II'm in my late twenties. I'm a single female with no children. I feel like I can't get my life together. I graduated from college and worked but I quit my job to take pre-requistes for Med School. Now that I did that I feel like a bum. I don't have any money and am 28 and still live at home. I took out sooo much school loans to live off of. I'm trying to look for a job and nobody's calling me for interviews. My phone just got cut off. I have all these bills. I wanna move to another city because I feel that maybe I will be able to do better. I live in NYC and I can't even find someone worth dating. I know I shouldn't be concerned with a man but it would be nice to at least have some sort of companionship. Should I feel a certain way? Can anyone give me some advice. I feel like crying.

I don't know how to make you feel better, but remember this, too, shall pass.

Look for grants, or scholarships, or state aid to get into med school. If you passed the pre-requisites for med school, you should be able to get some help somewhere. If you have friends or relatives in NYC or other cities, maybe you can move in with them. Have you tried temp agencies for employment? Also go to a Credit Counselor for some guidance on paying your debts. They will negotiate with your creditors to reduce the size of the debts, or the interest payments.
I seem to recall that the Federal government has some programs(?) for people who are ready for med school. But they must commit to serve for "X" years after they become a doctor, in return for the government paying for their education. It might have been the military, or something similar to the Peace Corps. You should ask your congressperson, or Sen. Clinton. Maybe they can help. In any case, you need to go shopping for a good deal.
You sound like you have a lot to offer. Don't give up. Good Luck.
I wish you well.
