For the people that struggled with finding a career, how did you get over it and what advice would you give?

This week my momma told me that from the day i was born to now (m 23 in 4 days) my grandparents saved up around 10k for me to go to school. I always kinda always wanted to go back to school but now i know i 100% have to but i always struggled so much in choosing a career path for myself that i genuinely want. Now i am very new to reddit and i do want people to tell their story and give me advice but i do want to talk about myself because i do feel thats its relevant in choosing a career path and i also just need to vent. I will create a segment for that for the people who have time to read this or are curious. I will respond to any comments on here or on direct messages.

about me

grew up and still live in quebec, i love life, i love people and i really did become the person i wanted to be in high school when it comes to mentality and physicality but choosing a career as always been so hard for me. Its one of the only big things that i feel i'm missing in my life and sometimes its makes me feel overwhelming especially with my adhd wich i always tried to ignore. I still live with my folks and i have such a good relationship and they always told me to do whatever makes me happy they never forced me to go to school after high school. When it comes to my family and where i'm from school always felt weird, my dad went back to uni in his late 30's, momma didn't really do much in cégep she worked as a cecretaty all my life still does, my sister jojo tried to go in sexology but her grade wasn't good enough so she went into social help and my sister clo had really good grades but school really stressed her out. I grew up around alot of people that dropped out of school in my area and in my friends so all of this left me very confused when it came to school. I didn't have good grades but the last 2 years of high school i enjoyed so i do feel like i would do good in school now that i'm smarter and more mature. The problem is that i am interested in so much that i don't know what to choose😂😂😂i know for a fact i dont want to sit in a office all day and the only exception i have to that is if i'm actually taking to someone and not on a computer so social science could be interesting. I would do trades but only so i can get enough money to get out i dont want to ruin my body, i forgot to say that i currently work in a bakery in a grocery store and i fucking love this job i been there since i was 16. This job helped me build a good work ethic, social skills, i really just am grateful for the fact that i smile everytime i go to work i don't wake up in the morning and feel bad about the fact that i have to go to work. Its just not gonna be enough for my dream wich is building a family and start a clothing brand and it makes me sad that i'll have to leave but its okay i have to. I looked for tuitions in a private school for fashion in montreal and its like 9k a semester so thats out the window, my sister told me to choose something that has a internship so i dont struggle with finding a job in my field wich feels like so many people are struggling with right now. I could keep going but i dont want to make this too long🤣🤣

For anyone that read this whole thing and took time of their day thank you so much😮‍💨🙏like i said genuinely want to hear how people got out of that struggle and want to hear advices but i also just wanted to vent i hope y'all understand. I will replying to any dm's or comments thank you🖤💯
