The very worst thing you can do, is to compare your life to others.
I know from experience about doing that. The BEST thing you can do is to make a realistic plan / goal for yourself you know you can accomplish.
Take baby steps. Tread lightly but with determination.
You can do it. It also really helps if you are single and don't have that distraction in your life to accomplish those baby steps.
Google is your friend. Research and research some more. It may not come to you overnight. But that is what makes it all the more worth it in the end.
Give yourself a break. You can only do so much with what you have.
We have a debilitating mental illness that just plain sucks.
If you live your life trying to please others, you will always be disappointed.

Yeah, as you said, this is a really debilitating mental illness. I wish everybody could understand that. Thank you for your words. Right now im living the way you suggest. Baby steps. Thankfully i have a job, and im trying to do small plans. Like "this week im gonna do this and that". Thats all. Small plans and small victories. Thats the only way i found to keep myself alive right now.
But stop comparing myself to others its so hard. After all we live in a competitive society. Everything its about winning the game of life, and i really feel that i lost a long time ago.
