Do you guys feel like you dont know what to do sometimes? Like im a high school dropout with no success getting into a college which has the course I want to do (motor vehicles) I havent gotten any replies tbh, and to think I'm turning into a legal adult (18) next year with so many more responsibilities and tasks that I need to deal with it genuinely feels right around the corner, I mean damn this year has flown by. But does anyone else just feel lost in a way? Its like the previous years when we were all so much more younger, like before covid happened everything was amazing, and since then its just been a spiralling downfall. Idk maybe im just waffling but some days I feel so lost with what im even doing
Life?

I felt this way one point in my life. I had my University chances stifled by COVID and depression in less than a year, and I found myself still feeling like a kid at age 19 - just coasting, working low-wage work, and still living at home. Everything I had in my head about how life was gonna go was gone, and I felt like a failed individual drifting through the weeks. I was lost, I had no backup plan and not many prospects. I was lucky that my parents were kind enough to let me live at home as long as I needed to to figure it out.
I don't have some extremely profound answer that will magically make life have direction again, but what I do know is that you'll find a course-of-life to take in due time as long as you don't give in to the the feeling of being lost in-the-moment.
I will say from the very little experience/exposure I have with auto-work that even if you don't manage to get into a school or college for it, you can still chase getting certifications such as the ASE to add to your resume, which will very much improve the chance of getting work.
I hope this comment is helpful for you.

Yeah I feel like covid just messed everything up for pretty much everyone, just everything went downhill when it hit in 2019 and since then life really hasnt been the same, I miss what life was like before covid struck.
I've still got plans for life, and next year when I turn 18 meaning I'll actually be able to work properly and im blessed that im able to stay with my mum despite me turning into a legal adult. I guess I do have backup plans but my dream has always been to get into the automotive vehicle industry.
I just think that life is going so slow but so quick at the same time, like yeah im decently happy, I get the days where I may feel down but thats just natural as a human yk? I've never been employed as I do a bit of self employment work but its just weird to think im really gonna be out there in the real world next year when I turn 18. I mean it'll be fun but damn its crazy to think about at the same time, knowing that im no longer a teenager after all these years of being one
Thank you for the reply tho I appreciate it alot!
