TDLR: I hate my current life and I'm hesitating to leave everything behind and join the army to rebuild my self and continue studies afterwards.
So I'm writing this because I feel lost. I don't usually ask advice and on this sub I've just been a looker rather than user, but I feel in my context I need guidance.
I turned 18 years old last year. I graduated easily and went on to pursue engineering studies in a good school (I live in France btw. If there are any French people I did a classe préparatoire). After a few months there I realised that I hated it. My life had no real meaning, I hated everyone there, they were fake. Most of them were there because of money and just following their parents' instructions. And then I realised that it was the case for me aswell. In France you go to classe prépa when you're a really good student and that you don't know what to do. Most of classmates were very boring and had never experienced any thrilling in their lives.
Because of the quarantine I went back home to my parents' house. I just hate it. I don't have any real connection with them. They've always put me down, never supported me and are constantly undermining my attempts to become a better person, my friends and my relationships. They didn't even attend when I did a national swimming competition and I had to ask a friend for a ride to get there. They've always told me that'll never make it because I lack discipline and motivation. They also make fun of me when I workout saying that it's just stupid and I'm trying to compensate for my lack of self-confidence. Now I rarely pay attention to them and ignore most of their sneaky passive aggressive attacks to put me down. It's just annoying sometimes seeing friends going running with their parents or playing video games with them. While mine are just my enemies.
Before my dream was just to be rich and find the "one", like any beta would want. Because of various events I completely denied all of that realising it was just a dream that never existed. I discovered this sub, read Rollo Tomassi. And he was right once you know there's no going back. I basically don't have any friends anymore, I all pushed them away because they were either trying to criticise my new MGTOW beliefs or were just annoying and false pricks.
So I'm a point where I've just discovered what life is supposed to be. I basically have nothing me tieing me to my current life and I also hate my current life. My greatest dream is to be self-independent, providing just for myself, doing what I want when I want. I'm not after great riches I just want to be happy.
I'm therefore strongly hesitating to just leave everything behind, join the army for 2-3 years so that I can mature up and acquire discipline. Then continue studies with the money from the army. Basically just starting a new life away from everyone here and never talking to them again. It's just a big decision to take and I'm quite frankly scared of it. It just seems the best option to me. I don't want have a meaningless life where I have to provide for bratty kids sucking away my life force , live with a manipulative wife that doesn't want to fuck me anymore.
So have any of you more experienced users left the house in that manner and have severed all ties with your past in order to create a better and more meaningful future ?
Thank you
