I feel you buddy. I feel you completely. And I understand. It can be difficult to feel like you're lost and you've hit a brick wall in your life as I know all too well, as that has caused me depression and high levels of anxiety in my own life. I don't know whether things will get better or not. Maybe they will. But hang in there, and just know that I'm here if you need to talk and you're not the only one stuck at a dead end in your life.
