>>7211886Same shoes, I'm 24 though. Became a recluse and lost all social skills before finding a few jobs and earning enough to feel like I'm not a total failure and force myself out of depression. Best advice I could give you is to start picking yourself up now. Don't wait years like I did. Drop any remaining emotions you have for former friends, if they turned their noses up to you they weren't friends to begin with and holding onto those memories will only keep you in the past. Find new peers or make friends with lonliness. Consider learning a trade or getting your GED, those would be the next best thing to a diploma. If not, you could try your luck at finding a job. Your best bet would be places with high turnover rates(fast food, call centers, temp shit) they suck but it's a paycheck. Don't be afraid to lie about your education for places like that, chances are they won't check it anyways. Otherwise look for more ma' & pa' type businesses who would weigh your character and raw skills more than what's written on your job application. Generally just try to keep yourself occupied with something productive. Work out, meditate, read, never stop learning. If you just eat, fap and play vidya all day you're going to become content with being a NEET nigger and contentedness is the last thing you want in your situation.
And don't hate yourself for the mistakes you've made, learn from them.
