Im 23 and one year out of college and i see no point in anything. I graduated with a shitty degree i figured out far too late i dont really care about. I have no idea what i want to do with my life and i dont have the resources to spend another few years and thousands of dollars for another bad degree ill end up not liking all over again. I had a minimum wage gas station job for a while and finally found what i thought would be something better but it turned out to be absolutely horrible and borderline unsafe so i quit after a month and now im back to being jobless and my hopes are at an all time low. The best i can hopr for is maybe making 15 an hour one day if im lucky which is still nothing.

My family is the only reason im not homeless but i think that will be enevitable in the future though once they pass away or, more likely, get tired of me and see me for the parasite i am. Im such a washout and every one of my friends and people i knew in high school are doing worlds better than me, I FAILED AT LIFE.

I know everyone says the dreaded s word isnt the answer but im barely holding it together now, idk how ill ever have a good life especially when the state of the world will only keep getting worse and worse each year. Things will keep getting more expensive, jobs will get even harder to find. Is it worth it to be alive when youre trapped in perpetual homelessness and constantly fighting to stay alive with no hope of things ever improving?

We have been together for nearly a year and are semi-long distance, i see her most weekends for a full day or 2 and she lives 1.5 hours away. She has brought up to me twice now that she feels disconnected compared to how we used to be, neither of us are fully sure what happened. I have tried to make an effort to talk more and be as open with her as possible but im not sure if it is enough. This last time she brought this up (arround a month ago) she said she wants us to make an effort to be connected but if things dont change then she wants to break up. I asked her last week if she still feels this way and she said she isnt sure yet.

Overall i feel like im in relationship limbo, the will we wont we feelings have made me a nervous wreck with how bad my anxiety is. I really love her and i want us to work but i have a hard time fully being commited to us with the looming threat of breakup in the back of my mind.

Is this anxiety a "skill issue" that should be overcame/not worried about or is this an unhealthy dynamic for us to be in? I really dont want to hurt her feelings or break up unnessicarly but this uncertainty about us is killing me.

Tl;dr me and my gf are in a bit of a limbo right now as to if we will break up and the uncertainty is getting to me and im unsure of how to handle this.

I graduated from college with a Bachlor in psychology and i realized far too late im not really interested in psychology. Is it possible for me to get a job that isnt flipping burgers or ringing people up on a dollar store cash register? Im having a hard time figuring out what i want to do with my life and all ghe suggestions i see online just tell me to get a masters or do a bunch of online classes and certifications for stuff. I dont have a lot of money or years of time to throw at stuff like that and im hesitant to after my choice in undergrad major showed me how bad at making decisions i am.

What do people with a "generic" bachelors do for work most often? I know i cant do much in the field of psychology and im ok with that but it makes me feel like i wasted the past 4 years of my life and thousands of dollars for nothing when all i seem to get interviews for are jobs high schoolers do that pay a dollar above minimum wage.

I graduated with a bachelors in psychology arround 1 year ago. About a year before graduation i realized my original plans of going to med school for psychiatry wouldnt pan out and i wasnt actually interested in psychology really but i was too late to change course so i did my last 2 semesters and graduated. I looked for a job for nearly 4 months after this and finally got a minimum wage one at a gas station i worked at and i only got on there since i had it as a summer job the previous year. I worked there for months and i ended up finding a better job (or so i thought) at a phone store. It was terrible, i didnt get trained properly at all yet was left alone in the store for whole shifts really early on and i didnt really feel safe there. I tried to stick it out for a month while desperately searching for jobs but the stress got to me and i quit last week. Now im unemployed and back where i started a year ago.

This whole experience has made me ponder my place in the universe. Is stress and suffering all there is in the world? I have no idea what to do with my life despite trying to figure this out. Every choice i make is the wrong one it seems. Im so lucky my family lets me live with them still, once they pass away or get tired of me im literally fucked, ill be homeless in rural appalachia. Idk how ill ever gain independance or find any sort of happiness with how i am now, especially with how the economy is getting worse and wont ever improve.

Is this all there is? Leeching off my family till i become homeless and die? Money is all that matters and i dont have it and getting it is impossible and only getting more impossible each day. I dont have any way to cope with this so i dont think about this stuff but its getting harder and harder to ignore the fact im a fucking washup looser who has already failed at life.

So much is happening with me right now. I started a new job a month ago and i was hopeful and really tried to stick things out there but they set me up for failure and i generally didnt feel safe there so last week i quit without another job lined up. I know its a risky move to do but i couldnt take it there anymore and i had a full on mental breakdown while being all alone in the store on my last day there. Im not going to be homeless or in imediate danger as i live with my family still and have some saveings to coast on while i look for another job. I did at least contact my old job and they said they would be happy to have me back if something opens up but they are full at the moment.

In addition to this, one of my 2 cats died arround 3 weeks ago. She was arround 12 years old and it happened pretty suddenly. I loved her so much and i miss her dearly.

And as a cherry on top of the first two things i think me and my gf will be splitting up soon as well. We have been together arround a year and she mentioned that she feels we have grown distant compared to early on in our relationship. Ive tried to make things better but i dont think its worked and she seems to have less energy than ever in our conversations.

Im almost through my 4th week and i cant take it anymore im not being shown how to do anything. I was left alone again for the 4th time the past 2 weeks and it was a shitshow. I had to call my manager for each and every transaction and it stressed me out so much. Ill be expected to work 6 hours on my own in a few days and i just cant do that. I feel so sad but this job isnt for me. I have some money to coast on but no other job linned up. Im so stressed out.

I would just vanish and not show up tomorrow but i gotta drop off my key they gave me. Its going to be so awakward and uncomfortable. Im really socially anxious and i hate confrontation.

Im on week 4 of my very first sales job at a phone store and this weekend ill be left alone on a 6 hour shift. Buisness is slow here and im not able to practice in any way unless a customer is in the store. As a result i dont know how to do most things in here still. I have my manager's number and a coworker's number but them walking me through things over the phone is not ideal at all with how long it takes to do certain things. I told my manager im not ready but she reassured me everything will be ok and left it at that.

Ive been left alone for 1-2 hours several times over the course of the past week and i about had a nervous meltdown every time. Idk how ill survive 6 hours alone if i can barely do 2

Im so scared and tettering between telling myself i just need to be more confident in myself and that ive been undertrained and setup for failure.

3 weeks ago i started my first sales job at a cellphone store. Before this i had been stuck in retail so i thought this was my big break but im not so sure about this place after being here for 3 weeks.

Buisness is slow here and as i result i havent had a ton of chances to actually do stuff key to my job like ringing people up and making account changes. Despite this imbeing left alone in the store more and more and at the end of this week ill have a full 6 hour shift alone. I dont feel remotely ready to be left alone here yet even though its been 3 weeks. I have been given my manager and coworker's number in case i get stuck on a transaction but this setup of them walking me through things over the phone isnt ideal and i about had a panic attack several times when i had to do this but got stuck or confused.

In addition im also not super knowledgable on promotions and specs of the devices here which is less of a problem. There is a resource i can consult for info on that stuff but having to look everything up is honestly a bad look and might make customers doubt i can handle what they need help with.

Ive told others about this and most of them say its just my anxiety talking and im more prepared than i realize, that everything will work out. They also said i should stick things out for at least 6 months before i decide to leave. Assuming i dont get fired before then thats a long time to stay here and the idea of me being as anxious as i have been the past 3 weeks for that long makes my stomach turn.

Should i listen to my gut that im being setup for failure and this job isnt for me or should i ignore all of that and stay here anyways?
