Hey @Johnathon ,
Thank you for posting and sharing how you are feeling at the moment. From what you have described, it is understandable that you feel trapped. I hear that you don't have many friends or close friends, and you don't yet have financial stability.
I'm interested to understand what you'd ideally like to see in your life. Sometimes, it can be very disheartening to see others move on in life while you yourself remain 'stuck' in one place. Please know that this is not uncommon. Many people have similar experiences where they look around and see so many people progress in life, and comparing themselves, they think they haven't done anything. Yet, consider where you were 5 years ago. Are there aspects in your life where you have progressed?
I'm also curious to know how long you have been feeling this way. If it is for an extended period of time, it may be worthwhile speaking to your GP about it. There may be other factors causing you to feel this way. Speaking to a GP or professional may give you more insight into what is happening.
At the same time, so you have someone you trust to talk to? e.g. a family member or therapist? Talking to someone may not solve things, but it can help you feel better to know that you are not alone.
If you feel you want to speak to someone, you can call:
