I take Lexapro for depression and anxiety (OCD). It has helped somewhat but I hope I can stop taking it eventually. I think being an adult will be better because I'll be getting my degree in game programming. Right now I'm stuck at home being lazy most of the time.
cool really
What is cool?
game programming
Yeah, I spend most of my time playing video games so I figured it would a good career to pursue.
The problem is that there is a lot of competition for job among game programmers right now. Too many qualified people all fighting over a small number of jobs.
And of course it doesn't help that almost all employers want someone who already has extensive experience so there are very few entry level jobs and the environment is very close knit so they are more likely to hire a bad programmer that someone in the department knows over a stranger with better qualifications and skills.
I'm not trying to rain on your parade though pursue it if its something you like I'm just warning you that its very hard to get your foot in the door so be prepared to put forth a lot of effort and endure a lot of disappointments.
