From my own experiences of running away from home, finishing school early, etc., I realized that many times we are making our decisions as a reaction to circumstances, and not as a fully conscious being using free choice. That usually doesn't fix anything, because the source of the problem is still there, coming from within and not without.

I suggest to first do some inner work and let go of all attachments and aversions, and then make your decision once your mind is completely clear. Your decisions then come from a position of Love, for new circumstances, for freedom, for the next step in your life, rather than from a position of fear or anger or running away from something. Or perhaps you realize that graduate school is the way to go after all, I don't know. But at that point you will know the right decision, when you're completely at peace with either choice and then you decide.

Anyway, don't stress out about it As you keep developing and becoming more conscious, life almost forces you to make the right decision whether you're willing to or not So just sit back and enjoy the ride
