    My 18 year old friend is really lost and doesn’t know what to do with his life. Can you recommend some books that might help?

    My friend, recently turned down for the military due to a birth defect. It’s a huge let down and now had has fallen into depression and has no positive outlook on life.

    I have never read any self help books but I’m sure there has to be some out there for lost adults seeking purpose.

    Can anyone give me some recommendations?

    Thanks all.

      If they are too expensive, try a library or a secondhand book store or even online secondhand book stores.
