Feeling empty, and hopeless... : CafeDread | Torhoo darknet markets
For the last three months I have sat at home watching movies and tv shows with absolutely no ambitions, hobbies, goals or plans for life, went to the gym on and off for some time however didn't stick to it... another failure. I don't have a job, I'm going to have to try education again (dropped out earlier this year) although I have no clue on what I will do career wise, can't think of anything that I want to do tbh. I day dream about being wildly rich and successful but the way I'm currently wasting my life away I will end up begging for spare change outside my local supermarket. Today I came to realize after meditating for around 10 minutes and staring at the ceiling for another 30 that this cannot carry on, however I have no clue how I'm supposed to make a change, I have been thinking about getting into hacking/cyber security for the past half a year... lazy mf, but I have certain expenses that need to be taken care of right now and for reasons I cannot get into I can't get a job until maybe the end of the year, and learning cyber is a long, tedious process. Looking at my empty bank account earlier today made me really rack my brain trying to think of how to get some money but my stupid ass couldn't think of shit, apart from selling some old clothes on various marketplaces, and so I ended up on dread, this is unfortunately not the first time I have come to dread for answers and trying to find ways to make some quick money. Anyways thanks for reading, feel free to share the secrets on how to become a millionaire over night (don't try scamming me I have 20 cents to my name 💀)
They'll give you a job, purpose, housing, and a career for the rest of your life if you want it. Not to mention retirement benefits, pension, and other goodies like VA loans, etc.
Everyone thinks they're get deployed to a front line war zone or something. In reality you'll probably get some appointment at a random base inside the USA or somewhere like Japan or another not dangerous place.
They'll ask you about your skills and what you like and put through tests. They'll push you in a direction towards something you're passionate about and grow that skill. Like to cook? The military needs 20,000 chefs. Like tech and computers? They have that for days and you'll be clicking a mouse all the time.
Talk to a recruiter and genuinely keep your mind open and ask tons of questions. You'd be surprised.
(this applies to the USA only; not sure about other countries)
I have many friends who have gone the military route, one joined in his late 30s as an officer with no prior military experience. Some of the guys who are doing the best I know in life went military. Its not all jarhead shit you see in the movies, there are hundreds of thousands of different roles, from comp sci to legal to engineering and everything in between.
Bro, cut yourself some slack. Life is hard af and you're only just starting to figure it out. It takes time but I promise the future holds hope!
