For me I am 26 Year's Old and I am still pursuing My Driving Tragically, I've had a lot of Prior and Current Set Issues with that, I can Pay for that at the moment fortunately though, I also don't have Payed Work History, Just 11 Month's Volunteer In a Salvo's Role In something that I didn't want, I don't have any Academic Entry/Level or Interest for a Generic UNIVERSITY Course to prosper me a Bachelor Degree, and the Responsibility Element next to TAFE, Is harder to adjust to for my position, I don't like anything at TAFE, My Only Generic Educational Curriculum towards Traditional Study was Nutrition, but If If I can't handle a Bachelor Degree, than It's Just a Cert IV at TAFE, I don't want Entry Job's, Retail, Hospitality and Factory and I don't want Construction, Apprenticeships or Trades

I don't have any Friend's without Standard Driving and Work, you feel In valuable to have any, and you feel Ugly without Women Experience too

My Father Oppresses me from Talking about my Problem's, and my Mother Speaks Positively but than She act's like I'm complaining and that Change Is Just not going to Happen, She treats me as a Special Individual, and accepts my Life to be Meaningless

For me I am wanting to be Creative with Music, but I feel Under Confident with my Father Living at Home, I also wouldn't want that Direction with a Hopeful Generic Status Life, and I'm not Extroverted for a Stage, My Personality still deeply want's to be Creative and Talented, as a Hobbie, I also wouldn't want Company that I don't Relate or Like

There's Really No Alternatives, as Creativity Is the Main Fulfillment and Interest, Hope for me, and It's not Just a Reality of a Pathway that wouldn't suit me, It's something that seems as the only Suited thing, I Just can't make sense of my Life, and with me, No one can understand, They only give me Wishful thinking

Hi, welcome

I'm sorry you havent had a reply before now.

The first thing that pops up in my mind is- have you considered the defence force? It's not for everyone but they have a long list of professions to choose from including musicians, full pay, travel, friends, accommodation and a worthy cause.

I cant think of anything else ATM.

Reply anytime.

Hi BabySteps,

I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through at the moment. I can definitely relate to the feeling of not fitting into the typical career path or life path in general.

We live in a super cool time where people are able to turn their hobbies and interests into their career, through many different ways. I did a Bachelor of Music at university, and while I didn't particularly like performing because of my anxiety, I started a blog writing music reviews. It was a really fun way to show my passion for music, be creative, not have to talk to anyone else and I even made some money!

The classic life-path isn't suited to everybody, but when you think outside of the box there are definitely opportunities out there. I highly recommend speaking to a professional as well to delve deep into how you're feeling and you may get a clearer sense of what you might like to do.
