I am going back to junior college for an AA. Still, I am not a success. In society's eyes I am a loser. I hide from friends and family out of embarrassment. They all moved on with their lives, but I've been stuck ever since my late 20's.

If you have anything to say, please be kind. Thanks
Treat your depression fully (medication, therapy). Change your job. Read inspiring books. (I am currently reading The Alchemist.) Dream. Plan. Take a chance.

I have failed miserably as well. It is good that your are acknowleding it/ feeling bad about it (It is good that you do not want to settle on a minimum wage job)--I think this is the first step toward leaving the past behind and moving on.
