I often think I'm wasting my time and life too, because I'm 24 and *still* haven't finished my B.Sc. I don't have any job experience other than fast food and a call centre.
It's OK though. It's not the end of the world. Life isn't about school or making money. We'll be OK. There are lots of other people in this world in very dire straits compared with us.
Maybe try focusing on the good things you have in life. Maybe try looking at things from another angle...pretend you just came from a very poor African village...that you didn't have a house to live in, only a shack, and you didn't have food to eat some days.
Then take a look around you and say, "Wow, I have a room and a bed and cupboards filled with food!" "I don't have to endure hard labour just to earn barely enough to survive on!" "There are fun things to do, like going to the movies, eating out and walking in the park."
I hope that helps you a tiny bit. I know how difficult it is when one is down like that.
