Hello, as the title says, I feel lost. I’m having MAJOR decision paralysis and FOMO and it’s making me depressed.
Basically, I’m 19 and dropped out of uni after my first quarter because I didn’t know what I wanted to major in and didn’t want to waste money. For the past 4 months I’ve been trying to get a job and failing, mostly due to the dense population of college students living here also trying to get a job. Already feeling very discouraged after dropping out and this situation is just not helping.
I’ve been considering going back to school this coming fall but I have to decide in roughly 2 DAYS because of the deadline for my particular school. I’m VERY interested in philosophy and also wildlife/animals. The two interests are not exactly coherent together in terms of careers I guess. (But I am volunteering once a week at a wildlife rehabilitation center which I very much enjoy.)
I feel like I’m missing out on life in every way. I have no friends and I struggle to make them. I’m not in university, I’m broke, and sometimes it feels pointless to get out of bed in the morning.
I don’t really know what kind of advice I’m looking for here but honestly anything would be helpful. I think my parents are sick of hearing about this. (Also, sorry if this is not a good place to post this, but I thought I’d try anyway)
