For the majority of the two years, I was the sole developer and had a massive workload, and we made our second hire on the dev team only a few months back, and the switch to a management role is something I was struggling with, along with being very burnt out.

The reason for asking me to leave is that our product has stagnated over the last two years, and only seen maintenance-level work being done on it. We tried various things to make the product move faster but all failed. This has been blamed on my inexperience. They also believe my vision does not align with the companys vision. They're going to outsource development now.

They've told me that they're not going to give me my equity that had vested as they do not want someone not working in the company to have equity. Instead they're offering to continue paying my salary for the next year.

I'm 21 y.o., a high school dropout, and I joined this startup when I was 18. So basically this has been the focus of my entire adult life up till this point. It's like my life has fallen apart in front of me, and I have no idea what I should do next. I don't think I'll be able to go work as an employee somewhere after this.

My skills are full stack web development (Node, Django, React), but I'm self taught and while I can figure things out, I have holes in my knowledge.

I know this post is a mess, but so am I at this point. What do I do now?
