7 Fun Accessories For Your Next Existential Crisis
The Verge

What if every major life decision you've made has been wrong? What's your real purpose? Do you even have a purpose? Does anyone have purpose? Is there a God? Have you ever really thought about how big space is? Are we all just doomed to be prisoners to capitalist hell? Existential crises can be tough, but these great products can help you get through your Next Big Breakdown. Thanks, capitalism!

1. Fuzzy blanket

They're called comforters for a reason! There's nothing like burrowing into a big, fuzzy blanket instead of tending to your responsibilities. For an added bonus, get some chairs and build a blanket fort. Nobody can get in without a password--not even dread!

2. Waterproof mascara

Existential crises usually come in unannounced, leaving you no time to take off your makeup beforehand. Investing in a waterproof formula will ensure you can run to the store to get emergency Ben & Jerry's without looking like a crazed raccoon. Swipe on some eyeliner for an easy day to night transition!

3. Teddy Bear


Aww! This adorable little guy will listen to all your deepest fears without telling you to "get a grip," or "please just take the pizza and leave, ma'am." Plus, bears can't ignore your texts.

4. "The Hills," Season 1

"The Hills" heals all. The trivial problems of rich, white 20-somethings are a perfect distraction from your major anxieties. Regretting every choice you've ever made? Please. Lauren picked Jason over Paris.

5. Guard Rail

Perfect for keeping yourself from falling into the void.

6. Bath Bomb

Instead of wallowing in self-pity, try wallowing in a floral scented bath! They're super relaxing and soaking with a multicolored bath bomb will make you feel like a regal princess, not a scared millennial.

7. Amazon store card

Retail therapy! Nothing solves a crisis better than buying a bunch of random shit. In retrospect, this is a terrible idea, but you'll have time to regret it when your next existential crisis comes around!

Are we even real? What if life is just a simulation? What happens after we die? Shhhhh. Just put on "The Hills."

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?

While it is normal to experience stress and nervousness, the thoughts that come along with it can bring up something else.
