I don't know what to do with my life anymore.

Hello!

I am a 25 years old female from Pakistan with a bachelors degree in Psychology. I've always had problems from unresolved issues from childhood mainly bad communication skills which lead to me being isolated from my loved ones. I graduated three years ago, moved to another city and my family have been going through a lot of problems for years. Even though we live together (except for my father who left) I don't feel close to anyone at all and have been suffering in silence. There aren't many scholarships in our country so I gave up on higher studies because I didn't want to be burden on my brothers. I don't know how I wasted these three years but my opinion of myself is getting lower and lower each day. I used to do a lot chores around the house to not feel like a burden on everyone but recently my family hired a maid for cleaning even when I said that I don't mind doing any chore.I feel pathetic that I don't have a job (can't become a therapist unless I get therapy myself) and that I don't do much anymore (I used to paint, sketch, write poetry and other diy art projects). I desperately need therapy but even after talking about it at home, no one showed any interest. I went to a therapist but her monthly package was very expensive so I'll feel really guilty asking my family for that much money. I want to find some government facility that can offer therapy for lower prices so I don't feel as guilty for asking. Can anyone offer any guidance?
