I (18M) graduated hs class of 2022 and didnt know what to do with my life. So I enlisted with the USMC before I learned I had scoliosis and now cant walk without a cane. I honestly feel like I have no hope for a future. Ive always wanted to write and work in entertainment, but the field is so saturated and Ive never felt I can make a foothold there. I honestly just wanna give up. I have friends and family, but I dont wanna mooch off them forever

Thanks for sharing. Are you still in the military? Yes, entertainment is a tough field to get into but many have done it and overcome obstacles. Honestly your story sounds kinda like the start to a movie anyways ;)
