It is nothing to do with people dying in the third world, it is to do with I hate myself because I have wasted my life and I look at all the other people my age with chances and opportunties and I have none all because of a degree course.

You can always start again.

Open University, get a 2nd degree while working, that way you can have your cake and eat it.

You've wasted your life and you are ... er, how old? 22?

Think of all those thousands of people who would love a degree (any degree) but who don't have the chance/never had the chance. With a degree there are many many jobs JUST for people with a degree (of any sort). They are called Graduate Fast Track Programmes and Graduate Programmes. They take you in and train you.

All you have to do is: have a degree, find the programmes, apply, attend and interview and not be dim.

I just hate myself for ending up like this just so frustrated and angry at myself for a wasted life and wasting ability. I have ended up just what I didn't want to be.

There are people who find certain things difficult that others do not, you are obviously blessed and have no such problem.

Yeah ok, but phil is allegedly a uni graduate. Surely he has enough brains to deal with a £20 note, or the Uni had no business allowing him to go past the first year? And in philosophy too, which is a highly intellectual subject.

I just spend hours rolling about on the floor in my room just thinking of regrets and holding my head and wanting to pull myself to bits.

I feel quite sorry for him.
I think he's oppressed by his mother.
Fed middle-class twallop all his life about how great life would be with a degree.

.... now he's out the other side he's found out it's only the start of the race and he was expecting the glory and scantily-clad ladies, crowds clapping and adoration.

He feels cheated, let down, misled. And is now wondering how much more of his life has been a big lie.
