I'm pushing 20 and have never had a job and have no license?

I'm 21 and have no job or licence either. I did intend to go to college etc. but I ended up suffering with depression and social anxiety, so that was a big part of my not being able to cope in a work enviroment.

I do get scared that I'll never be able to survive on my own but I know someday I'll get to where I'm meant to be. Just keep hoping and if you do suffer from any sort of illness, seek help.

Relax! So many people are like you. Don't worry about fitting in. Its overrated. focus on doing something... anything.
& don't lie to get a job. don't change the person you are. I am sure you are great!

fuck everyone else you're just going to have to try harder to get one than the average drone bee. Try to get into landscaping or work at a circus type of place. Mcdonalds is always hiring and if you want to try and organize your life join the military because chances are people will tell you at shitty jobs that you're too inexperienced to stock a shelf or roll food over a scanner. sweet catch 22 I know, I'm assuming some people must be born with these skills. Its all about being a good bullshitter anyways

Im 19 now

Never had a job... Why start now when all of my life I'll be working
No license.. No point in having one if i don't own a car
waste of time

Yea I'm lazy & play video games...who cares? Everybody is jealous of me

You are only 19 years old, you still have at least 40 more productive adult years ahead of you to work on those things, there's no rush.

Research some support groups in your area. The costs to go to them are minimal and you seem like you could use some feedback with your anorexia and depression.

When you apply for jobs, tell them how you triumphed over your illness and you're looking to make a fresh start. You don't have to tell them how you were ill though, that's your business, not theirs - if they ask, just say you'd like to keep that part private. Employers want reliable (people who don't show up late or call in sick all the time) workers that will do the job efficiently without a lot of complaining. If you can show them that you can do that, there's no reason why they shouldn't hire you.

Good luck. And don't worry about learning to drive, just stay calm and practice until you feel comfortable with it. It'll come, have patience.

Don't worry so much - I would hire you in an instant if I new who you were. You can get a license but if you live in a big city you may not even need it. Get a passport instead.

everyone goes at their own pace and you obviously had a few hurtles in the way of easily getting a job, lisence, etc. don't be so hard on yourself, forgive yourself for the debt that was created and start to believe that you're not pathetic. whether you believe you can or can't do something, you are right, so try to have a positive attitude about your life and things will eventually fall into place.

uhhh don't give fake info, not good idea
Try to get a job where your dad/mom works at
and for the license, dont let social pressure annoy you

Put in 50 applications 5 will call u back..,lie on your application tell them you worked before they never check... Put fake info... U need a job so u will have money to get things u need.... Your a great person please don't kill yourself!!!

I'm in the same boat. I'm going to be 20 in 2 months, no licence(mainly due to severe axiety whenever I even think of driving, but I've when to the DMV and tried but fell short) and never had a formal job (live kind of when by fast,I've always be so focused on school and not having a license). I'm in college and I'm going to be on my own next year, plus my parents are pressuring me to get one even thought I've applied to almost everywhere in this small college town within walking/biking distance. Its all stressing me out big time. I'm definitely a late bloomer in life.

I not been able to hold a steady job and I have put in over 300 applications already.

Im 20 and in college. I live with my parents as do many other people my age that I know. I have a car and a licence.No problem there. I receive financial aid to pay for personal things or books,etc. My main problem is I dont have a job and pretty much 0 social life. Not even my "real" friends call me to go out with them anymore.I haven't had a job in 3-4 years. I think I suffer from mild social anxiety. I dread just thinking working as a cashier. Can't do it. I wonder what my future awaits

It'll get better.

But why one earth would you be reported due to your weight? I don't get it... Your weight should be your business and no one else's. They shouldn't have been allowed to force you into treatment. That's really fucked up.

You just gotta keep your head up:)

Hey...I didn't get my license till like a few weeks before my 21st birthday. Whenever you feel ready to get your license you'll get it. Just keep working hard at driving and it will happen.

If u could get past the stuff u described then u can get a job. Start somewhere easy like being a cashier or something. If u r ahead in school then that's great u have a step up from everyone else ur age and that might show employers that u r hard working. As for the drivingg thing all u can do is practice and think positively. I hope it works out

Must be a late bloomer. Keep trying and you should be able to obtain a driver's license and acquire a job. Market is tough and if you have a degree, you will be better off. Don't be on welfare or SSDI though, that is lack of integrity.
