The problem is, I don't know what I want out of life right now. I like to drink and party, but that's not a "mission." I would like a wife and children someday,

  Sounds like that's a part of your problem. No sense of belonging/purpose. If you find yourself focusing on "What you want from life" and feel compelled to get an answer, maybe you need to distract yourself mentally from that and not force it. A lot of people mentally struggle when they don't know what they want from life. It can make you feel "worthless". You end up sleeping late because.. why get out of bed.I took 2 years off of work and went through all of this. The answer for me was a) mentally accepting myself and b) find work that I felt good about. e.g, I did a days worth of work. Yes I'm not changing the world or solving Null Pointer Exceptions for everyone, but hey.. fuck it. I'm doing something. I always remind myself to a) Not judge myself so hard because in 200 years or less no one will remember me. Thats okay and b) Life is better when you learn to accept yourself even if you're not gods gift to everyone else.. P.S., Everyone will learn to think of me as an amazing person! I'm just giving everyone time lol jk
