Hi everyone, I'm Deon and I am currently studying Computer Engineering at UP and it's not going that well. I also feel a bit depressed.

Hi Deon, Don't be disheartened and don't worry about the degree course. you should know that there are a lot of options available.

I think the safest option would be to talk to your course tutor/director and tell him what you are going through and how you are feeling. if you have any difficulties in understanding certain topics then its always a good idea to either ask fellow students or approach your subject tutor or lecturer about it.

your second option is you can either take a year out and get yourself on the mend and come back to finish your degree, in your time out you can get a job where you are around people to try and make you feel relaxed and happy and seek therapy if needed.

third option is if computer engineering is not for you then there are other degree's you can search for and apply. not sure if you have paid for it or not but if you cannot get some money back then that's the way life is, money comes and goes but the positive is that you learnt some life experiences that you can pass on if you come across someone else in your situation.

if you want to talk further then you know we are all here.

Not what you're looking for?
