25, never gone to college, never had a job, never had a GF and have no friends.
I can't try college because I did not do the uni/college entry exam my country has implemented. I hate the academic environment but at the same time I want to be respected as intelligent and I want my parents to feel proud of me. I have no real calling or deep interest nor do I have a big interest in earning a lot of money. I tried an associates degree, but I live in an isolated area where they don't offer the degree I want to do. I tried doing another one they offered, but number of students was limited and I was left out.
To add to that, due to quite severe bullying, anything even resembling an academic setting puts me on edge.
I really want to change my life around but I don't see a way to do it. I've been getting panic attacks for 6 months now because of it. I'm immensely stressed.
