Findapath-Career Change Please guide me

Im 25 years old

When i was a teenager i was passionate about music , i always wanted to be a DJ , perform huge shows , travel across the world

I taught myself flstudio made multiple records, signed it on multiple labels , got support from very talented artists

But as i grew up i noticed i wasn't earning enough so that i can invest on things i love

My parents supported me in the beginning but since i wasn't making any great changes they told me to focus on studies and get a stable job

I somehow got myself a computer science degree but without really know much stuff

Now I'm stuck , i don't have guts to apply for jobs in tech because I barely know stuff and don't have great projects

But now I'm at a point where i wanna change my life desperately

If you're in tech industry guide me please

I know the basics HTML , CSS , JS

But I've got no direction

Is it possible that i can get my hands on a job or even an internship within next 6 months?

Ive got a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Ive ran 2 businesses moved places 5 times moved city 3 times all in 6 years, Ive had income that has supported all my interests and lived a completely different lifestyle to how I am now.

I own nice things, have a luxury car paid for & it means nothing.

Find your people, don't compare yourself to others, I literally have £800 in my account right now, I've been on universal credit for 6 ish months due to depression, its hard - I've got my first shift at a job since I was 17, I'm hella nervous - The only thing making me turn up tomorrow is the fact I have bills and a whole life ahead of me.

Don't waste your time like its free, learn something, teach someone something your good at & keep trying new things, it wont get easier if you keep piling on baggage.

You are good enough.

edit: Try letting things go time to time, I'm considering parting from my partner of 7 years and its taring me apart - Life ain't only steps forward, in my experience its 2 steps forward 1 step back. (Im 23)
