However, the truth is, none of that matters because you are who YOU are.
It sucks when people are showing off their 4.0 GPA’s or bragging about how well they did on that last test. There are people around you who have worked just as hard to get where they are today and deserve to be there. You’re probably going to feel immense pressure to do well in all of your classes, especially if you excelled in all of your classes in high school.
Look, I may not know much about each and every student’s college experience, but from what I know, hard work does eventually pay off. Getting this feeling is absolutely frustrating and disappointing and can certainly upset many people, including myself. You then work and study as hard as you can. As you’re going through the semester, you notice your grades aren’t as good as you want them. You stay up late to work on assignments and study for exams. Imagine this: You’re in a class working hard. I think one of the worst things to feel in college is disappointment. At first, things seem like they’re going fine (and they are), but once we get deeper into the semester we’re not feeling as confident as we did going into the semester. We worked unbelievably hard in high school to get where we are today, and so as soon as we enter college we expect ourselves to start off strong. Feeling stressed out is one thing, but feeling burnout is a whole other issue.Įntering college, I think a lot of us unintentionally place a large amount of pressure on ourselves. You’re exhausted and unmotivated you just want the semester to end now. Sure, everything seems fine but you’re just not happy with where you’re at right now. However, there comes a time when things just don’t feel good and you’re not feeling the same way towards things as you used to. Whether you’re trying to fit in or trying to survive classes, I think we can all agree that college life isn’t perfect. Eventually, with everything piling on top of us one after the other, we snap.Ĭollege can be a tough time for a lot of students. We’re frustrated, confused, lonely, and don’t really know what to do. At some point, we begin feeling so helpless and depressed that we retreat into our shell, away from our peers and the people who care about us the most.
While we try our best to finish everything as quickly (and as accurately) as possible, we sometimes digress into a state of despair and self-doubt when our hard work isn’t giving us the results we want. All of us have those moments where we’re completely overwhelmed by the amount of work college demands.
