I used to think that college was all going to change my life. I would finally be happy and find a bunch of friends and I would be able to balance work, play, and my mental health.
I was wrong.
College is hard. I have almost no friends. I have nightmares almost every night. I am almost always doing some kind of work to the point where I don't even know what fun is supposed to be anymore. College didn't bring me happiness, just knowledge. They say it is supposed to be the best years of your life, but so far I do not see how. My responsibility for myself just causes me to fall in a depressive state that won't seem to go away. I only get happy for a day at a time. I disassociate so much. I'm barely passing one of my classes. I am not who I used to be. It won't be the same for everyone, but being on your own, away from family, friends, and loved ones is hard, especially when you're suffering because of your mind's imperfections.
I love and believe in you. Stay strong xo
