Need help with life.

It's never too late to get up. Try to focus on things that will make your life better, and play less games. Whenever you're on the computer, try to do something constructive. (Programming, or something like that)

Getting a job is the next step, you live in the US so I believe that shouldn't be a problem. Perhaps you could try to get a degree in programming as well? Anyway, good luck and I am glad to hear that you're getting rid of your xbox!

I've only really understood lately that gaming is not important (more so, I'm in a phase where it's plain boring to play anything anymore). Even if it is hard to break that addiction, it should be your first step. If you really want to improve your life, start to focus on the boring/negative sides of gaming and you'll quickly move on. Find a creative outlet, or something else besides xbox.

In the recent past, graphics has been my leisure and I made a bit of money on the side. I'm also creative by nature, and haven't drawn a picture in years, so I had to find something to express this creativity. You could try something similar and I'm sure you'll notice a quick change in your view on things.
