I'm 22 and feel like I'm in arrested development. I feel like I'm drifting in my work. I feel so behind my peers. I can't visualise being good at any job that makes a good wage. I've just spent years in tit minimum wage customer service jobs. I've achieved nothing in my life.
I feel like I'm a massive failure.
I'm legit still in the same situation I was at 17. I still don't know what career I would be good at. I can't visualise myself actually being good at anything. I have zero transferable skills.
I feel like I'm getting too old to still be in a quandary about my future. Everyone I went to school with is settled, graduated and in their own adult careers. I feel like I need to stick with something because I'm getting too old to be just starting out. I just feel like I'm putting my life at such a detriment. I won't be able to move out, I won't have enough money. I'm terrified I'm putting my future in jeopardy because of how I'm petrified I'll never be able to afford my own property. I'm scared I won't ever settle on a career path. I've jumped from different branches of customer service and hated all of them. I've done shop retail, cafes, call centres and currently work in an opticians.
I've done bits of admin in the call centre and I found it utterly soul destroying. I hate the monotony of it.
I've tried full time education twice but I
I know it's pathetic to say this but I feel like I never received much guidance as to what options were available to me when I was younger. I know it's ridiculous to say this it's difficult on my part for being indecisive but I also struggle with being very hard on myself so I can't ever visualise myself being good enough at anything to do it as a career.
I struggle to engage with full time education. I thrive with heavy structure. I did very well at school due to the structured aspect of it. I've tried full time education twice but I just can't cope with independent learning. I can't engage with it.
I also have dyspraxia so trades like hairdressing or beauty I can't do because I don't have the dexterity in my hands.
Military or police isn't an option due to my mental health history.
I've just worked minimum wage jobs. Even though I got decent grades, I don't feel intelligent. In fact the opposite. I feel like it was all a fluke.
I know it's a cop out but I feel like my school failed me. I didn't receive any guidance as to what was available to me. My school was very classist I feel. Only those who were from a decent area, received any guidance and support regarding their future. Those who didn't , like me, fell by the wayside and were left to figure it out on their own devices. Even if you did okay like me and didn't really know what to do, well that was your problem.
I can't help but feeling I've wasted my potential but I'm getting too old to try and find myself. I feel like I should know myself by now. I'm just really fed up.
I feel trapped in the customer service industry. I feel like I'm never going to be successful.
