I've been a professional actress since I was a sophomore in college. That's the first time I went on tour. I've done Shakespeare, summer stock, promotional acting, etc. All professionally, all paid. I'm in my second year at a reparatory theatre. It's all I've ever done and how I've always paid my bills. I'm now 25. And I don't enjoy it anymore. But I've never really "made it." I've never gotten 'those' jobs. I feel like a failure. But if I quit, I don't know what I'd do. I just needed to confess

This breaks my heart to read. I’m so sorry you’re not loving it anymore. I hope you’re able to find something that brings joy to your life. Art is meant to be nourishing. If this form of art isn’t nourishing you anymore, maybe another will?
