I'm coming up towards my 24th birthday. I feel like my entire adult life so far has been a waste and I should have died when I was a teenager, because I've accomplished nothing since then. I wasn't really interested in college, but my parents forced me to go. I gave up my entire life to go to an out of state college and was miserable the whole time. Even at the time, I was upset that I was wasting the best years of my life doing something I hated. I graduated in 2012, and since then I've worked a couple different jobs, but they've all been 'teenager' jobs that are low-paying and didn't require a degree. Currently I work in fast food, where I'm the oldest and highest educated employee, even including my managers. The past year in particular has been rough because I've been living with a roommate who is at best an over-controlling bully, and possibly emotionally abusive. I'm financially trapped in a situation that is making my depression worse, and I don't see any way out.

The last seven years of my life have been a complete waste, and there's no way to get those years back or make them worth anything. I've been through so much pain, and gotten nothing out of it. I feel like I have no future left, I'm too old to restart my life and there's nothing to live for. All that's left is more of the same. At this point, there's not even any point to dying, I'd need to go back in time and die years ago.
