I went to university, pretty much by default.
I quit after 3 and a bit years, with no a degree and plenty of debt.
Totally worth it.

I have failed two separate degrees* about two thirds of the way through due to depression
Depression is a cunt.
I now work as a somewhat underpaid scientific engineer - it pays a wage for sure, but nowhere near the money I should have been making.

*Psychology and applied physics, if you are even remotely interested.

Sad.
Psychology was my subject, too, but I wasn't suffering from depression, I was just lazy.
