Thread 33235123

dropped out of highschool, no support network, don't want to be a slave to my BPD mom like chris chan was
what do ido
i feel like no matter what i do i'd end up back here
my dad sits in the laundry room making chatGPT youtube videos, he's basically a moneymaking appliance
i want the ability to never speak to these people again, but idk where to start

i could join the military or do oilrig work
i could get some retail or pizza delivery job & either move into nig infested apartments or try to be roommates with old highschool friends, though they seem apprehensive
idk

oh also i'm 21

>>33235123 (OP)
get your GED first

>>33235123 (OP)
>or try to be roommates with old highschool friends, though they seem apprehensive
perhaps they don't want to associate with a high school dropout who says things like "move into nig infested apartments"

>>33235123 (OP)
Get GED. Go to trade school. Become auto mechanic or plumber. Don't give tgem any money. Move out. Never speak to them again.

>>33235123 (OP)
What do you actually do or plan to do that's worthwhile? It doesn't make sense to move in the direction of spiritual unfulfillment and social failure while complaining about your life. That's like saying I hate heat while entering a sauna.

>>33235137
i don't say that to them but ik what you mean
idk how to demonstrate to them it wouldn't be a bad idea
>>33235134
>>33235141
i guess i could go to a community college & ask about that?

>>33235148
Google. I got mine at a community college.

>>33235143
>What do you actually do or plan to do that's worthwhile?
worthwhile in what sense?
>>33235154
i see

>>33235156
Working a McJob is not worthwhile. Being homeless is not worthwhile. This is very simple shit. GED is a start. Hopefully it's not the end.

>>33235164
nothing is worthwhile when i'm living in an adjacent room to this woman
it's like asking "what do you want to do with your life while eating dogshit?"
i don't know
i want security first, i dont care if i can't spend money on videogames and bananas or whatever the fuck

> dropped out of high school

wow. even the retarded kids finished high school

>>33235175
the funny thing is if i had gone to a shitty public school i might've finished, but it was a decent charter school
i couldn't handle the pressure on top of going home to this shit
if i could go back i would've stayed with a friend & tried to finish from there

>>33235168
Excuses. Doing something worthwhile would give you mental and emotional distance from your mother whether you live with her or not. You call them "nigger apartments" but those people are more credible and productive than you and thus have their own places to live. You're either going to be like my friends who are making something of themselves or you're going to be like my friends who shouldn't even have bothered getting a GED because everything is wasted on them. Your choice.

>>33235187
That means you need help for your mental health. Whether it's attributable to your mother or not doesn't matter in the real world. If you don't get your head right life will treat you worse than whatever you're going through now.

>>33235187
what happened that caused you to drop out? This is pretty confusing to me
>ugh I can't take what's happening at home
>so I'm going to drop out of school, not get a job, not move out and so spend the next 4 years spending all day every day at home
???

Also you dropped out during covid? That was literally the easiest time ever to go to school. You didn't even need to leave your bed to attend class.

>>33235214
Unmitigated mental illness. I don't mean to use the term like it's leprosy or something. People can still thrive when they get themselves figured out. But when a person can no longer manage their inner life, external things like school fall apart. And COVID was a bad thing, not a good thing. Just telling you this for your education.

yeah
>That means you need help for your mental health. Whether it's attributable to your mother or not doesn't matter in the real world. If you don't get your head right life will treat you worse than whatever you're going through now.
yeah i know, i would get therapy if i didn't still live here & could afford it
>>33235214

you did at my school lol

yeah it was retarded

>>33235214
i got screamed at by this engineering dude for not writing the dimensions of a window from the correct reference while i hadn't slept in 2 days because of my mom being on a weed
itg doesnt fucking matter
just petty retarded shit
i should've either not been a pussy or moved in with a friend like i said, i understand that
i realize people exxaggerate & there's no way to tell if i'm the problem or not from a 4chan post
i just want to know what people think i should do

>>33235235
>Would get therapy but can't afford it
Another excuse. If you live in an area with any real population, and maybe even if you don't, there's community mental health services.

I like that you've taken charge of your life but now is the time to start using that authority to make smart decisions or you're going to learn many things the hard way.

i did 1 year in 5th grade & dropped out as well
it was my idea to go to school both times & my idea to drop out both times, my parents didn't give a fuck either way

>>33235247
The point I'm trying to get across is at some point you're going to have to start moving with wisdom no matter where you live or what you enrolled in. I get that's not fair if you come from a dysfunctional home, but I'm just trying to spare you a decade of harm.

>>33235247
I think you should get your GED, get a job, and move out. And also stop using racist language, it's wrong.

>>33235248
well i'll look into it
my town has a population of about 18k in rural east texas, though there's a city which i'm sure would have it about an hour away
idk if i should move there htouhg

>>33235261
yeah ty, i appreciate it
>>33235263
do you have any other tips/details about getting a GED? was it fairly straightforward for you?

>>33235263
A real job that an independent human or at least a person in a relationship can live on. Not a slave job. That means no pizza delivery or any such horse shit.

>>33235275
Just get GED prep books and study, taking a course would be helpful if you can afford one.

>>33235276
absolute nonsense, OP just get a job, it will get you out of the house, give your days structure, you will have some satisfaction from being able to hold down a job, and having income will make everything easier. You can get a better job later. This is literally what any therapist will tell you, that having a job improves mental health.

gonna get fucking drafted

>>33235344
the US doesn't have a draft, and is not going to institute one in the foreseeable future. There's no need.

>>33235348
i guess so

>>33235288
>you will have some satisfaction from being able to hold down a job
i don't know if i can hold one down while living here, but yeah
i'm sure none of the people from school would want me living with them if i had no job as well

satisfaction

>>33235352
no, you don't guess so, it is so

>>33235375
:o

i realize i'm a dumbass
thanks everyone

I hope OP is still here.

>>33235288
Why is your therapist your financial advisor? That's better than getting financial advice from a random person, so I'll give you that. Let me explain my point a little bit for people who might like money and security.

1. When you purposefully enter the job market to get a subsidized McJob, you're opting to be on welfare or a beggar and to have no financial security.
2. It's better to go for good things first and shitty things last. Myself and others have gone straight for the McJob, and we paid the price whether we admit it or not. A bad experience is temporary, but a missed opportunity or plain old wasted years hurts you for life. Failure should be a fallback point, not a goal in and of itself.

Whites complain about immigrants taking their jobs then proceed to intentionally ruin their lives out of boredom and apathy. How am I supposed to give a shit about helping someone who can't be bothered to give a fuck to finish highschool? It's astounding.

Don't think you're going to get any sensible answers here OP. people on adv are just here to seize on others weaknesses.

ultimately you have to build autonomy, gain work skills, a secure income, long term goals.
The army doesnt' really want NEETs, if you don't have a 9-5 forget oil drilling.

Can you enroll online to finish your GDP? People drop out for a lot of reasons, often they can still achieve GDP if it's just academic tests
