    Do you have any passions or interests? Is there no job or career that interests you?

    If those are really the case then I would maybe take some time to evaluate what you enjoy and if you can make a career out of it.
    Some degrees like computer science will always be useful and might be worth studying if you just want a job where you don't need to be talking to much people.
    A degree is useful but don't study something if you don't enjoy it. You only can use the free fees initiative once after all.

    Go volunteer for a year, get paid a small amount while you are doing it, help build a CV, help people who need help and learn about yourself while you're doing it.

    Great advice. Give the leaving your best shot. Maybe by then you'll have developed a few ideas.
