Have you been thinking of switching to computer science because you enjoy the part-time job you have coding? Do you love coding? Is it something you kinda enjoy, but are thinking it might be a good career? I didn't go to university, and am damn happy that I didn't. I was very fortunate to work for a large conglomerate when I was 20, where every few months somebody would come along and say " we need somebody to do xyz (Customer Service, Retail Buying, Food & Bev, Accounting, IT, Marketing, Public Relations, etc, etc). This gave me experience in a huge diversity of areas, and was a ton of fun and constant learning. The reason I mention this, is maybe you need some time away from university? I'm pretty sure most universities offer their students a way to take a semester off or something, don't they? If you took 6 months off, could you work in two different areas that interest you for 3 months each, and see what you like? Or maybe you could continue at uni, but reduce your coarse load while you figure out what direction to take. You may even decide that university isn't important. I think I'd struggle to get through a Google interview, with all the data structure type questions, but I've built some cool industry leading stuff and have a great time in my career so far. You want to dedicate time to SOMETHING YOU WANT TO DO, than dedicate time to finding what it is you want to do. My one other bit of advice is this. If a university degree is something you always thought you'd have, and something that you truly want, don't take too much time working in the real world. I think it gets tough to go back to school after a certain age or time has passed. Also, you get used to have a (hopefully good) income, and you won't want to loose that. Lastly, have you spoken to your friends about your not wanting to talk? Have they noticed a difference? The reason I ask, is it is important to learn how to ask for help, it is important to talk about these sorts of things your thinking with your inner circle. You may find that everybody is feeling the same way, which may go a bit to alleviate your feelings. If not, you can be proud that you didn't cower away in the corner when you've had an issue. Hope that helps.
