I am wondering if I can get some advice.(Semi Long, sorry I am bad at taking without details)
I am currently living at home again, after I was in college. I am home because last semester I had a major depressive episode and stopped doing anything, starting really messing up school. My anxiety came back 10 fold. So I thought I will take a break from college and come back in the fall. The idea was to go home and start new meds, to see if it helped any, and to see a therapist. I have been doing both for about 2 months now, and nothing really has changed.
I am freaking out about going back to school. Not only because of what issues might return but because I finally admit I have no freaking clue what I want to do. I love science and technology, but degrees in both require alot of dedication to working at them, and I cant seem to get that dedication down. Math is a killer to me, it isnt that I am not learning it, but I am not a natural at it and so it takes me time to learn, and as I said above I cant get myself to spend that time.
The other thing is that I am running low on money on all fronts. Some stupid loans are trying to get me to pay them, and they say I cant defer them etc. To compound that one, it is under my dads name for me, and he is yelling at me about it, understandable in some ways since it is like $200 a month and he too has issues with money, though less then some of the other family members. I still owe the school for dropping out during the semester(around $500), and it has to be paid before I can go back. I would like to have an apartment outside of the dorms if I go back but have no money to put upfront. There are no jobs in this town, not only because it is small, 5000 or so people, or the fact that I am better at tech jobs and ones outside customer support, but there is nothing, not with the way things are now.
So if you have bothered reading this, which I hope someone did, what are your thoughts on what I should do?
