I'm at a loss for actions you guys.
I've been thinking really hard about writing about my issue, to the point I even did a draft of this very post in order to formulate my thoughts, since English is not my mother tongue (French).
I'm a 22 years old male who basically failed everything. I used to be anorexic in highschool, evidently I didn't focus on work and I was just an awkward mess all along. I still don't know what to do, having failed all the prospects I had (missed both tries for med studies).
I'm currently studying to be a nurse, a job in a field I have absolutely no will to work in anymore. It's a dead end occupation with no prospects, exceptionally so in France, I mainly picked that field out of desperation and fear of not having something to fall back on. But I keep on losing my time since I'm 18.
I had a sort of depression after failing in the first field I initially picked, which lasted long enough to fuck me up: lost contact with everyone, got isolated even more. I lost a large amount of time and, consequently, opportunities; now that I have enough courage to get up and do something, I feel like it's already too late.
How do I deal with this? It's not bothering me as much as I'd like it to, I never felt more peaceful since I left all my former accointances. But I want now more than ever to get a good career and embrace life.

Better to sort things out properly now rather than going back later and trying to fix them again
First find something that you caould actually see yourself doing. That can be something involving manual work, e.g. being a mechanic, nurse (as you are studying for right now), carpenter, forester, policeman etc. Or you might want to go into something involving mental or organisational work, e.g. becoming a scientist, IT guy, businessman, or a teacher.
You should figure this out properly first, and then go through with it. You won't get anywhere if you're not confident in where you're going being somewhere that you actually want to be going
