So nice of you. I hope what you experienced was a small disturbance due to situations in life and it will be absent forever. It won't come back, don't worry.

If you can manage, try to develop some skill. Hardware related skills are very much in demand. You will need to struggle a bit and need to deal with a lesser pay in the beginning. But in a few years, once have enough experience, you will be able to move to an advisor role.

hi Harry, yes i agree! Learning a new skill is a good way to manage depression and purposelessness. I am trying and have to take small steps. i mean break down this BIG goal into smaller steps. at the moment this step is kind of overwhelming for me. i am NOT computer savvy so maybe i will try learning something new at my sister's shop when i help her out. i will think upon this. thanks for the advice!

Sure. That is why said hard skills.

You can also use your smartphone and YouTube to learn anything of your choice.

There are a lot of people who are not arm-chair warriors. Who like never likes to live their study room chair.
