First I am so lonely and can't function Normally which means I can't be able to study or do the exams because of how fucked I am. I noticed from grade 11 i couldn't read or study brutal
I think this is all due to the fact that I am a outcast and It will probably get worse as I continue living on this earth

Don't go if you can't study well. You will perform poorly. I was incredibly depressed and had shit study habits (due to going to a retard high school) when I first entered uni. As a result I failed almost all my classes for the first year and had to drop out. Then after being NEET for a year I went back and did better. But even then my study habits were not great, just enough to get good grades (which doesn't mean much).

When you are burdened by loneliness, you struggle to truly focus on studying. Being in an academic environment you can kind of coast by just getting your assignments done, studying barely enough to do well on exams, and the rest of the time coping with vidya and such. Going from checkpoint to checkpoint while not putting much thought into where it all leads, aside from the generic goal of getting a decent job and making money. But that goal isn't worth it, trust me. Being stuck in a soul-crushing white collar job, and having nothing else going in your life, will drive you mad.

That's where I am now, I even got sick of the copes I used for years to stave off boredom and dread. But in lieu of them I've developed other interests that I can actually focus on. And ever since I've undertaken some projects at home I notice I can study things much better than before. When you are doing something for a purpose other than passing on exam, you will do it much more effectively. If I were to go back to college and study one of the subjects I have interest in, I know I would be fully engaged in it, rather than focusing on the bare minimum to get an A or B in the class.

In point, if there's not something you want to pursue for its own sake, if you can not read a book about a topic and actually follow it with enthusiasm, then you should not bother with college. It may be you're too neurotic to do that yet. I think eventually that fades away; you accept that you're going to live a lonely life, and choose to focus on other things to fill the void. So try to do that, and put some order and purpose (other than foids) to your life, before you bother. In the mean time get an easy job like a security guard where you can read on the job. Maybe take a couple evening classes to see it how it goes.

oh so u think if i went to college feeling like shit its impossible to pass

Not necessarily impossible but much harder. Probably impossible if you go to a competitive school and study something like EE. And even if you pass you'll probably make the wrong career choice. And first consider whether your career choice even needs going to college.

yeah i might do cybersecurity what do u think of that

cybersecurity = talking for 6.5 hours a day about security, evaluating security for 0.5 hours and taking a lunch break for 1 hour. So if you're NT and a good communicator sure otherwise pick something less normie tier like being a developer. Unless you mean being a pentester then just make sure you pass a MENSA IQ test first

And my estimations above were for a productive ITsec day. Usually Im sure it's at least 3 hours of breaks and possibly nearly 0 hours of evaluating security

Depends on what you mean. Being good as a "cybersecurity professional" means being good at talking. But if you meant being a good pentester then you have plenty of free ways to test your skills online before even attempting it

yeah well idk i still have grade 12 left to finish

I almost did that but got cockblocked by the pandemic. Definitely a good market for it. Doesn't require a ton of work mostly tinkering with stuff. But you have to put up with lots of bureaucratic shit like lots of meetings with managers, writing reports, sending out emails. And you'd probably have to spend years in an internship or low level role like NOC tech before you can start doing the real stuff.

Though it's a good example of something that really doesn't need college. It would help with internship opportunities but you could also meet employers by going to hackathons and conventions. Certs would also help. But again you actually need to have a passion for hacking and enjoy messing with computers to get into it, or else it'll suck and you might burn out.

yeah the thing is for example i cant be a doctor or a buisnessman because i am too mentally fucked for it which leaves me with either cybersecurity or something that my brain can handle. though i have a passion for computers so i think cybersecurity is a good career for me
 
yeah well idk i still have grade 12 left to finish

Computer programming is the process of performing a particular computation (or more generally, accomplishing a specific computing result), usually by designing and building an executable computer program.

But if you're NT then sure enjoy improving your social skills

Another thing about cybersec is it's often done by people with experience in other IT fields, like networking or programming. In fact people who actually get cybersec degrees are rare and I'm not sure what good such a degree does.

A really good path if you don't know how much you can take is to start with the CompTIA certs. First the A+ which is piss easy assuming you know how to set up a PC. Then the Net+ which should also be quite easy (you might struggle with some of the TCP/IP fundamentals at first) and can get a job as a network/computer tech.

Then you can start studying for the Sec+ which is a bit more to take in, and that's the point at which you can see if you actually want to do security. Or you could go into programming, network admin or just stick with a technician job. With security you'll get paid more but have to learn to talk better. With the others it will still require some interaction but not much. With all of them there's the benefit of remote work and the job being IMO piss easy once you get it down. Trust me I'm "working" right now.

LOL gym won't improve your social skills, nobody talks to others at the gym. You will improve your social skills just by working a job that involves dealing with people, but I don't think you can ever become truly NT if you're not already.

Yes I've a CS degree and was basically a jack of all trades for a while, which is often who ends up doing cyber sec. Now I do an easy QA automation job and I largely stopped caring about muh career.
