In post #17 you said things that sound like the direction you need to go. You have a physical condition that seems like it could be leading/adding to some of the frustration that seems to cause the anger, but it seems like there may be more to it than that; your college/university should have a way to work therapy or counseling into your schedule of classes. You probably are familiar with this but just in case here's the link. About Dyspraxia
I don't know the difference between college and university in the UK, here in the US the universities and colleges are mostly all in the middle of spring semester and if someone's going to start school, it's probably going to be fall semester. Nobody can wave a magic wand and make fall semester start now. Or make anything happen immediately; counseling might help you take it a step at a time. (I'm curious what you're going to school for, what you're majoring in; I just wonder where you see yourself in the next few years or on down the road.)
Comparing yourself to your step siblings isn't helping any. Neither is your work attitude. If you don't get the anger under control I don't see how you'd have a girlfriend (because who would want to put up with the anger?), or how you'd get and keep a good job, etc. What's wrong with working at MickeyD's for a summer job? (Look up celebrities that once worked at McDonald's!) Or if that's not for you, check with your school's dept. that handles student employment.
I've bought plenty of used camera equipment, I don't see what's wrong with that. But if you want a new camera, get the anger manageable so you can get and keep a summer job and work toward buying yourself a new camera. If you buy it yourself maybe you won't bash the hell out of it. Find better ways to work out the frustration and anger instead of taking it out on your photography equipment. I hope you can work through all this and get your life on a more positive track.
