[quote=Anonymous]I can relate somewhat. I'm also East Asian and the pressures you talk about are not just from parents, but from East Asian culture in general. My parents didn't put a whole lot of pressure on me but I still felt it very acutely just from the Asian-American community. I also went to a top Ivy because I felt like that was what I was supposed to do, but it really wasn't a good fit for me at all. I've struggled with depression and anxiety ever since then. I did find my way to some degree--I got married, found a decent though not high-flying job, and found a good group of friends through church. I still struggle with a lot of self-esteem issues though and often feel like an alien in this world. No advice, but just letting you know you're not alone.[/quote]
