<p>Yes clearly you are not intended for college right now. Doesn’t mean that in five years you might actually want to be there. Meanwhile, yes, you are on your own. You need to find a job, pay your bills and don’t spend more than you earn either in the area you are currently living or somewhere else. You may be couch surfing until you figure it out. Yes it it is free for all in that every single adult is making decisions regularly as you did when you decided college was not for you and sometimes other peoples decisions have impact on our decisions. It will be difficult for awhile while you strengthen your adult legs, but you’ll survive. You aren’t the first student that has quit college and had the parental dole shut down. We know several and they survived. If you don’t belong in colleges that is OK, only half the kids that start actually finish. It is not shameful, it is just what it is. If you have friends brainstorm with them what you can do, where you can go, how you can get there. Reconnect with old friends. Look for a job where there is food…even if it’s Big Macs…or a friend who can feed you for a while. Your legs are shaky now but they will get strong.</p>
