These are lies that your brain is telling you. I've only started here but posts like yours have already helped me.
I may not be good at following up, MickeyCheeky, but may I ask why you're stuck with what you are doing? Some other people have asked questions about finding out what you would enjoy. You don't have to answer, I'm just curious if you want to share. I am a professor (are we allowed to state our professions? - too late, but let me know if I shouldn't have) and see students *all the time* who don't know what they want to do. And maybe aren't doing well. I know both of these applied to me for a long time. I don't look at these students as failures. I know other professors don't either. Sometimes it takes a long time to figure out what you're interested in, and competent in. And you don't have to be *great* at it - I'm certainly not great at my job! (just ask my students
Please don't be so hard on yourself. Look at all of the wonderful replies you have received, and how many people care about you.
