I feel immense pressure to perform thanks to variations on, "You're really smart, so solve our problems." Which led to a bit of an existential crisis, in addition to not really knowing what I, myself, want in life.

My answer has been, "to live quietly and contentedly" but people don't like that answer. We are all expected to constantly achieve and build careers, and I just want to get by, read books, and pet cats. No wonder I'm so distressed.
