Comment on what should I do, or what can I even do?

It sounds like you’re in a rough spot. It’s great that you at least have tons of ideas, but it would help to make progress on a few of them. Are any of your ideas reaching out to you as something you should focus on?

Well I dreamed of becoming a concept artist and working in the international market. I honed my skills for about four years, and when I finally got my first commission, the war broke out, money transfers between countries were suspended, and that was it. Then the AI boom began, and I fell into a long-term depression and made the difficult decision to give up on that dream. Then I started studying web design, but I was scared by many people’s opinions that it would be useless due to high competition and the development of AI. Then I started studying backend development. I tried, then gave up, then came back and gave up again. The same thing happened with data analysis, accounting, and many other things. I just don’t like it, and I can’t help myself. But these fields seem like the only way to get out of poverty and perhaps move to another country. Perhaps I’m weak or lazy; I’m very unlucky with my brain.

Honestly with the pandemic + war + AI crap you were born at a very unfortunate time. You’re not crazy for feeling like this trust me. Getting out seems really difficult, places like Georgia, Kazakhstan, etc are making it harder for Russians than it used to be…
