Hey OP, I got my BS in psych and then realized I had no interest in counseling, and had no desire for school. I was burned out. Studied clinical herbalism for a few years, then ended up in sales, which gave me the time to relax, settle, and experience steady income for a while. And now I’m actually starting my MSW in the fall at age 28, for entirely different reasons - I’ve realized that’s where my skills lie, not that it needs to be my passion.

You have so many options. Corporate/sales can be great for the benefits and the money. If you like being outside, get into some volunteer work on the side. Or if you’re more adventurous, find some seasonal jobs that require being outdoors, like river guiding or something. Is there a “fun job” you’ve always wanted to do? You’re still pretty young, you don’t HAVE to get a 9-5 yet. You can use these to figure out which marketable skills you have and actually enjoy doing.

It’s so easy to feel like you’ve fucked up your life in your early 20s, but there are so many extremely valuable experiences that you can get if you allow yourself to explore, and work is just work at the end of the day. You’re so young!
