What should I do with my life?
When I was about 5 years old I was diagnosed with "Asperger's Syndrome". I was a very strange, withdrawn kid, but as I grew older I gradually became more normal. In middle school I had a small group of friends, but I was a very dorky, awkward kid back then with poor hygiene. I went to a special high school for kids with mental issues and/or disabilities and we grew apart. I don't blame them. I graduated from highschool without making any friends. I tried out community college, but quit after a single semester. I stayed inside the next couple months, before trying out trade school to become an IT worker. I stuck with it for about a month before quitting. I definitely won't try anything like that again. I didn't do much for the next few months. Although i'm a virgin, I accepted my bisexuality much more, and lost about 30 pounds, started taking much better care of my skin, teeth, and hair, gave myself a better haircut and started dressing more fashionably. I knew i was bisexual since i was 17, but i just didn't think about it as much, I guess; my parents still don't know, but I think my sister knows. I also experimented a bit with alcohol and DXM, but that's not really a big deal. I briefly went to a sort of halfway house for young men with asperger's, but the guys there seemed much more neurotic than me, no offense, and I really doubt I have asperger's now. I went off my SSRI's a few months ago (got put on them for depression when I was 10) and I feel no difference. I got a job at a Target store and held it for about 3 weeks, before i quit.
Okay, now you're up to speed. I don't trust therapists, i have tried one before and i didn't connect with her at all. Why would you pay someone to help you with your life? They have no financial incentive to get you off therapy and it seems they only want money from their customers (patients? clients? haha, yeah right) . This is why i trust my family much more and I am asking you great volunteers on Y! for advice. I have no friends other than family, i have absolutely no direction in life. I need some way to become financially independent and/or gain self discipline.

Louise Hay wrote an excellent book… "You Can Heal Your Life". I also read lots of other books to lose my victim hood about life and I learned to live with myself.
