College life is hard, how to stay positive?
Being a third year student, I am having trouble staying positive with everything relating to college life, like money, failure anxiety, negative thoughts et cetera. Anyone with me or having tips to battle all this?
@Ladyblackbird04 It can be extremely difficult coping with college life whilst adapting to the many day to day responsibilities you find yourself juggling eg finances, studying, jobs, planning time, in addition to coping with your worries about your studies, about friendships, perhaps battling with homesickness, money worries etc I have found a few links posted below which you may find useful as they contain tips on how to survive and deal with the stress of studying, college life and day to day responsibilities. I wish you well with your studies and please remember theres always people here who would be only to happy to chat with you if you need.

Hey Ladyblackbird04, I'm sorry to hear that you are dealing with so much stress from college life. I am in graduate school now but I remember all the emotional stress I was having in college well so I understand. I don't really have any magical tips or answers but feel free to message me if you just want a listening ear.
