Why should I keep living?

I don't see the point. I feel as an ultimate failure. I don't plan on killing myself but I still feel like "it's the only way out." I just had a huge car bill over $2000 for fixing my car. There were so many things wrong with it that the mechanic suggested poor driving. Everything he listed as the poor driving, I do not do and my parents don't believe me that I don't. I feel like a piece of crap not having their trust. I don't have the money to fix my car, and my parents keep emotionally black mailing me to get something done to the point where I can pay them back for the carBut working part time and being a student full time there's only so much I can do in terms of being able to pay for my car. I could use some words of encouragement. I know I have a bright future ahead of me . I am 18 years old studying criminal justice in college and getting my name known in police departments for a future career in law enforcement, but I just don't feel like I "can" make it there. I have lack of really good friends, never really had a girlfriend. Just wishing stuff would change and I do do my best at trying to make things work but this time I am falling short on seeing why I should continue or why I should move on. Thanks for reading this whole thing, hope someone has a decent comment to make me feel a little better and good heart that will help.

    The first thing you need to do is get out of law enforcement. It will make you feel like a good person at first, but soon you'll be corrupt and immoral just like most police. Keep taking electives til you figure out what you really want to do.

    Friends, lovers, family... they all let you down at some point or another. You have to live for you and be true to yourself. You can't count on anyone except yourself.

    I don't know what to tell you about your car. You can buy cars for less than 2 grand, but if you don't have the money your going to have to look to public transportation (I rode the bus in college).

    wait! the only reason for living is music. I literally don't kill myself everyday because there's so many songs I don't ever want to not hear again.

    The reasons I could list are limitless.Nobody can list even a slight percentage of those reasons in a limited character answer box.If you need someone to talk to,you can message me on Facebook,and I'll message you my number,as I'd prefer not to post it on here.I think you just need to have a long conversation with somebody and reflect why you feel this way,and what you can do about it.
