Simple, are you saying you want to play in the NFL, or just have a job associated with it. I'm trying to play professional baseball. MLB eventually.
I want to play in the National Football League.

That's what I figured and you automatically gained my respect, but I still wanted to make sure. I always grew up with the dream to play in the MLB. Those are those "silly" dreams that all kids have growing up. Then as you get older, people ask you to be more realistic with yourself and pick a "normal" career. I did all that, and I'm right back to where I was as a child. My deepest and biggest passion has and will always be baseball. I knew it when I was a kid. I don't need to fool myself any longer.
The day I put my passion and biggest dream behind what society asks of me, is the day I don't make it.
Kudos, man. Keep working hard and screw whoever sways you away from YOU want to do.

Your first job should be part time and during school hours.
Well I already have my "first" job, I work as a cashier. I mean my first "real" job. 40 hours a week with a constant pay check every week.

I would love to, but my multiple anxiety disorders would never allow it.

I really appreciate that, man. You do what you do too and don't let anyone stop you, bro.

You can do it bro. I'm taking almost entirely online courses. It's a lot less stressful to be honest.

Any chance you could throw a few links my way?

Not quite sure what you mean. Community colleges offer online courses. Granted, some classes require LAB hours, so you will have to attend class once a week for those. But it's still not nearly as stressful as it seems. I still barely talk to anyone in my classes, and no one talks in return. Not like HS in class. I think you'd be fine.
If you're going for a degree, it's usually the English, Math, and Science classes that require your physical presence for the lab hours. Not sure if every college requires that though. For the rest, you can do all the work in your bed. I wake up at whatever time I want besides two days out of the week where I have a class, because I chose to take the hybrid version of the classes (half online)
