You don't need to goto university to get a job you enjoy, or a social life. I'm not saying you couldn't, because it really is all about confidence. But you could go for a job in a factory or something that you don't need many qualificaitons for, realistically, you'll be getting okay money and you'll meet new people. Which, at the moment is what you need. As was stated before, these are baby steps, if you don't like the work, you'll just be more motivated to try something else. The only thing worse than failing is not trying at all.
okay, to do this
you need to talk to your parents.
tell them you want to get a job.
make them take you places to put in your resume or pick up a application form.
simply look around your local area and find any kind of place you can work in. No matter what the work. Think about being a garbage collector or anything!
You could also sign up with a employment agency of some sort.
Other things you could do could be
1. Joining a local gym, they will probably plan out your workout for free, this would also greatly increase your confidence.
2. Joining any kind of local club. Fire fighters or... anything.
3. okay, i'm tired and out of ideas.
4. you could get your security licence and work as a security guard.
Everyone is nervous and scared when they're trying new things. ALWAYS. this is because no one is certain of the outcome. but if you try, and you do get somewhere, you will look back and wonder why it was so hard in the first place.. control yourself, suck it in, and go for it dude...
oh i just want to point out that i live in australia, so some the things i talked about may not make much sense to you americans, *shrugs*
