Didn't even touch this thing because of the worse-than-pajeet shilling teams 24/7.

Seriousposting for the first time in months. Please respond.

I'm turning 25 next year and I'm a high school dropout with a shit resume (just minwage jobs, massive gaps in the past 3 years because I lost my way, got depressed and went NEET after turning 21yo)
I was happy as fuck, moving on up in life and had 10k cash in the bank at age 20(!!!) and I fucking blew it all in a year. Now 3 years later I'm several thousand dollars in debt and NEET. Due to being a dropout I don't see how I can get into anything other than a community college which may as well be nothing. As much as I enjoyed working in kitchens free from corporate drones and HR harpies, it's not worth the physical toll and late-night lifestyle anymore for the shit pay.
People always ask what uni I went to or what I majored in because I'm well-read and """smart""" (I always scored top 1-2% on standardized tests). I have been seriously considering lying about having something stupid like an English degree for jobs that have a bachelor's as a requirement but this is a gamble and not a long-term solution. I live in Toronto and you can't even get an apprenticeship in a trade without connections (union cap on apprentices bullshit).
I am fully aware that this is my last year to get my shit together or I will be a banklet compared to my peers at age 30 and beyond.

What the fuck do I do? I want out of this fucking country and I trapped myself like a retard. I know I am intellectually capable of going to university but I'm pretty sure I cucked myself out of it by dropping out. I also don't know if it's even worth it to graduate around 30 when degree inflation makes them less and less valuable (this is IF I could even get into a decent uni). Please share your wisdom, elders. My soul is dying.
