I hate living, I hate the people I live with they make me so angry, I’m ugly, I have no money or job, I’m socially awkward, I’m not very smart, every task is hard, I get no pleasure from the boring food I eat, I do nothing all day, got no close friends, and I’m only 18 years old. I just hate life I wish I was never born.

I’m not going to give you an “you’re only 18” speech. I will tell you that you are the only one that can change your situation. Start looking for a job, be open to making friends, take a college class or two at community college….everyone can get a student loan of some kind. You need to work on your self esteem. How can you possibly expect someone to take a real interest in you when you think so little of yourself. Take up jogging, or even walking regularly…it can help clear your head, or even release endorphines that will help make you a little more happy, feeling good to make it a couple miles, make goals for yourself…a B in your class, run 3 miles without having to stop, learn a language, try a new style. Take small steps. Build your self esteem first…everything else will begin to fall into place, won’t happen overnight…but at least you will be on the right path to being happy with your life. You’re young enough to succeed. Trust me. I wish I had known and someone told me this when I was 18. At 42…I feel its over for me. I wish you happiness, health and prosperity for many years to come.
It’s okay to feel upset about your circumstances. Those are real odds to be up against. I have an idea from my own experiences that I’ve never heard supported, which is that allowing ourselves to be conscious through our anger about circumstances can help us to process our feelings in ways that propel us to move forward at some point when we’re ready. But before then, it can backfire through self-sabotage.
