24, Struggling with Academics, Jobless, and Feeling Hopeless

Hello everyone,

I’m 24 years old, and life feels like it’s stuck in a rut. I’m not good at academics, don’t have a job, and honestly, I feel ashamed to ask my parents for pocket money at this age.

Watching friends and people my age move forward while I’m still figuring things out is overwhelming.

I know I’m not alone, but it feels like I am. Has anyone been through something similar? How did you navigate through it?

Any advice or stories of overcoming struggles would mean a lot right now. Thank you.
