    Okay, I'm considering going to university in October but I am sh!t scared. For many reasons.

    Looking at the course information overwhelmes me. 4 years!!! 4 years!!! I'm studying IT but I only have a short interest in the subject. I have no interests.

    I'm in poverty and can't get a decent job. My careers advisor advised me to take up a university position because it's an extra £800 or more a year income unlike just being on benefits which is considerably less.

    University is fashionable. I don't have any clothes. I am uncertain whether I will be able to fit in. Experience tells me that people see the outside first and then judge you. I am 31 with the mind of a 60 year old. I don't think I'll make any friends which will make 4 years seem like 6.

    I can imagine myself being very unhappy (like now) but I need to do something or else I will go mad.

    I have no desires and no interests and the only reason I'm doing this is because I can't stay on the dole forever. I am a nihilist and nihilists long for the destruction of society not the building up of it. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    hi, im planning on doing a corse at home, but ive been procastinating for ages about it, coz like u said i didnt have any interests either, but i found something i enjoy now and think its the right time to persue it....also studying at home means you can avoid all the worrys of starting a university and not fitting in etc and just get a qualification on your own time. study when your ready, if you r in the UK, look at the Open university they can offer financial support to if ur on a shitty wage. best of luck.
