I feel I’m too indicisive to commit to one thing. My mecurial nature makes it difficult…maybe I’m crazy. I don’t think I’ll ever commit to one thing. I think I wanna get my degree but maybe it’s not worth it. Maybe it is worth it cuz it’s an important piece of paper. I’m not even sure I can commit to one MAJOR. I’m decent at everything but will never be great at anything. Who am I fooling? I will commit To something for a week then change my mind.
I called my mom and decided to commit to one major. I will take a different course in writing during every quarter. Then I will graduate with a degree in writing. Then I will have forty different careers the rest of my life. Bouncing from job to job every year. Whatever they may be. Maybe I will find a job I will like but I doubt it’ll last for over a year… My mom told me to take pressure off myself and I agreed. I said I won’t let this dictate my happiness. But yes I will commit to writing major then try a new career every year. I know. Not many places hire people who don’t have longevity capabilities but Idc. I’m the most Indecive person ever.
I experienced the same thing in college. I wanted to Major in Ceramics and get a PhD, but that was not in the cards.
I hear you. Dealing with that also. Only life I do understand is the mental health system so thoughts of being a social worker comes up. I decided to at least look at going back school next year and studying math’s and English to at least fill in my education gaps. Wish I had some advice to give see if this does help any. Is sort of what I looking into at atm.

I’m the same. When I finished high school I got a diploma in natural therapies.
Two years later I was studying marketing.
Then I studied linguistics, changed that to english, some history.
Bah. It’s all been fun.
Maybe take up a trade? I did electrical work for a while and enjoyed that. All kinds of different fields you can look at. Maybe you’re good with your hands or enjoy constructing something? Fixing things, taking them apart, figuring out how they work, etc?
This is me down to a T. Honestly, ever since Roughly 6-8 yrs ago in high school when a guidance counselor first introduced us to a career quiz I’ve gone overboard dreaming up different lives for myself and unfortunately I haven’t stuck with one for more than a month at the most. I even sell the idea to my parents, get euphoric about it thinking this is finally the career then it comes crashing down like 2 days later as I focus on the negative aspects of that particular career. It’s never ending
