Interviewer: where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Me: I used escapist fantasies as a coping mechanism to get through years of trauma and therefore never learned how to plan for a real life future

Alternatively: I went through periods of depression so frequent and intense that I never considered that I’d actually make it to my 20s so now I’m kinda just making it up as I go

If anybody ever asks me this I’m just gonna say “surprising myself” because honestly I have never once been right about where I’d be in five years’ time and I’ve usually been fairly pleased with the result.
