Best start for a beginner?

Greetings /prog/!

I want something to do with my hikikomori life so I can say I have at least accomplished something before I inevitably commit suicide in my early thirties.

How do I learn programming? Is it actually worth watching/reading SICP first, or should I start with a higher-level language? Or perhaps even learn C?

Thank you for your time.

Honestly I think that everyone should start with C. It's the best language to learn real programming. Read K&R.
