So this will be a long post so just hold on and read through it. I need advice.
I am a 22 year old guy who just graduated from a decent college with a Bachelors Degree in Criminal Justice. My friend convinced me to apply to the State Police Academy with him and so far its been going pretty well. I have been doing great on the written exams and the interviews. However, I know I will not pass the polygraph (lie detector). This is because I have a shady past (prostituting myself to men for money, drunk driving, assault, drugs, buying alcohol for minors; all of these are crimes that will deny my entrance) and my mental state is slipping as well (see pic attached). So I am not going to get in...
I work at a dead-end job that I want to leave as soon as possible and I want to leave my house (still living with my parents) because all they do is fight, work, and blame me for everything. I want to leave but my shitty part time job doesn't pay enough and I cannot find a job anywhere else. If I go into the Army, I'll go through OCS and I'll have to do a similar process and again get denied. Then i'll be stuck as a private digging shit-holes for years.
I just want to be happy and have a purpose and not be anywhere near my family or friends. I want a new start but I dont know what to do. I always wanted to be a gaming YouTuber (or gun channel) but it is damn near impossible to make a living as this unless you are an already established personality... I don't know what to do.
I want to move to either the West Coast or England... I just dont know. Help?
They seriously still use a polygraph test?
> all of these are crimes that will deny my entrance
And for good fucking reason. You do not belong in the police force (at least not in the civilized world)

Sadly, yes. And even if I somehow pass, the interviewer can still deny me if he feels I am not ready or I am lying

I was in a very weird place during college and... its a long story. I want to move past it, but i know i cant

Now that >>17704417 mentions it, you really aren't suited for any sort of law enforcement role whatsoever, considering your extensive history of disregard for the law. What in the world are you even thinking?
>>17704431
Not sure. Thats why I am here
