Mental health vs. college: How do you choose?
in Psychology & Therapy ·
Maybe you’re just terrified of growing up—using this as a way to stall your own progress... which doesn't actually stop the clock on aging or anything else in life.
You need to set small goals for yourself—not impossible hurdles, just manageable ideas—that you can actually turn into wins.
Make it something you enjoy, rather than a chore.
Why make it so hard on yourself?
Taking one hour for yourself isn't much... but if that hour gives you the mental clarity to get hours of studying done later, look at it that way.
Just take it step by step until you find your footing. Honestly, moving out from your parents probably hit you harder than you care to admit—maybe you're still emotionally stuck in that childhood bedroom.
That feeling of being suffocated is just the first sign of awareness... it means you know you have to change things.
And that realization alone is huge.
Now, move forward.
Good luck.
