How will I find financial stability if I live in a third world country with a toxic sociopathic/narcissistic mother, I have no skills (at least I think so), no time and therefore no money? - eviltoast

I would like to add a description (details), but it would be a very long text.

In short: I have depression, multiple chronic illnesses, C-PTSD, ADHD (btw, I could treat it with Adderall/Adderall XL, but there all drugs are banned, even for medical purposes), no money to rent on my own, poor physical and mental health, some basic things I don’t have money for, I don’t have a computer and it seems that my laptop will soon broken…

I can’t go to a psychologist because… the quality of education and medicine in this country is terrible, and it’s dangerous to say “everything” here, my mother recently worked, but now she’s left without work and starts doing some kind of crap, she was the one who brought in the income until this time; she feeds me fast food. In this country everyone doesn’t give a sh*t about each other, I am surrounded by “broken” people, this is a country full of cynics, sociopaths, and narcissists (consider mentally ill… and genetically defective, apparently).

Like this… I am spoiled, my life and my future are spoiled.

    It really depends on what you’re aiming for and what your situation is. You know that more than anyone.

    My best advice is to try and learn something you’re genuinely interested in and something the market wants. Web development for example is usually a safe bet. Try to find communities whether local or online where people share the same goal, and surround yourself with people that can help you if you get stuck or give you good advice.

    Ignore your local education if it’s not helping you. There’s all sorts of materials and free courses online for everything. Even if it’s something as simple as cooking, that can be a good goal.

    Most importantly, have patience. Learning something new will take time and effort. Finding a job too might take time, but you can do it. Many people have. I’m also in a poor third world country but managed to get a remote job after finishing college.
