Writing a book isn’t worth it... who wants to put in that much effort.... to write down your thoughts...

I don’t know what to do with life

I enjoyed computer science in school... but I have had 8 jobs in 8 years... I get stressed out from programming... I enjoy talking and also solving problems. I get depressed and think of killing myself.., I have always been handed everything in life.., please help me... I no longer know what I want to do career wise
