22F | Feeling depressed (Want Career Advice)

I can’t believe I’m turning 23 and feel like I am not moving in any direction in life. My efforts just feel so scattered but I can’t gather them because I don’t know which field I should focus on. I am studying biomedical engineering and my GPA in college hasn’t been the best. I don’t know if I chose the wrong major also. People are like so clear on what they want and I’m just here still exploring options. With my parents’ requests for an answer (I know I’m entering Saturn-Sun) and a really bad job market nearing me, I feel like breaking down. It’s been affecting me so badly mentally that I have even stopped my self-maintenance. I really need some kind of guidance on a path to choose because I don’t want to waste my life. I don’t need hope, I just want some insights on my strengths. I have been doing a lot of leadership recently, but even that feels like a distraction. Please help me out.

22F | At a dangerous career crossroad…

I’m at a point where I have to make a decision on a career to undertake. Recently since Aug 2025, I have been getting many leadership opportunities, but I am not sure if it’s leading me to or away from my financial uprising. Even with accomplishments in most of the roles (with one helping me bag my current internship), I am not sure if this is all a distraction and I am built to just develop hard skills on my own. My parents wanted me to study medicine (based on their own consults with astrologers), but I see more interest for law. I don’t want to spoil my life knowing the sacrifices my dad made but am feeling very split on the direction to take. I have tried to study astrology on my own to see if I can make a decision, but that’s also failed. Please advice me where you can. Youth matters like travel, love, marriage have all become secondary in how grave my life sounds at the moment!
