Please consider getting professional psychiatric help for your own sake if therapy isn't working well. You're taking the risk of being bitter, resentful, and deeply insecure for the rest of your life or worse risking substance abuse in the future. No matter what you might choose to do in the future you have to know that you can't throw away your life like this. Do yourself a favour, cut off social media completely and seek professional help

 

I wish I had the background to quit finance but not sure how I'll ever afford a house otherwise. Please seek help man... fuck a career most of us hate this shit. Chin up, tomorrow is always a new day.

 

You complain constantly about how failing your A-levels and going to a nontarget unfairly hold you back, yet you haven’t even bothered to learn your technicals/keep them fresh? Maybe if you spent your time studying techs instead of ranting on this site you would have gotten this IB job

 

Grass is always greener on the other side. Jobs do not define you. Are there other things/hobbies that you enjoy? Are successful at? I bet there are many. I know so many people that get upset about their weight and have difficult being in shape and they would do so much to what you say how in shape you are. There are many people that you probably look up to that don’t have that glamorous life you think they have. Everyone is trying to prove that their life is awesome. No point of comparing when you don’t know what it’s actually like in their life. You control your own and I already see success getting that interview. Do not give up, and that’s not even just about career. Plz get help
