Is it normal to not know what to do with my life.

Well I am 21 and since my senior year in high school I felt confuse, I didn't know what to do or how to be informed and up to date, so I went to a community college and started mixing classes with higher classes that I did not need and I got confuse so I drop out college and didn't go and didn't add classes I went to college for about 2 years and it's been a year that I don't go but I got a feeling that I want to be a highway patrol officer but feel lazy looking online, I really want to do something with my life like being a chp officer but I don't feel the support and the really wants inside of me like this is something that I really want to do but I don't feel like doing it in this point of my life, I feel lazy, jobless and useless I have mixed feelings, so is it normal to feel this way?

    Most of us move through the fog of life grasping for any semblence of a plan or vision to hold on to.

  • Dont want to live but too afraid to kill yourself? join the club I am in college learning a subject that I dont like mainly because nothing in this world interests me but I have to make it so I can live in the future even if it means doing something that doesnt interest me.

    Go to the bookstore, buy the police examination booklet and visit the station, ask when next training camp starts up and start physical training- if you want to be highway patrol you still have to do the training, its easier thangoing to college, A man tried to sue the police department a while back because they wouldn't accept him over his high IQ. I don't know about where you live, but here you are also expected to pass a polygraph test, be of moral upstanding and all that. Internet is a good place to start, but usually just leads to inactivity unless you go and put plans into action.

    i didnt know what i wanted to do til i was 20. i keep sleeping at college. i cant stay focused on subjected im not interested in. then i took a year off and during that time i got an idea of being a hairdresser. i never thought of that before. i enrolled in school, didnt question or think about it. i just did it. and now 9 years later, i love what i do and its took me all around the country working and doing what i love. im glad i had my epiphany! you need to find your passion and do that to make money. or if you want to travel for a few years, do that too. life is short and you have plenty of time to figure it out. we all figure it out at differant times in ours lives. keep your head up and hit the road. it will come to you.

  • You can search for the truth about God. Or, I suppose you could collect stamps or something.

    are you still being financially supported by your parents?
    maybe you should kick yourself out. that way, you'll REALLY have to get hopping to find a job.
