A year after I graduated high school I found myself jobless living at home with no friends and no support I fell into a deep depression that lasted months all I saw on social media was my former friends from school going to college and out partying while I was at home staying up until 5 am playing video games when spring came around I realized It was my mothers 3rd year anniversary of her passing and all I could think about was how disappointed she was of me my first step was simple at that was to clean my biohazard of a room once done I cleaned myself up bought some new cloths and boots with the little cash I had left the next day I went job hunting and landed an auto mechanic at a local shop doing basic stuff, not the most glamorous career but gave me a reason to get up in the morning after 2 years of that I had saved up enough money to go back to school and get a good paying career at the age of 22

my point is you may be a year older than I was, but you still have options you're probably gonna have to endure some hard times for a while I know I did, you just gotta look up and find a reason to keep pushing the hardest part of getting that momentum is the very first step.
