YOU WILL HAVE TO WORK, AND WORK HARD, TO GET WHAT YOU WANT OUT OF LIFE

That is generally what alot of people are trying to avoid. You aren't that special, your parents can't take care of you forever. You aren't royalty. You will have to work. So you might as well gets skills in something you enjoy. Real skills. Or else you will end up the most talented artist at starbucks making the signs.

It will bother you alot less when you are busy.

But you will also be happier than you ever imagined coming home after a long day of work getting some good rest and spending some of the money YOU earned on whatever you want. Not what your parents want.

Work can also be stressful, where you can feel behind schedule the whole time, or can't physically/mentally do something properly, or other employees are taking advantage of you because they're lazy and then you're the only one working, or it's too loud and giving you migraines and taking headache pills is making you angry, or you have to pretend to be happy and enthusiastic and friendly when you're not and you hate being fake, or people are being irrational or intrusive and you want to murder everyone. Now you're in jail for murdering all your co-workers because they're all dickheads and pushed you over the edge. Meh, stupid laws. At least you did the right thing and got a job.

Tbh I don't think anyone is trying to actually help me considering no one here knows my area. Gonna stay safe as God intended. If the city gives me more money, I'll make more moves

Glad that once again we could all collectively give you a lot of advice, so you could ignore every bit of it and keep on keepin' on. Looking forward to your next thread of the same.

Clearly you're perfect just the way you are. I wouldn't change a thing. Besides, changing things is hard and scary. Nobody wants to do that.

I have low self esteem which left me with residue of stubbornness
If I lived near NY I would whip that low self esteem out of you. First, I'd put you through my torture squat sessions that will clear your mental slate to where you won't even remember the definition of self esteem. Second, I'd make you push a 50lb Prowler until you cannot walk. Only then will we be able to rebuild your self esteem. However, you have to want new self esteem and accept that complaining about low self esteem is getting you nowhere. Sometimes the forest has to be burned down to provide nutrients for it to grow back bigger and stronger. Slash and burn, baby.

You could offer your services to Kanye , he's a fellow artist , and he will need your help in his Presidential run . Don't worry about your lack of experience in these matters , he has none so you could both learn together . Reach out to him over the internet and offer your help .

That's perfect! OP needs to start attending a church. Not just on Sundays, but every gathering the church offers. Doesn't matter if he believes or not. The sense of community and general acceptance of newcomers is exactly what he seems to be looking for.

I thought you were joking at first... but yea, this would actually do a lot of good for him. I don't even care if he goes to a synagog, mosque, or a LGBTQQAA community center.

People who care and want you to belong with them; seems like exactly what will help.

Yes! Join a gym and work out, that's good too.
