I am but a lowly 17 year old, without a job, without a driver's license.......and I probably can't even finish college due to my inability to get a scholarship and because of my anxiety issues......pls.....someone help me.....jazakallaha khair

The muslim world is under the great tribulation that Prophet Muhammad :saws: prophesied because of its greed for wealth the greatest test for it & the root causes of its infighting seen from many hadiths. Allah has a plan for everyone but its your duty to strive for halal rizk which can be neither reduced or increased . See who is below you.
Let the man riding a bicycle feel happy by watching the one who walks and let the man who walks feel happy with the Lame who crawls and Thank Allah .This is a short world where its happiness & sorrowness are just temporary. Aim for the hereafter whose Happiness is permanent and so its sorrowness.
Bukhari :: Book 9 :: Volume 88 :: Hadith 228
Narrated Abu Al-Minhal:
When Ibn Ziyad and Marwan were in Sham and Ibn Az-Zubair took over the authority in Mecca and Qurra' (the Kharijites) revolted in Basra, I went out with my father to Abu Barza Al-Aslami till we entered upon him in his house while he was sitting in the shade of a room built of cane. So we sat with him and my father started talking to him saying, "O Abu Barza! Don't you see in what dilemma the people has fallen?" The first thing heard him saying "I seek reward from Allah for myself because of being angry and scornful at the Quraish tribe. O you Arabs! You know very well that you were in misery and were few in number and misguided, and that Allah has brought you out of all that with Islam and with Muhammad till He brought you to this state (of prosperity and happiness) which you see now; and it is this worldly wealth and pleasures which has caused mischief to appear among you. The one who is in Sham (i.e., Marwan), by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain: and those who are among you, by Allah, are not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain; and that one who is in Mecca (i.e., Ibn Az-Zubair) by Allah, is not fighting except for the sake of worldly gain."
Bukhari :: Book 4 :: Volume 52 :: Hadith 95
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Allah's Apostle ascended the pulpit and said,
"Nothing worries me as to what will happen to you after me, except the temptation of worldly blessings which will be conferred on you." Then he mentioned the worldly pleasures. He started with the one (i.e. the blessings) and took up the other (i.e. the pleasures). A man got up saying, "O Allah's Apostle! Can the good bring about evil?" The Prophet remained silent and we thought that he was being inspired divinely, so all the people kept silent with awe. Then the Prophet wiped the sweat off his face and asked, "Where is the present questioner?" "Do you think wealth is good?" he repeated thrice, adding, "No doubt, good produces nothing but good. Indeed it is like what grows on the banks of a stream which either kills or nearly kills the grazing animals because of gluttony except the vegetation-eating animal which eats till both its flanks are full (i.e. till it gets satisfied) and then stands in the sun and defecates and urinates and again starts grazing. This worldly property is sweet vegetation. How excellent the wealth of the Muslim is, if it is collected through legal means and is spent in Allah's Cause and on orphans, poor people and travelers. But he who does not take it legally is like an eater who is never satisfied and his wealth will be a witness against him on the Day of Resurrection."
This world is a test for everyone so do not think the rich are the happiest . As per hadiths during the last days the poor will the most happiest and its already seen in statistics
in USA people are more stressed but happy in the poor economy of Nigeria.
