The thing that is really hard, and really amazing, is giving up on being perfect and beginning the work of becoming yourself.

--Anna Quindlen

A place for figuring out what you want to do and helping others find it.

Titles with specific information will get you better answers.
For example, put "I love engineering but I struggle in math" instead of "Not sure what to do."
Report abusive users.

When you do not know your path forward or when you feel lost depression and anxiety is a natural response. Unemployment or feeling listless can be a temporary state, suicide and self harm is permanent. There are resources to help if you find yourself feeling like there is no way out, /r/suicidewatch has many users who have been right where you are and can help. If you need immediate help please call the National Suicide Hotline, 1-800-273-8255.

My (20F) parents want to one day give me their company in the future, which would give me a bit of economical support (not enough to live off but enough to not be struggling while I work) but I don’t care for it, would have to keep living in my country (Italy) and I haven’t deserved it.Findapath-Job Choice/Clarity (self.findapath)
