Ask HN: Looking for help/advice/mentoring resources online, free or paid

My life is a mess. I am lost in regard to what I want to do, what are my abilities, and at the same time, I think I am not good enough to compete with other people in our globalized ultra-competitive job market. On top of that, I feel like my life is going nowhere. To add insult to injury, I feel very lonely even though I have 4-5 friends with whom I talk once in a while. I am already seeing a psychologist and a psychiatrist, having said so, they have not been able to address and help me out in questions like "I feel like even though I like a variety of fields, I at the same time have failed in every attempt I've had in studying "insert x field" since I was 16 years old". BTW, I am a 20 year old male from Spain who dropped out of uni during my freshman year in CS after failing every single subject I had, and 3 months ago I dropped out of vocational school where I was studying Robotics & Automation. I was only to graduate from High School even though I failed 2 core subjects (biology and chemistry) because of the "mercy" of the respective teachers that taught me those subjects. I objectively think I am a failure because of the reasons described beforehand & other causes. Therefore, what are some help/advice/mentoring resources online both free and/or paid that could help me out in my current situation? Thanks in advance.
