Career.. I dont know what I want to do.
The two things that have had my interest for quite a while were : Psychology or Art, and I've basically lost the interest for both of them.. I have had lots of bad and good things that have happened in my life, that most people never experienced. But I've just thought about it all.. and my view on being that has changed, I dont want to listen to people's problems anymore.
And for the art situation. Art is a very tedious thing.. and I know there are tons of jobs that have to do with art, but the only thing is like art or photography ... I dont know that I'm especially good at anything anymore, so i dont know how to find what I want to do.

Maybe give some free advice about: Colleges & Universities?
In art, there are two VERY DISTINCT schools of thought: Fine Arts and Commercial Arts.
Fine Artists are the ones you'll learn about in art history classes. The movers and shakers, if you will, that influence how people make and perceive art.
Commercial Artists are those that basically want to make money. They do work in advertising, illustration and editorial work, and they have to keep very "on top" of current styles and trends in their fields.
When people say "art," it's a very broad term. Photography falls into this category.
But the thing you have to keep in mind, is with art, YOU MUST HAVE A CONCEPT. It doesn't necessarily have to be a difficult concept, [Google "Jackson Pollock"] but all art needs a concept. For example, you could use the experience you described as your concept, and whatever it is that helps you express your concept could be your method.
Art isn't difficult, it just takes a lot of thinking. :)

I dont know anything about art really. but as for psychology, there are a lot of jobs for that. you don't just have to become a psychologist or a counselor. you can get into social work or deal with people who have addictions, you can become a child and youth worker which helps kids that come from bad families. not sure if this link will work but it has a list of jobs in the psychology field: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) this gave you a few more options, good luck!
