So Im 29,
Since I was 17 I have had bad depression and found it impossible to maintain friendships, Ive also never had a relationship.
In recent years all I can think about is how much of a loser I am for not owning a house, after covid I stopped renting and moved back home.
Im working two jobs, 40k in my main role in marketing and get about 130 a week in my weekend work. People online have said nasty things about how 40k is a low salary and been looking down on the qualifications I have, Arts degree in Sociology. This has made me intensely depressed when reaching out for help before
So I want to ask, will buying a home help me feel normal and happy? Or will my depression continue because of the low status of my degree, being single etc?
