Ever since I moved in the new house my life has changed forever. Can't even get a job, but I have 4 months as a night stocker working at Lowes. I applied at store's, but some of them are not looking for anyone right now or they just don't want a washed up kid like me. I just want to leave this cruel state and wonder off somewhere. I know I have a purpose, but don't know where to go. My mind tells me to go back to college and become a bodyguard which I want to do. I need a guidence. I need advice of where and how?

Don"t give up, you just need direction ,take classes on penal law and get you body in good shape, maybe try an acting class. Celebrity body guard service or other"s may hire you.

I'd step back and take a look at what is important to you. The luckiest man on earth is the man who gets paid to do something he would be doing even if he wasn't paid. Use this down time to plan for your future. And never, ever give up!

honestly if i were you i would go to college.... do what you love so you never hate it! and if and when you get a job out of college and it doesnt work for whatever reason you still have a degree in it and can go somewhere else.... education is the foundation to any success!!!! besides would it hurt to learn more? schools fun i think run with it!

I think you have to be a heckuva lot older to be washed up, Stephen. The people above have given some good advice. I'd add -- just take it one small step at a time. Solve one problem at a time. And soon you'll find yourself closer to where you want to be.

I suppose I might draw the ire of some people if I suggested the military as a possible near-future option? (Gulp.)

I tried, but the college said I had to finish high school first.

I was going to post something until I read this. Could not have said it better myself thumbs up

Things are never quite as bad as they seem. And you're a long way from things being truly bad. Be grateful for what you have at this moment, and look forward to what is ahead of you.
