Ok, so I am an Australian 18yr old male. Finished school last year and haven’t even been able to just get a normal job yet as I am having no luck. I have been asking myself if I could do anything what would it be, and I said acting.
Growing up I had a speech impediment and also had an accident involving my mouth when 3 years old which lead to surgery. Had braces at 14. Growing up I struggled talking to people and didn't have anyone to help me. I didn’t have any friends or family. I have managed to get to the point where most people can't pick it up so I must be doing ok. I improve everyday as talking to people in everyday life helps.
So at the moment I have no life and don't know what to do, I would like to pursue an acting career or even work for a little bit first then try acting.
I want to be an actor; I feel I don’t have what it takes.
Other:
Looks: athletic build, pale, hair is fine at moment hope I don’t go bald, alright teeth, short/average height.

I am not sure if I should be focusing on this or get a job in the mean time as i got nothing.
Seems hard to become an actor in Australia, I searched for local theatre companies and didn't find anything.
I wish I could become an actor right now, I know it is hard to get into and I am fully lost
So far I am thinkign get a job first, do a 6 week acting course, then try to find an acting agency (i had a quick look and didn't find much on angencies in Australia). Then I would go from there. Or I could fly to LA/Hollywood :P

Getting some acting experience would be a good start. Got any local opportunities in theater? You gotta start at the bottom, work hard, and see if you can go somewhere. Classes would be a good investment.

Take acting classes. Go to the bottom of this page and click on the Flag for Australia.
Perhaps an Australian actor can guidance you on how to get into acting.
Good Luck.
