Default My head is about to burst, I need some help.

Prior to graduating high school I had hopes of becoming a lawyer. My father killed those inspirations by relocating and in turn putting me in a very awkward position. I finally decided to get off my ass and do something, I went over to a local college and was told my University level Business classes were not recognized in this province. I've got a high school diploma and I'm being told my credits are recognized? So I figure, instead of sitting around and moping why not take some math/science courses I missed out in high school? I am then told I have to pay $500 per course, I can't manage to keep up with my rent let alone pay for some courses and I have absol. no intentions of taking a gov't loan to take some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ high school courses. I made my around to visiting two colleges and one university/college and I came home feeling the counselor's had no intention of helping me get where I want. I'm really at a loss for words as I feel like a complete and utter loser. I can't get a job because of some stupid mistakes I made at the age of 16 which leaves me unbondable for another year, I can't get into any school, and my parents are on my back. I have no idea what I want to be, I was just tired of same old and decided to register at a local college. As long as i get a foot in things can get better but I can't even do that.

I only have one passion and that's sports. Unfortunately, I didn't take any math or sciences in high school so I doubt I'm qualified to become a therapist of any kind. Man, I'm on the verge of depression.

As for what I took in high school:

World Issues
English
English Lit
Int'l Business
Business Management
And some other course and I had an average of 78-80%. I feel like giving up.
