How old are you? I was a in a similar boat. The only thing that compelled me to change at all was the severe degradation of my affairs and prospects. Things had to get much much worse for me to care. I'm now 26, in debt, forced to work a horrible min wage job, and only halfway done with a degree I've now spent 5 years pursuing (most of which I fell into sulking and ceased attending). I don't recommend it.

In the early days life was easy, I had financial aid, the confidence of my parents, peers my own age, and so forth. Now I am impossibly estranged and the climb before me is utterly steep. In seeking to escape my troubles I only prolonged them.

Same thing happened to me. I dropped out of University, moved back home, and got a job helping disabled kids. I've been saving up to go to Europe so that I can try to join the FFL in about a year.
You could try that. I no longer think about killing myself or anyone else. Other than terrorists, obviously. And It gives me way more time to read.

Why don't you stop wasting money on a degree and just teach yourself what you want to know? You really don't need that much money to survive, if you're only providing for yourself. Although, I can't speak to the debt thing, because one of the major reasons I dropped out was to avoid accruing massive amounts of student loan debt.

You can easily pay for on campus housing using financial aid. If your Daddy doesn't have money, then you qualify.

Quit making excuses for yourself and try solving your problems. Obviously what you're doing now isn't working. Come up with something else or drop out.

that's because he's claiming you on his tax returns like an idiot.

claim yourself and tell him not to. you will save way more money by qualifying for financial aid than he will by claiming you.

you may need to fill out a tax sheet (I 10?) for employment, I don't really know.

The rules are funny but from what I understand, past a certain age (22?) if you're claiming yourself and you have no wealth/substantial income, then you should qualify.

Be careful because you can't let your gpa fall below 2.0. And for fuck's sake go talk to the financial aid people and figure out just what you need to do.

There is no easy way out of your situation. You need to work things out with your dad. You have every right to assert "Dad I'm claiming myself just so you know, so don't claim me."

That would be illegal and his fault.

But seriously there are no easy ways out. Snap out of it and get to work.

Speed is Jungian approved. Root of neurosis is conflict between conscious and unconscious thought complexes. Amphetamine gives you increased mental energy, expanding the conscious center and temporarily draining the unconscious, giving respite from said neurosis.
