Take the time you need to recover, but you need to never lose sight of the future. It might be frightening to try to pick your life back up again and carry on, but the alternative is to live in a shell doing nothing until you die.

Agreed, I'd say start by picking up a minimum wage job or something to test the waters and re accumulate yourself with a schedule, learning new task ect. ect.
But one thing you gotta remember is recovery time is NOT wasted time if that makes sense, that idea is what gave my mom a second heart attack in two months. Good luck to you anon

Go to college as soon as you are ready, do not become a NEET
