..I'm 22 and I still live with my parents. I have no job. I failed college and never graduated. They think I've wasted their money. They're angry at me everyday. I don't know what to do.

Their anger is both directed at you and fueled by a feeling of their own failure. This isn't about college achievement anymore, its about answering the question, how can you make a difference in the lives of your friends and family, and also those you don't even know. First, visit your local 'jobs' office, there will be someone there with free council that can help you do things like discover what you are good at and what jobs might fit. Second, find a job. Even if it is washing dishes once a week, it starts the ball rolling in the right direction. Use the energy that you have been using to be defensive with your parents, and set and achieve one goal to get out and earn in the world each day. Last, find a place of worship near you that fits your needs (focuses on young adults) and then pray about it. Even if you are not a person of faith.. try it.
