So this is my situation. I went to college in the fall but dropped out not because It was too hard, but because I have terrible attention problems and can really only focus on things I enjoy, and I really despised school because it was boring as shit.

Pretty early in the semester I gave up and stopped going to class and fell into a deep depression where I would sleep all day and only go out at night to get high.

After the semester ended I came back home to become an electrician and I missed the social element of college a lot, but at the same time felt relieved that I would never have to spend more time in a boring classroom learning arbitrary information that had absolutely zero real world application, and would quickly be in and out of training school, and making my own way in the world doing something I enjoyed.

So here's where things get screwy. Just recently I was prescribed adderall, and with this medication I feel like I have the focus needed to perform decently in school. I'd regain the social elements of living on campus, and my parents are trying to even bribe me with a $7000 car.(cars are my biggest passion) but at the same time, I looked at the list of majors, and there aren't really any that interest me ( all the good ones require calculus or chemistry which even with adderall I couldn't make myself pay attention to), and to top it off even if I were to get a degree in one of I'd most likely be making less money than I was as an electrician, and doing something I enjoyed much less.

So all in all, I am utterly perplexed what to do. My future seemed laid right out in front of me, such a simple path to success living at home while attending electrician school and becoming employed as one after 8 months,(which is my dream job)

but now I also have the option of returning to school , which I could potentially hate for a potentially useless degree just for a car I love.

What should I do?!!?!

Don't go back to college OP. Clearly you don't want to. Getting a car from your parents is the shittiest reason for forceing several years of struggling to get a degree you don't want upon yourself.

You said the electrician thing will take only 8 months, tell your parents you could always go to college after completing that.
