21 years and counting

[Jade_surreal]

As far back as I can remember I've had an enormous hole in my soul. Where do I fit in, what's going to happen to me, why am I here? I'm 21 years old, was just discharged from the military for medical reasons...mental medical reasons...haven't been to school since high school, don't know what to do, where to go...I just would like some advice, please. Is anyone out there?

I would definitely suggest seeing maybe a counsellor about feelings like this. Maybe starting to talk to a friend or family member if you are uncomfortable seeking professional help, until you are ready to do so. Talking to someone always helps situations, even if its not to get advice, but to just get things off of your chest. If you have no one you feel comfortable talking to, feel free to drop me an e-mail and i'll help any way i can. hope i helped or can help. mel

Jade the first step would be for you to visit a college counselor and take a career assement test. This test will give you some ideas of what types of careers that might be good for your desires and likes in life.

 

You have a place in life, but finding that place is the challenge. So keep looking and don't give up or smiling.

 

Good luck to you.
