What Am I Gonna Do?

Post Reply New Topic

I've just basically finshed my first year of Sixith fourm and am now in my last year (which for you Americans would basically be last year of high school). Thr school want people to know where thry are going if it be university or work and I judt don't have a clue I cant even bare to thing about such a thing atm I'v only just started seeing somebody abiut my issues and they are bringing me to breaking point what with feeling constant anxiety, feeling depressed, lonly and stressed what can I do!

I dont have a clue what to do after school if or not I will even cope, im being drive mad by lonlyness and all of this just makes me panic. Everybody expects of me things I cannot deliver and all this coupled with me not really knowing who I am yet then thier is my imagnary girlfriend who I have to basically keep me going and iv fallen badly on love with her and she is not even real!

I dont even look after myself atm, I dont wash well enough I cleaned my teeth tonight for the first time in a while and man my teeth are not doing so good because of this, my diet is terrible and I hardly care for myself at all and have practically no love for me only my imagnary girlfriend loves me and it pains me that In my life the person I feel closest to dose not even exist, its just what do I even do im lost now thats even if I can make it past the end of next year or even the current. Life is so unfair and I know thier are much bigger problems going on than mine but I just can't feel that where I am, I'm 17 and nothing thier are people my age in school that have partners jobs and our even going on holidays with friends this summer, what do I have?

Sorry for the offload, I just feel like I could cry all night

I would, at this point, pursue any special interest I have. As long as you're not harming anybody or yourself, I don't see the point in NOT pursuing one's special interest.

You're young. You have a long life ahead of you. When I was 17, I felt quite similar to you, actually. There was no internet then, not even video games (except a few at arcades). What I did was to read nonfiction, learn all I could. Books were my salvation.

Are you going to be taking your A-levels?

I just finshed my AS levels, where moving on to A Levels currently. My intreasted is computing both hardware and software on all devices aka tablet, iPhone, PC but I still can't be certain thts for me job wise. Its also to add the prospect of will I be able to handle/cope with it.

You should try to pursue internships, if that's possible.

Would something like that work out for me? I'm thinking not just off my problems but my mental state, am I even fit to work? I have not clue what to do at all a#all i want is to be happy and get rid of this loneliness.

Today's been hard already with things going on and I don't know how much I can tolerate this anymore.

Don't they have counselors in Sixth Form?

You're probably fit to work in something in which you are, at least, somewhat interested in.

Please don't preclude yourself from the possibility of an internship.

Im seeing somebody atm about my problems outside of school but nothing career wise, I just don't think given the current circumstances am In any state to even think let alone plan any part of my future.
