    • What to do when you can't do anything ?

      Title say it all.
      I live in France, I love computer and can nearly fix every problem on them ( exept it's a hardware problem.. I'm not into micro-electronic things ) but I dropped school 2 years ago because of social anxiety.

      I'm actually not doing anything with my life. I'm living at my parents house.. but I'm starting getting bored of doing nothing and getting 0 money ( god damn manga are expensive guys ). I would love to just fix computer because I love doing that but obviously I can't because I don't own degree... and for doing the degree for this I would have to do like 7years of school... But I would be in a class with kids ( I'm actually 18yo and i'll be with some 15yo... ) that don't even wan to study and don't understand the utility of it ( and i will surely drop school because i don't understand the point of going and being with some peoples that don't even wan to study and disturb everyone.. )

      So I'm just here to speak with you about it or even something else. Love you all
      Standing alone doesn't mean I'm alone, It means i'm strong enought to handle things all by myself.

    • Eridicus > If only I could trust me, I would !

      I got another dream that is to open a Meltdown ( a meltdown is a bar e-sports that just do LAN, stream official cups from e-sports ( LoL, sc2, CS:GO and stuff ) but it's need alooot of gold and my familly is kind of poor. ^^

      I also wan to do some manga-coffee where you can just buy a drink, sit on the coffee and read manga ( that the coffee gave for a bail. so... just free if you gave it back ^^ ) but also, this require alot MORE gold than a meltdown i think..

    • If you do want to work and need a degree for that, you could study at home or get a tutor then (im not sure you have this in France) give a test at your Ministry of Education to get the documents showing that you've passed that grade. You'll have to work hard though, studying on your own might seem fun but is a little overwhelming... Consider this option ^^ :brofist:

    • Hey,
      Try to get some informations about distance studies. So you can pass the tests.
      There is a huge difference at the university.
      From my personnal experience :
      I did a baccalauréat S. I did not like it AT ALL. was bored of the mentality etc. After that, I went on a "DUT informatique" you can go there as long as you got the baccalauréat with a correct mark (like 10/12). If you want to work in computer related stuff it might be the best thing to do (pm me if you want some details). Some university allow you to do it by working in a company at the same time also.

      After that for every day life, juste try to find some projects :). It will keep you busy so you won't get bored.

    • I think your idea with the Manga Café actually sounds pretty nice. They have lots of them here in Korea and even though I didn't have the chance to visit one yet, I think they are awesome, haha! But whatever you plan or decide to do, how about trying to find someone who would like to do the same as you?
      For the Manga Café or the Meltdown I mean... maybe there is someone in France who wants to do the same and you can try to get the money together. Look for a part-time job maybe or do whatever gets you money. (Okay, not whatever maybe... haha).
      The thing is, you have a vision or even a dream and I think you can fulfill it, if you are working for it. You don't need to go to school. You don't need to be lucky. It is a hard path, for sure, but thinking of doing several part-time jobs to be able to fulfill my dream doesn't sound too bad to me. I mean, it is only temporary and for a better cause!

      I can understand that you have some limits because of your social anxiety but maybe this helped you somehow. :) :brofist:
      Feel the fear and do it anyway.

    • Well I'm currently searching for some part / full job ( even Mcdo who care after all money is money. ) For this.

      I will just get money and money for it because I'm sure the Manga Café would work. ( Common, it's new here, and it's fab tho )

      For distance studies, I already tried it but again I dropped it because of motivation.. I can't study alone I get distracted by everything ( I mean I even ended doing some search about the price of my Yu-gi-oh cards lmao ) But I'll surely work to do a Manga café for sure !

      Anyways thanks guys I love you all ! :brofist:

      An remember, do a :barrel: roll !

    • Well Posting some news..

      I just did my first week of formation aand... well it's hard ( waking up at the hours i was usually going sleep.. ) but it's worth the try.
      The formation in itself is really what I wanted to do, I learn alot of things I didn't knew and can help peoples when they don't know things I know... It's awesome.

      I will surely work as this for some time and "make a try" about the Manga cafe I wanted to do.

      Also, thanks you bro for everything, wasn't sure about searching for a formation / job or something but some peoples here gave me some really good typs on MP & Topic... And i'm also paid for learning things I like.. It's awesome.

      Love you bros.. I really do.

      *crying abit of joy*
