i feel for you, bro. i do. i've been there, too.  you're looking for a career track and wondering if there are an choices, let alone if you've made the right choice.  you need a mentor. you need someone who is not your friend but who knows the path you walk.  i suggest talking to men who are older than you. plain and simple. start getting some perspective. talk to your guy there at the college who is in charge of your degree... i can't remember what they're called right now. he's the one who looks over your courses and tells you what you need to do. talk to him about career options.  we don't know what your aptitudes are; the kind of stuff you're really good at, the kind of stuff you like to do with your time.  you're not going to get a comfy, high paying sedentary job with a history degree, my friend. i have a social science degree, which is adjacent, and i can tell you six years of teaching high school, i found myself wishing i was a night watchman at a museum. people are only going to pay you what they think you're worth, and if you want to sit down and do nothing, then you're going to have to get in a long line of sedentary people ahead of you.  suggestion: make history a passion or an interest, and learn something useful. like lockpicking. watch the lockpicking lawyer on yt and come to the understanding you can make $$$ just mastering lock systems and installing security and rekeying businesses. that's fairly sedentary but you're doing something of value to people.  fly planes. get a helicopter license -- there's a shortage of helicopter pilots right now. all of this stuff is sitting on your ass, but you're doing.
