Hi there,

First—you are not alone, I promise! Many students are homesick and out of sorts at the beginning of college.

Please please see a counselor with health services! Someone to talk to possibly weekly, and possibly starting a small dose of an anti-anxiety drug, will help.

it is really hard when roommates aren’t respectful with noise/guests (so many students experience this! You are not alone! My child’s roomate had his gf sleeping over up to 5 times per week—it was too much. Talking to your roomate, and your RA if you need more help, will help set boundaries with the goal of a better living environment for you.

Starting college is really hard for SO many students—many students are homesick and lonely, even those who had great high school experiences! It’s going to get better—you are incredibly brave reaching out for help. Sending you so much love from a mom on the East coast!
