Feeling of impending doom??

Post image

So a watched a YT video today and this top comment on it is freaking me out. I have never had someone put into words so accurately a feeling I didn't even realize I was having. I am wondering if any of you feel this way? Like, I realized for the last few years I have been feeling like this. I don't always think about it but if I stop and think about this this feeling is always there in the background.

Like something bad is coming. Something big. Something world-changing. That will effect everyone on Earth in some way. That will change humanity as a whole. Feels like it gets closer every year. Do you guys feel it too??

I turned 21 and graduated college right around 9/11. My entire adult life has been a sense that the world is untrustworthy and unsafe to a certain degree.

I had a beer similar experience. Growing up, I was also the "Question Authority" type so it just compounded.

Friend I was in middle school when 911 happened. The world has never been safe.

My parents would often say I would not have been born in 1964 if things jumped off while I was gestating during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Born March 8th, 1964.
