable illustration of a goat on the label. So cute!

Trader Joe's

Honey Moon Viognier

One Reddit user said that they enjoy this $6 wine because it's "medium-sweet and very flavorful.”

The "crisp, floral, phenomenally fruity" varietal white has plenty of fruity notes, which TJ's says pairs naturally with cheeses like brie, Manchego, and blue cheese.

Trader Joe's

Espiral Vinho Verde

The Vinho Verde region of northern Portugal is known for its sweet, fruity wines like this $5 option. It contains some delightful notes of green apple and melon, so it would make a great summer sipper.

One Redditor said that the “price point is unbelievable for how good it is IMO.” Now we've gotta try!

Trader Joe's

Charles Shaw Pinot Grigio

This $4 number is another cheap Trader Joe's wine you wouldn't expect to be so good. It's got notes of lemon zest, white peach, and. almond, all balanced by a "lively acidity" that levels out each sip.

One Redditor shared a tasty hack for this wine in particular: "Since its on the lighter side, I always had a few raspberries that I eat at the end of the glass or slices of jalapeño if I'm feeling spicy.”

The world today is more fast-paced than ever, so it can be easy to push ourselves to the limit and neglect our well-being in favor of completing responsibilities and remaining productive. Nonetheless, there comes a point when our minds and bodies start to send us clear signals that we need a break. But contrary to what some may believe, taking a mental health day is not a sign of weakness.

It's understandable why people might feel guilty about taking personal time off from work to focus on self-care or simply relax and relieve stress. Even so, this growing practice is vital for preserving balance and preventing burnout in both our personal and professional lives. So, in case you need a reminder, it's okay to put yourself first and take a mental health day — these are 10 signs that you may need to ask for one.

Scroll to find the 10 clear signs you need to take a mental health day!

1. You're Anxious About Going To The Office

Tima Miroshnichenko

If you find yourself waking up in the morning with a pit in your stomach and wishing you could avoid the day ahead, it's a sign that your mind is overwhelmed. Feeling anxious or dreading going to work can be normal from time to time, but if it's a consistent pattern, these emotions may be a result of burnout or mounting stress. It's essential to listen to your body, as pushing through and going to work anyway could lead to further exhaustion and even more anxiety.

2. You Feel Burnt Out

Kaboompics.com

Burnout has the ability to creep up on us gradually. When stress is unmanaged, or breaks are neglected, these feelings can build up over time and cause us to feel deeply exhausted. People suffering from burnout can experience a multitude of symptoms, from lower energy levels and mental fogginess to physical and emotional depletion.

3. You're Having Trouble Focusing

Kaboompics.com

When we're stressed, our minds can become clouded, and concentrating at work becomes an impossible task. Even the simplest responsibilities may take more mental effort than ever before, and in the wake of this overwhelming feeling, the likelihood that we'll make mistakes increases.

Not to mention, the effects of stress extend beyond just focus and can also interfere with memory and the ability to retain new information. You may suddenly realize you're struggling to learn new skills or recall important details.

4. You're Constantly Getting Sick

Liza Summer

Chronic stress can seriously affect your physical health as well, and if you're frequently getting sick, you may need to take a day off. Research has shown that stress triggers an increase in suppressor T cells and catecholamine levels, both of which suppress the immune system. So, you're left more vulnerable to illnesses.

A mental health break from work can help you lower stress and, in turn, boost your immune system's ability to fight off things like colds or viruses.

5. You're Getting Agitated Easily

Kaboompics.com

After exhaustion and stress take over, it can be tough to keep our emotions in check. So, even tiny annoyances might trigger agitation or anger.

If you've begun snapping at coworkers or losing your temper over things that wouldn't normally bother you, it's a sign that your mental health is suffering. Taking a personal day will be good for both your well-being and the maintenance of your professional relationships.

6. It's Difficult To Sleep

Andrea Piacquadio

Whether you're frustrated, anxious, or stressed, all of these emotions can make it tough to sleep at night. And if you're tossing and turning, not getting enough rest to sustain you throughout the workday, stress levels will continue to rise.

This pattern can spiral into a vicious cycle: the more sleep you lose, the harder it becomes to think clearly, leading to more stress and even more lost shut-eye. Sometimes, taking a mental health day to catch up on some much-needed sleep can break the cycle.

7. Your Eating Habits Have Changed

Kaboompics.com

Much like sleep, stress can also have a significant impact on our eating habits as well. Some people may lose their appetite and skip meals due to anxiety, while others turn to food for comfort.

Both of these coping mechanisms are unhealthy and signal that your mental health is struggling. If you realize that you've been binging or avoiding food in response to work-related pressure, it's time to take a break.

8. Your Work Performance Has Dipped

Mikhail Nilov

Next, a decline in your work quality, from missed deadlines to challenges staying organized, may suggest your stress levels have reached a point where they're affecting your job performance.

If we're overwhelmed and our mental capacity becomes overloaded, it's tougher to prioritize tasks effectively and operate with a clear head.

9. You Feel Disconnected From Those Around You

Ketut Subiyanto

Another telltale indicator is feeling disconnected from coworkers, friends, and family. You might feel misunderstood or as if you're on a different page than everyone else. Plus, as stress continues mounting, you may feel isolated and alone, even when surrounded by people. Taking a break from your routine and reconnecting with loved ones in your personal life can help you reset and ground your mental health.

10. You're Bringing Your Work Home

Last but not least, does it seem like work is constantly following you home? Perhaps you're always thinking about tasks, worrying about emails, or mentally replaying conversations from the office in your head.

Being unable to disconnect from work after hours is dangerous, as it impedes your work-life balance and doesn't give you a chance to properly rest and recharge. Additionally, blurring the line between work and home life can strain your personal relationships since you're less present with loved ones. A mental health day will allow you to step away, clear your mind, and restore a necessary boundary.

It's true that earning a spot on the coveted guest list is the talk of the town, but not everyone will make it on there.
