MOVED: Problems with High School Counselor

@galaxygirl , it sounds like you’re looking for a reason to be upset.

The great news is you were accepted into a GREAT university. The great news is you are a first-gen college student. The great news is you had a GC who was willing, able, and diligent about working with you on a regularly scheduled basis to get you accepted into a GREAT university. The great news is this GREAT university awarded you a fantastic financial aid package without which you would not be able to attend college at all maybe. And before all this happened, the great news is you proved yourself to be a great student through your high school years.

There are a lot of great things in the preceding paragraph.

Yet with all the great things that are happening to you, you choose to chase unhappiness. Instead of chasing reasons to be unhappy, embrace the many great reasons you have to be happy.

And for your own sake, if you find you can’t let go of feeling sad about how your GC helped you get into a great university, I hope you seek counseling. I want you to be able to fully enjoy the great things happening in your life right now. You deserve to feel good about what you have accomplished and feel good and excited about the things to come.
