25 but my situation is similar to yours
>haven't had a job in 5 years (though I had 2 months work experience about 2 years ago i guess)
>no decent education (went back to college at 23 to do computer science but it'll be another year or two before I can do anything with it and i'll still have no experience)
>no friends and socially retarded
>had job applications where they'll ask me to list references that aren't employers/family and I can't give them any
May as well end it all now

I was the same. I just started listing bullshit in my work history. Looked up bankrupt companies and put their phone numbers as references. Finally landed a job last month.
Even if 90% of places do due diligence, you only need to find one of the 10% that doesn't. Also lying on your resume isn't illegal here and you can't be sued for it.
Good luck, robot.

The only real chance you got now is to go to university and study something that doesn't discriminate on age like nursing or teaching.
