How do I move forward in life?
This isnt my usual account because i dont particularly want anyone to know im struggling.
I’m from the UK and I’m aware majority of the population are struggling right now too but i feel more behind than everyone around me. I always struggled in school and did terrible on my GCSEs.
No college near me offers the courses I’d want and I have no way to get to the nearest college that does because It’s miles away and I can’t afford transport.
I’ve been bouncing around random jobs doing cash in hand work since I have no forms of ID due to a name change when I was younger and my mum hasn’t helped me at all with completing the original name change which she never did. Only this week have I had my name changed legally (via deed poll) to what I go by day to day.
The job I have currently doesn’t pay me enough money to be happy and is extremely irregular but I’m unable to work anywhere else due to my lack of ID and qualifications.
I don’t want to live my life like this forever so I’ll take any advice to move forward because i feel like time is moving on and im stuck in place with absolutely nobody to help me, feeling like a failure and that I’ve achieved nothing.
Edit: I forgot to mention the work I do is within construction and extremely hard on my body and im beginning to feel the effects of overworking myself because of how little i feel like i achieve from it, which i suppose is why i want out.
