Hey just wanted to chime in here - and let you know that we see you and hear you. I HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend seeing the mental health counselors at your school or locally if you haven’t already. It’s good and NOT any kind of defeat to seek out help at your school. Second, a new roommate (or no roommate) will really help - your ‘safe space’ - your room – is smelly and awful and you aren’t getting any decompression time. You need to be able to get sleep and rest to function well - that goes for EVERYONE. Third - I don’t think commuting for a semester or two is a bad idea – basically keep one parameter ‘stable’ (home) and deal with other factors one step at a time -like classes and then when those are stable –add in clubs.

Also - please give yourself some grace and treat yourself like you would a good friend. You are doing the best you can right now - many people take a long time to settle into a friend group.
