<p>I really don’t believe in depression and all that prescription nonsense. If I am depressed it’s only because I feel like I’ve been scammed by the educational bureaucracy, my parents don’t love me, and I don’t have any income and haven’t found my purpose.</p>
<p>In regards to taking responsibility, I agree with that. That would be one of my main goals and objectives believe me. If I was able to live the way I wanted to autonomously and felt valued for my efforts, that would be really really good. The problem is this- I don’t know what I enjoy, what I want to be valued for, and what will sustain me. Getting a job JUST to get a job is just not good enough for me. On the flip side I would probably not dislike a job as a bartender or something. I mean, I am pretty flexible. I just can’t have the job be too bureaucratized or too mundane and routine.</p>
<p>In fact, my first school I was majoring in engineering and I would probably be guaranteed to get a job after graduating. But I made a decision then that I didn’t want to be doing work that I hated for the rest of my life even if I made a lot of money.</p>
<p>I do realize right now I don’t have a lot of options so my two problems are 1) I need to get A job to at least keep me breathing and then 2) Find out what I enjoy and feel valued for.</p>
<p>And the military isn’t for me, definitely. I have no reason to protect the country…idk what else to say about that.</p>

<p>I don’t believe so neither do I believe I am entitled…his income is in the top 5% bracket, and that doesn’t include my mother’s income. He feeds me scraps and the bare necessities, and college has been one of the only times where he’s been generous. Besides, how am I going to survive without any money? I literally have no food, no gas, and the jobs are really scarce, I’ve already looked for almost two months. I would go somewhere else, but in that case I’d need more money to buy gas. The closest town is some 50 miles away.</p>
<p>And I don’t like how you say I had the chance to succeed. I don’t like your whole tone to be frank, because it reminds me of the people who say that the poor are stealing from the rich or that the poor don’t work as hard as the rich. In many cases that is utter BS. In terms of school, I don’t know what your definition of success is, but mine is mostly about learning. If that is my definition, then I’ve already succeeded. If my definition is to get a job in an office cubicle, then I’ve failed.</p>
<p>But thank you for most of the replies. I liked this and I think it suits me:</p>
