But I'm 21 without a job and school wise, just high school graduation. I'm what's called a highly sensitive person, which largely feeds into why hitting adult age so to speak, I keep slowing down as things get more complex. Stress and other aspects of my home life largely destroy my strength reserves and some days honestly just making myself take a shower feels like an accomplishment.
I really need to get a job though. I would be more willing to get one once I have my license, but my mom keeps insisting I should just do it, and school, right now. Which sounds again, pathetic, but its an extremely overwhelming thing for me to hear and I often just shut down. The worst part is either way, my mom said this year she's going to start charging me rent for living here. About 150 a month. Which honestly isn't a lot in the grand scheme of things, but it does add stress to the whole situation.
I am vastly wary of doing school, even though CLEP testing and online courses are an option. I'm very slow when it comes to deadlines, and finished high school a year later than others my age, mainly because of being easily overwhelmed.
I don't expect a lot of advice, just encouragement I guess. I honestly don't know how much longer I can stand living in this house, which for me makes me lean towards finding a job or jobs so I can get independent.
I won't get into details, but my parents don't provide a supportive atmosphere in regard to my personal attributes, and though supportive over if I do school, its pretty much only support for what they want me to do.
Which in turn makes it very hard to even think of a job, it took me ages to even get out of a parking lot when I was learning, and still am, to drive. I'm easily overwhelmed by interaction social wise, I crash very easily afterwords, and everything just shuts down including my emotions, causing me to be very distant.
I don't know what step to take...
