F(19) need help with direction of my life

Serious

Hi! As the title says, I'm currently very confused on how to take action and figure out the rest of my life. I know everyone says early adulthood is very confusing, but I am very lost. I'm in my Sophomore year of Community College, but I feel stuck. For context, I have severe ADHD and depression that can go from manageable to overtaking my life. Due to recent events, I have no insurance and am unable to get the medications I need which help me out a lot with procrastination and focus on schoolwork. But because of the lack of these, I find myself struggling to an extreme in my classes and kinda got hit with a realization. I don't really like school, nor am I really passionate about what I thought I'd major in after getting my Associate's. My boyfriend is a Physics major and is extremely passionate, and other friends of mine are also very firm and concentrated on what they want to do. I try not to compare myself, but I feel so lost and I don't know what to do. I honestly mostly go to school to please my parents, but even before graduating high school I was never a big fan of school. I just don't really know what to do with my life. I feel as though I'm wasting my time, but at the same time I'm scared of falling behind my peers. Does anyone have any suggestions?
