It's a new year and I want to start my education, and get a job, and not be dead wieght to the world by contributing and doing my part in soceity.
The thing is, that most important jobs require University education. I can't do that, see I've only graduated from ground school, after that I hit a wall. Now I've wasted 4 years of my life in depression and isolation from the world, and I'm still depressed and I still have social phobia and anexiety. I can't talk on the phone and my one on one interaction is very limited, I don't have the social skills/traits that most important jobs require you to have.
And for me to be able to train my social skills, I first need to get an education and then a job so I can interact with people, but what to do when I can't get a job because I lack the social skills and I'm just to nervous around people. Or when I can't get a proper education because of my depression and mental problems.
This makes my choices VERY limited, and I'll never have an important and meaningfull job because most of those jobs require good people skills.
I currently live on disability checks, and I'm not quite sure I'm willing to trade that to work in a grocery store, stocking the shelves with bread.
I just wish I could find something meaningfull to do in life without having to go to school for 7 years and then struggle with a job because of the social implications.
I can't even volounteer work, because then you really need good people/social skills.
Anyone have any good ideas for a job for me? I can do maximum 2-3 year education, and I'm not intrested to work within contruction.
My diagnoses: Asperger Syndrome, OCD, ADHD.
