I'm goin' crazy with this...What is my problem?

Question

okay, i'll just tell you straight up. when i was 16 years old i did a lot of crime, starting with car robberies, then break ins to people's homes, stealing cars and so on...i am now 18 and i've been straight for almost 2 years and i've been doing the whole job search thing but i have no drive for it whatsoever. as time passes i find myself caring less and less and ready to jump back into doing dirt...what's my problem? is there some way i can flip this passion for illegal sh*t into something positive?

Answer 1

give yourself a pat on the back for realizing this and wnating not to go back, this means you are growing maturing and changing.

what would you like to do with your life, as far as job? don't  just accept any ole job, you'll be unhappy, if you can afford it, try a career counselor, they can help you

Answer 2

You don't have to get a 9-5 job that is boring as h**l. Think outside the box. Maybe you like driving? Try courier stuff, or work at getting your truck license. Truckers make a killing these days. Or go for a trade... tradesmen are in desperate need these days.

Don't just try one thing, not like it, and go back to that sh*t.

And by the way - you may see it as "uncool" but get your as* back to school. You're still really young, and in 15 years you will regret that you didnt finish school.

maybe your problem is that your past isnt quite over. inside of you somewhere you DO want to steal cars and break into homes again. face it, you are a robber even if it means you steal candy from babies. that is how you are. i mean there isnt anything wrong with that, its just that maybe you should try living wiht a family member for a while and maybe they could help you get straight. that or try a program for people that steal. they help you get over your robbing, they even give you a way to make sure you dont do it again.
