I am considerably older but nonetheless, I can relate. I am beyond useless with anything math or science. I'm pretty good on the computer but only as a user; don't ask me how the damn thing actually works.

Questions I would pose to you: What do you LIKE and like to do? What skills do you have--even if you think they are not "career" material? Lately I have been advising younger people--God, I feel old when I say things like that--to go for skilled training, i.e., mechanics, nursing or medical of some kind, cooking, plumbing, whatever. Those type of jobs will always be needed and are no doubt more interesting than sitting in a bland cubicle working for a big corporation. After 30+ years of office work, I kick myself for not learning a trade. I think I would have been far happier.

Just an idea, something to mull.
Thanks for this!
