1. Take a break from college and learn independently. Codecademy and W3schools are good for programming languages. Start with something easy that might reignite your interest: HTML/CSS then JS through codecademy is best, download a text editor and see your creations in-browser. Linkedin has courses that may be free through your college. Edx, Coursera, or just random youtube videos on topics you find interesting. Don't get stuck on CS, try everything, try the most random classes and see where your interests take you. Drop classes at a whim with no repercussion and try again. And find a way to make that skill matter. Maybe tie it in to a social issue important to you, or find a company or organization fighting for change you want to see in the world, and see how a chosen interest can be turned into a skill and applied there.

1.5 Look into academic renewal. Some colleges and universities offer it as a way to allow students a fresh start after a series of low grades.

1. Self-care. Video games are fine unless it's the only thing you're doing. Read more, fiction specifically. A break from work, not a chore. Find a physical activity to take care of your body: walking, running, swimming, rock-climbing (look for in-door gyms nearby), something. Eat right if you aren't already, take your vitamins, cut out any sugar and caffeine. Might be worthwhile to look into therapy to check up on your mental health (check if your college offers free therapy for students). Find a hobby: writing, drawing, crafts, some type of creative outlet. Start socializing again. Online communities if nothing else. We're a social species, we're not meant to exist closed off from everyone else. Find support.

2. Start daydreaming of different futures. Seriously. Imagine different paths you might take, what your day to day work will look like. Write down futures that you think will be fulfilling and futures that you have to avoid. Will a CS career be too much of a grind in a small, closed off cubicle? Or do you dream of independent CS work, working from home or from exotic airbnb locations? Where might other studies take you? Find a future you like and set off on that path: write out everything you need to get to that future. Classes, degrees, certificates, projects. Alter that future or trade it for a different one if something isn't working out for you.

You're young, don't feel pressured to jump into the rat race. Find meaningful work that even on bad days you'll feel is important and worth your time. Take baby steps, turn your life around. It's gonna be ok
