I'm locked into a major I hate since my GPA is 1.97 and I need a 3.0 to swap. I'm only in bio because my parents kept pushing doctor doctor doctor on me and I had no interests in anything, so I went with it. Even now I still have no interest in anything. I want to drop out since I am a failure in every class I take, major or elective, but then I'd be living on the streets. Everyone I know has had a miraculous event that gave them a purpose and career goal and they love life, and here I am, a piece of shit who is moments away from being a bum or doing something drastic.
You should consider dropping out and figuring out what you want to do with your life. It's clearly not what your parents are pushing on you, and it would probably be better to get a fresh start at a new university with a new GPA if you end up deciding that your path involves going to college in a different field.
It's time for you to start making your own decisions about the path you are on.
I would love to drop out and work while I figure something out. Problem is that I have no backup plan. If I drop out, it's clear I am out of the house. Now, I wouldn't mind living in my car, but then I can't use my desktop computer, no way to shower (heard getting a gym membership would solve that, but monthy or yearly fees are still over my budget, I live by the penny due to paying for school every other semester), and I've heard it could cause issues with getting better jobs.
A fresh start at a new Uni is an option, my dad and I actually went over that last year, but it would be a waste if I don't have any interests in other majors.
But here's the biggest problem. Every summer since I've been in high school I have been mostly sitting around, bored. And every day since I've started college, right after HS, has been me trying to find something. I don't know how to put it, but there just isn't anything for me out there. I feel like I have no other choice but to eat shit and live a miserable life doing stuff I hate. I swear, my cognitive abilities have been declining rapidly ever since HS ended. Just everything I do, I'm a complete mess and a failure, and this, couple with no interests, means no motivation for life.
I know all I'm doing is complaining, but I don't know what else to do. I really wish some sort of divine intervention could just bestow upon me a cure for life's problems. I'm tired of all this stress, not everyone is meant to be happy.
Are you the one who goes to SBU? If so, undergrads are really competitive here and bio is probably the most competitive with all of the premeds.
You need to put in lots of hard work, that's it. ---
