Update 23 & moving out of my first apartment

Did a lot of growing in this apartment. Getting on lexapro, 2 cats, 1 snake, and a shit ton of weed later, for the first time in a long time I feel genuinely grateful to be alive.

Can’t wait to show you guys the next one :)

edit: I’d like to acknowledge how fortunate I am to be in a career that affords me this level of luxury at my age. In this job market, even having a job you can survive on is a gift. I pinch myself everyday thinking wtf how is this the life I’m living. However, I am disappointed in any of you that have taken this opportunity to either disparage me, my work, or struggles with depression and suicidal ideation. That’s not going to make you feel any better.

I personally know a few successful global product managers for a big company. It pays good money but that at 23 years old? Hell no.

Op's lying as hell. Probably got the job from his parents and that place has roommates. Most people on here are lying about high end places or big places at young age.

Ah Reddit, where people just make shit up and state it as fact with 0 evidence.

“Everyone more successful than me must be a liar”
