I think maybe all you need is some time to get a grip of everything . Take some time to forget about all the unhappy stuff that's happening and throw it away for good. Once you're done with it don't ever look back again - since it's the only way to go forward. Heal yourself from within first . Know that sometimes , bad things just happened and it's not entirely your fault. You don't have to feel small or unworthy just because you quit your degree. Education is really important and I couldn't denied that , but you can always go back to school whenever you're ready . Sometimes, people said things that they don't really mean it but maybe that's because they are just really concerned on your well being. It may sound hurtful , but you shouldn't let that to get you . Not everyone that have great degrees can be really successful in life and not everyone without a degree is a failure. Don't be too harsh on yourself, don't lose hope. As long as you learn to forgive yourself , give life a chance , give yourself all the opportunity that you need and work hard , you'll soon shine again . Believe in yourself and believe more in your dreams. I will cheer on you. Never compared yourself to anyone, a little set back doesn't mean that everything is over. You can still rise and win . Please know that dying is not the answer or solution to your problem . You can always seek for help from the counselor , therapist, psychiatrist , social support group and etc. This life is worth fighting and worth living for. Never give up.
