Pardon me but I cannot help but be annoyed by your comment, because in all realness, you do not have it that bad AT ALL man.
A lot of us grew up with a single parent around rats and roaches with WIC and food stamps when they came out of a fuckn' booklet, and are content to have what we have. When my friends were becoming doctors, I was receiving my DACA. Ok, Trump is the GOP nominee and he MIGHT win, and if he does he MIGHT remove DACA. I made it to 27 without a work permit or a drivers license like plenty of other dreamers who have stories far worse than yours.
I can't remember who the harsh dude calling you weak willed was, but he does have a point. Other depression boards will sympathize with you but that's because they must not have heard my story or the stories of hundreds of other dreamers who came to the US at a younger age than you did and are now over 30.
Basically, to sum it up, you're not alone man, but you do need to toughen up somehow. Many of us were in a deeper shit hole than you're in but climbed out of it instead of wallowing in it. And don't kill yourself, that's ridiculous.
