Feeling stuck and behind

Hi All,

Just wanted to vent/get an outside opinion on things.

From a young age, I've needed to provide/support my mum (mum and dad separated due to dads schizophrenia). Mum and dad tried to make things work, but in the end, it was simply too much to handle. During that time, they were separated. I feel like dad left at a crucial time in any growing boys life. We come from a south east asian background so the mentally we can have sometimes is to just survive. Looking back i feel like I could've gone to school to get a trade or get a better education to get a better career.

I just feel like stuck atm, I'm a 28M still living at home i work an ordinary warehouse job. But I do currently own the house with mum, but that wasn't the plan at all. Step dad skipped out on us. So without a second thought i stepped up when Mum asked to be on the mortgage with her so we didn't need to rent.

I've recently engaged my beautiful girlfriend 7 years. I feel scared sometimes that I won't be able to move on into next step in live, such as buying a house, having kids etc.

I try to keep a positive attitude about most things, it's just hard sometimes.
