Question by Rosh = LOVE! =D: I feel like I don’t fit in; please help, so depressed. =[?
I just mainly need to let it out. I feel so hopeless, so confused, so lost. Most of the time, I try to be happy and positive and I know who I am generally, but sometimes I just feel like I don’t fit in with today’s society. Although I’m accepted and loved I’m also different. I like to do my own thing and not care what other people think. I like to keep it real, whereas people around me can be so negative, fake and full of drama which I hate. I have my passions, but now that I’m 18, everything I mention that I happen to love gets turned into “Do you think that’s something you might want to do in life?” It’s like you can’t do things just for fun anymore or just chill; it’s all about the money and careers. Seriously, about half the time I turn around, it’s either “Enjoy your youth” or “You have to know about the rest of your life NOW at 18 years old.” I’m the type of person who, although I’m really ambitious and really want to live life to the fullest, I also just want a simple life; of making money being an online advice columnist and doing some volunteer work to get out there and meet new people. I’m on Social Security Income because of my disability too, so it’s not like making money will be an issue for me in the economy right now, especially since I’ll probably be living with my parents for a long time. It’s really weird sometimes, because everyone else talks about jobs and what field they want to pursue, but I really just want to take it easy throughout life and hang with my family and friends. Is there anything wrong with that? The other thing is, I REALLY want to go to college too (I’m in a college program now and want to apply to be a regular university student when I graduate), not because I’m being forced to or have bought into the hype of needing that bachelor’s degree for employment, but simply for personal reasons; so I can work hard and have fun with it. Sometimes, I feel like I’m spending time with the wrong crowd and feel left out and I just want to make some new friends, leave all the drama behind and start over with a few really good friends. Is that so wrong? I just want to keep being happy and I think getting that higher education will help, but people usually either say college is holy and will get you everywhere, or that it’s a scam and not worth going because of the debt you’ll get into; being in this free program I know neither of those are the case and just want to find a middle ground with no pushing or anything. I want to apply for scholarships and stuff, but I’m not sure if it would screw up my benefits if I did that, and I don’t know how I’d pay for it and still do everything else because my parents can’t do it all. I just…I’m not there for competition or problems or getting in trouble. I just want to be happy, that’s all, but it’s a crazy world out there and I just feel so helpless. What should I do? Do I even have a chance? =_[ I know this is kind of long, and I’m sorry, but any genuine words of encouragement and support would be appreciated. Thanks….
