My life actually is a dead end. I still live with my parents, i'm still single, i have a dead end job which makes me ashamed to tell what i do, can't afford college or a technical institute(don't ask community college where i am from that doesn't exist). Everyday i live a life of grief, shame, regret and hate i wish to end but i can't. It's all due to haven't choose wisely how to plan my future. My two brothers have chosen their path to their life(they graduated from college and have a family)and me their big brother stuck in Miserable Life,Failville. I talked to my parents about my plans for my future but they believe i'm selfish and that i shouldn't imitate my brothers. Actually i feel i'm imitating a slacker-life person even i ain't that type of person. I can't stand living this anymore i want to end this for good and have a new life but it's impossible. I feel ashamed of myself. I can't stand this anymore i'm sick of this life of a loser i'm living with me. I want to get rid of this cancer named failure eating my flesh. I want a solution NOW!!!

Don't get caught up in what society expects you to be as far as the term success goes. Think about it, long long long ago no one gave a crap who drove what because cars did not exist, what kind of clothes you wore because you made your own, and in some cultures families live together forever and never move out.

Crap happens, 5 years ago I moved back in with parents and even had to claim bankruptcy because of my asshole ex boyfriend. I'm about to be 31 and just now about to move out. I just started college 3 years ago of which I pay for slowly out of my pocket.

Where there is will there is a way. Start by being grateful for what you have. Food, water, roof on your head, clothes on your back, the fact you are alive, family, etc. Someone somewhere does not have these things.

Some people are happy just living because they are not caught up in the whole captiloism of society and "keeping up with the Joneses" because really the whole mantra of being a loser and being successful in THIS society is a bunch of bull crap.

At least you have a job and get up every day and go to work right? That's a good start. Lot's of people live at home due to the ever changing high cost of living or other circumstances. Look on the bright side, living at home you can save a ton of money
