Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

In short, my situation is this: I had a son 3 years ago right after I finished school. I went to study PolSci for a few semesters but got kicked out bc I got very depressive and couldnt even manage to get out of bed and buy food. Then I started studying Economics for 2 semesters but same problem.

Now I dont have anything, my gf and me broke off, I lost all friends bc of depression and dont have a job or any job education. I'm 24 and went back to living at my mom's house. I don't really know what to do now, it is very hard to find a job or an apprenticeship, I feel like a deadbeat (which I probably am tbh). I started taking antidepressants but the depression is just too strong sometimes.

I feel so ashamed of myself bc I have no job and no job education and don't know how I should continue. I'm not suicidal or anything, but I am beginning to lose hope that I will ever be able to feel happy again and the loneliness is killing me.

Any advice would be much appreciated :)

Does it have to be job or apprenticeship? What about a college course? Good way to get out and meet people too. Or if that's not an option, volunteer somewhere for a while, it will improve your mental health, gain work experience and maybe lead to a paid job later.
