I think that's my prroblem. I feel trrapped in my life and I don't have the contrrol to change the majorrity of the things that arre causing me strress and making me upset. e.g. A lack of money... but neitherr the skills to earrn morre, orr the opporrtunities wherre I live and not the time orr money to learrn new skills. It's a cirrcle that's out of my contrrol. |

I can't stand it either, I feel like I'll never be able to escape stress factors and health factors (wanna quit drinking and smoking but the stores are everywhere). Sometimes I think the only escape is moving to some place that hasn't been commercialized or industrialized yet, where I can live a simple life devoid of unhealthy pleasures. Can't bring myself to carry out the plan though, as xbox360 is coming out, and new anime, music. etc. I'm trapped indeed! |

it is only you that holds back changes. if you want to improve your life, stop being so down about it. There are lots of things you can do. it is not as if you are to thick to learn new skills. |

Honestly, I feel the lack of control feeling is a perceptual thing. It once took me three years to find a job, and when I did it was a super shitty one. I have left that one for a job that is more dangerous and demanding, but one that I like more. I just got a promotion, and I am hoping that this can be a way out of minimum wage shit jobs, so instead of starting at the bottom, I can start at the middle. I want to eventually open my own business. Its kind of shitty, but if you actually do end up starting in the middle without working at the bottom, either in shit jobs or by going to school you are very lucky. Another thing that works is just blindly applying for a bunch of jobs that you are unqualified for. Statistically, if you get a bunch of interviews, eventually you will get one of them. A lot of companies will make positions for people that seem to want to work there, and that they like, so that they can eventually train them for other positions. Also, a lot of larger companies have training budgets for their employees, so if you work there long enough, you can usually get them to pay for you to get educated. |

Education is a great way to personal freedom! ...too bad the rest of the world don´t have a generous academic education system as we have here in Sweden. |

Fuck it. Just imagine you are dead. It is only holding you back from releasing your true potential.It is not about money or any of that.Do what you want to do.Annoy people while you can. A lot about being adult is being stupid and standing up an being counted and going F you all. I can pay my bills I don't give a rats arse what you think. Then you have children. Game over. |

So true i_x_ten. As we are. I like that. I'm going back to school. I went for 2 years 8 years ago and dropped out. Now I'm going back. I'm getting school loans and majoring in something that is in high demand. Maybe computers. I totally feel trapped too. Going back to school gives hope for empowerment. That's if I can get smart and concur ADD. Doubt it. |

get three credit cards, and then get three more. Pay for your education with the first three, then juggle payments through the other three. There you go. Thats at least 7k-10k for free! |
