Crossroads of Life

So, I hate sappy posts. And I ain't askin for sap. But life is really odd right now. There was a period of my life years ago where I used to be homeless, sleeping outta my car, hanging out with some pretty loathsome street trash and doing drugs every day, but I had my own personal miracle story where I admitted my faults, got a BPD diagnosis, got sober, and started going to university. Well, that was four years ago. I just graduated from college and have my degree hanging on my wall, and I got to work on some studio films that I thought would advance my career in the film industry, but I don't feel very accomplished. I spent all this time trying to get good grades...and now I did it! From an actual 4-year university! But now what? I had family then to root for me, but I don't have family anymore. A band I formed was going strong, playing gigs and selling merch, but we haven't had much success in a while and I feel we are growing apart as friends and bandmates. I can't seem to find a good career job and keep getting rejection after rejection. Drinking has become a bad habit for me because I'm never an angry/sad drunk, but knowing alcohol is guaranteed to make me happy is even worse IMO because I'll drink up anytime I'm down. Right now I'm staying in a camper on an 80-acre plot of land with no internet (except for my iPhone hotspot) with my pet cat and pet duck (dead serious bout that) and I basically sit around playing guitar all day or walking around in the forest. I mean, it's kinda chill, but I fear that this sorta lifestyle will eventually rob me of the pleasures of having friends, family, and a sense of self. I feel like my own identity is depleting. The face that looks back at me through the reflection of this shattered mirror is not my own. Sometimes I hear the hills speaking to me, but they say nothing of value. Everything is nonsense.
