(14,881 posts)As others have written, at least you could be out there volunteering. And start working at some shit job -- it doesn't matter if it's flipping burgers. Just do it. And then start looking for a better job. But without some experienceother than sitting at home and feeling sorry for yourself, you're not going to be fit for too much at this point.
We *all* have stories and we all have issues. All of us.The question is are those issues an excuseto not every try or are they simply something we simply have to struggle with.
I feel sorry for you. Your parents should have given you the boot long ago. They aren't doing you any favors, so you need to do it yourself.
I hadn't accomplished much by age 30, and felt like shit on my 30th birthday when I reviewed the prior decade, but at least I had finished a BS degree managed to be self-supporting from age 22 on. Shit jobs, living hand to mouth, but at least I'd made the effort. So there, you've accomplished something. I feel less like a failure in life just having read your OP. And that's pretty darn sad.
