How Can I Unf*ck my life?

I’m exhausted. Tired of feeling like I don’t know what I’m doing with my life. Tired of being the slow one among my peers. It’s not like I’m not trying or that I’m lazy—I’ve been fighting for myself since the moment I left secondary school. No help, no support. Just me, pushing through every obstacle, but no matter how hard I try, it never seems to be enough.

I left my home country at 18 and moved to the UAE, hoping for a better life. Now, four years later, I’m still struggling—still barely keeping up with rent, groceries, basic necessities, let alone savings or any sense of stability. I feel stuck.

What am I doing wrong? I refuse to give up on myself, but I’ve never been this scared before. I know life is tough, but I’m running out of options. How do I meet people who can actually help me—people who can offer guidance, job opportunities, or connections?

I have computer skills and a strong will to succeed, but I need a real chance. A door to open. A mentor or someone who can guide me in the right direction. If that means leaving the UAE and starting over somewhere else, I’m willing to do that too. I just need the opportunity to find me.

If you’re reading this and you can help—or if you’ve been through something similar and made it out—please reach out. I don’t want to crash alone in silence.
