Should I go to uni?

I feel so lost in life, I'm 26 and I still live with family and I work a part time job at a supermarket. I desperately want to move out but I'm having no luck with getting a new full time job and even if i did I dread the thought of working in retail all my life.

I feel so behind everyone else and I have missed out on so much. I did go to college and do an access to HE course in humanities and social sciences and I got pretty good results. The problem is I am just so unsure of what to and if it is worth it.

It’s completely normal to feel overwhelmed and lost when things aren’t aligning the way you’d hoped. First of all, having completed an Access to HE course with great results is a significant achievement—you’re capable of success and growth. You’re not behind; everyone’s path looks different, and there’s no one timeline for these things.

Do what feels right for you, if going to university feels right, then go for it! It’s your journey so do whatever feels most fulfilling.

I wouldnt go to uni just for the sake of going to uni. Especially if you are not sure what you want to do.
Full time jobs wise- a lot of warehouses are taking on staff if that helps.
