Unsure of what to do.

Idk if this is the right sub for this, but here we go. Basically, I went to HS and did very well. Straight As, honor roll, yada yada. College was another story. I actually failed a class. Tried my hardest pursuing biology, but just couldn't handle the math and chem. Switched majors and careers a lot, and eventually took a break. Went back out of pressure from my mom and she paid for the 1 class I needed to get an associate's degree in letters arts and sciences. Since then I've worked shitty job after shitty job, mostly quitting, leaving for something else, but this year I have actually been fired from a few. Some of these instances were completely not my fault, but some were. I really do not want to continue this cycle of depression working jobs I hate, that make me miserable, in pain, and just are downright not fun. This may sound childish, but live is short and I don't want to die and be like wow I wished I didnt hate 5 days of my week for 50 years.

So recently I've been unemployed. Decided to go to beauty school, then not, then back to college, then not. Just when I thought I figured it out, I changed my mind again. I have always loved nails and I always wanted to own my own business but that is hard. Schooling needs to be paid out of pocket, and learning to be good enough to even think of charging people is going to take years. So I thought I would pursue a back up plan? Maybe something to do to help pay for school, or while I learn? Or something to fall back on in case this doesnt work? Something I may actually like better than being hunched over someones fingers for 2 hours?

So I'm going back to college. For what is the big question. I like reading, used to dabble in writing, i looooove science and bio but cant handle the math and chem, i have a lot of kidney and bladder problems and have to pee a lot, and I'm definitely alt style with dyed hair, piercings, etc. So I'm considering teaching. Ive always been told I'd be good at it and I think ? I'd like it. But the internet makes it sound sooooo terrible. Grueling hours, no bathroom breaks, shit pay, and basically just a terrible profession. I dont know what exactly I'm looking for, but I have 0 friends. My mom is not supportive unless it involves college and big pay check. My bf supports every decision I make, so its hard to really use him as a bouncing board because he thinks I'm gonna do great at anything I do lol (not a bad thing) but I just need some opinions? Advice? Im 24 btw. So yeah. Guess that's it lol.
