Hello, I'm a 21 year old guy living in Canada, Vancouver BC.I came here looking for advice because for the past few years I've been trying to find out what to go to school for but I could not decide on anything. Some background on me, from when I was old enough to attend school, I was moving around from school to school due to family problems, and parents just wanting to move somewhere else. That led me to go to 10 different elementary schools. Essentially I have no foundation for any math/science because as soon as I would get settled into a class/school I would have to leave to start a new one. On top of that I was bullied at every school I went to, with my parents arguing (they are separated for the past 10 years). In high school I managed to be able to stay at only one until I graduated. High school wasn't much different because I flunked every class i had from grade 8 - 12. During grade 10 I got kicked out and moved to a learning centre/special school for skipping classes. I just barely dragged myself through to graduate a few months late. Fast forward to today, I don't know what to do in life. I'm scared of math, I can do basic math but very basic level. I've had people in my life tell me that math is something I can get good at if I just practice but the thought of math gives me some sort of anxiety and I just don't want to touch it again. There have been a few degrees that I was looking at in the field of computers (IT) but require a higher % in math.My hobbies are my car and games. 2 years ago I applied for an automechanics program at a school nearby, but dropped out last minute because I could not see myself working that job for the rest of my life due to the labor. Originally I wanted to be a psychologist/counselor, but that was before. I just feel like I've changed since then and I'm not as a compassionate person so I wouldn't suit the job.So please reddit, give me some suggestions in degrees that don't require any math and science preferably. No labor because I've tried working it and it's not for me. I'm good with computers and technology and like learning about it. I don't want to sound like a choosing beggar but no dead end jobs and good pay. I'm half intro/extrovert, I don't mind working with people but worked a few retail jobs before and it cannot be a career for me. So I can deal with people to a certain extent but not a career around it.Thank you for reading this and taking the time to respond!
