How has your life changed since starting college?

I felt frustrated, occasionally venting at my family and used to have panic attacks.

Thanks for reading my answer.

There are many students who can’t go home frequently because of issues like long distance, travelling issues etc..I can feel their pain.

All I meant to say is that if you are fully skilled, know everything, and still have no confidence, You will be considered nothing, but if you have confidence, people will see it as a plus, and this will provide a better opportunity for the future.

I’ve become more responsible.

From being at home 24*7 to going home for a few days in 2–3 months.

What are your darkest taboo confessions?

The fact that groups break up after the first year is correct.

In PG, I met 5 other girls from my classroom, and from the start, I kept my expectations low and was sure that I did not fit in with them, so I kept my distance, and my only connection in college was my roommate at that time.She advised me multiple times to hang out with that group. I made it clear to her that it was not right for my well-being to spend time with people with whom I feel uncomfortable.

I witnessed people with no understanding becoming successful simply because they were confident enough to stand on stage and perform.They arrived, performed, and it was finished. Their performance was not that good; it could have been better, yet people applauded as if it were the best.

When did you realize that your childhood was not normal?

In college, I met many people who were faking behaviors in order to look cool, and they still do. This 'pick me' behavior irritates me the most.

It will be a year since I started college, so I thought I should share my experience with you.

In 12th, I struggled to focus on my studies.I didn’t want to take the science stream but had to and wasn’t doing well. As if it wasn’t enough my father transferred to some other city and I was not happy with it.
