Times are getting tougher….
They snipped out semesters from the college I’m going to because of budget cuts. I can’t find a job in this f*cked up economy. I’m 21 years old and still living with my parents. I feel so ashamed because I can’t find a job or other school where I can finish getting my degree. F*cking economy. I have no idea what to do with my life anymore… I just want to end it. I just want someone to kill me. I just feel so useless…………

Hi elle. 🙂 you aren’t useless,okay? this economy right now is terrible,and there are tons of people in your shoes,you are definitely not alone nor are you a loser. I’m 19 and still at home right now too. things are really hard,and I actually think it’s way smarter to stay at home and finish school and save up money if you can to pay for your education than throwing it away on rent and digging a hole of debt for yourself. You are definitely not a loser. have you talked to the guidance counselor at your college? maybe there is an online program you could take to help finish your degree. don’t give up okay? something will come along. hang in there!! just remember you are so not the only one going through this right now and you are definitely not alone.
also-i would think the college would have to provide some alternate way to complete your degree wouldn’t they? i don’t understand how they couldn’t,they should at least have to provide you with another college that will.
I lived with my folks all the way into my late twenties. You’re still a kid. Things have changed and you have to be patient. you’re not a loser, bro.
Thanks ellachristina and manpatz. I’ll try to hang in there.
A lot of people are living with family these days.
As an alternative to being homeless or living in substandard housing.
You are nto useless. Just that automation, outsourcing, and bad financial planning is killing the job prospects of everyone.
Maybe a community college or online schooling is available.
Anything you are skilled at? You can probably work freelance or be a contractor.
no problem.:) just keep your chin up. this is a good place to get all those pent up emotions out. just remember you matter,you are definitely not useless. it’s easy to be proud and love ourselves when everything is good,but you have to still know your worth even when things aren’t going so well. you are important.
