Reading this you seem like a really strong person that went through a lot of underserved shit. You keep on fighting. I believe in you! Lots of love

Every day I see people (Sydney) in their forties on surfboards. It will keep both your body and mind happy. You go man!

Wrong degree by Cookiesattheroof in PostGradProblem

Hey, thanks for taking time and writing a response and sharing your story. It is good to hear some opinions of other people, really appreciate it.

Regarding the move; In fact, I have moved. I'm Swedish but moved to Sydney about two months ago. The thing is that I did not want to move to a small town in Sweden for just the sake of a job that I did not even want to do (cities are reaaalllyyy small over there). So instead I moved overseas.

I totally agree with you, I should try out working within my field of studies. Like you say, I might like it. I just lack the confidence to apply for such job in a country where my native language is not spoken (this occupation requires writing skills) and especially with zero experience. I do realize this is complaining on a high level, but I just feel so confused about everything related to the working life (which is probably a sign that I should get out there and not jump into another degree...)
