This is the first time making a thread so.. I'm sorry if I mess up somehow.

Anyway. I have been out of school for a long while, hoping that I would have figured out what I want to do for a living. So far, I haven't done anything to help. I have been stuck in one place this whole time. Wasting my life away. I am afraid of the world and all my friends are gone to college. I don't have a job and can't drive due to a fear caused by a past experience.
I have no more friends and my family is a bit scattered. I really miss talking to others who aren't family. I don't really know what to do to go forward and life. I know it's still early but the world makes it seem like its life or death. That I HAVE to choose a path NOW.
Though as of the moment, I just want to talk to people. Make friends and be part of a community.
I'm lost. Any suggestions to what I could do to start?

First of all if you live anywhere other than the city or a densely populated area, you're going to have to get over your fear of driving or start biking places.

Secondly, go to places that seem fun to you and ask them if they're hiring.

I live away from any city areas. Mountains.

Life can seem scary when you are first coming to this transition. That is completely normal. The world we live in is fast paced. It is hard to keep up with this pace, and the honest truth is that even those who made these decisions right now, will most likely crash at some point. Thats part of life. You have to make mistakes, and fail. And at first it is hard to get up from them. But in time, it gets easier.
You should totally chose to do something with your life. Don't just do whatever. Have aim, with the life you chose. But understand that you can chose to do one thing, many things or even doing something and then transition to something else that you like better. You have to experience things and go out them with everything you have. And if thats hard at first, thats ok. It gets easier with every struggle.
And fear? Fear is like a compass. Where ever it points to, thats where you have to go, to be a complete person.
I won't lie to you. Like I said, it is hard at first. But you have to get burned a few times in order to wield the fire of life. Or in my case, you have to get burned a lot of times.
So find something you like. Anything! And put everything you have into it. You don't have to do this thing your whole life, most likely you wont. But it will act as a stepping stone to help you see things from a higher vantage point, and chose from the many options you can see now. Hell, you don't even have to like it that much! But if you like it even a little, pursue it and it will propel you up.
Sorry if thats too much at once. Take it piece by piece. And when you give up? Get back up the next day and try again. Sometimes we have a bad day. But that doesn't determine how tomorrow is going to be.

When you do something that you love and not something that you need to do, you WILL start to get involved with people outside. Because you'll be sharing an interest people with and that's a good place to start your connections.
