19yo, bootstrapped SaaS, 250k ARR after 10 months

Hi, I'm 19yo. I bootstrapped a SaaS in March last year together with a friend (he does sales, I do engineering). Currently we are at 250k ARR and growing fast. (Based in Netherlands). I'm sharing this because I'm looking for people who went through a similar situation. I went from "coding in my bedroom next to my university study" to "doing technical interviews with senior engineers" and "enterprise sales to c-level people" within a year. I do like to push myself way beyond my comfort zone (it's my go-to strategy for learning new stuff) but sometimes it is quite overwhelming. Sometimes, when I can take a step back, I realize how insane this situation is. Luckily I have supporting parents and peers, who try to advise where they can, but none of them have experience running a fast growing company. Anyway. If anyone has had a similar experience, please share. If you know a community/network with similar people, please share.
