adult life sucks

[justgoosethings]

Today was an okay day surprisingly but I hate being an adult. Trying to call my doctor for a referral for therapy or any other ideas they have and waited combined an hour on hold and multiple waiting for a call back and they still couldn’t get me on the phone with a nurse. Ugh why is mental health so fucking difficult. Anyways I need more broke college students friends, but I have such bad social anxiety now it’s hard to make friends and dorming is an option but financially its gonna be difficult for me down the road.

so far I’ve been to three colleges (currently taking a semester off while I switch to my 3rd). I started college in the heat of covid and a super super bad depression rut, which thankfully I got out of with the help of my mom and my boyfriend. But I just feel so lost and like I’m never going to progress and get my degree. It’s so frustrating because I feel like everytime I try to pass a class, or get into nursing programs it backfires and I’m either wasting my time, money, or both. I’m trying to be positive and tell myself that even though plans have changed a bit I can still graduate and get my degree, which hopefully happens before my boyfriend graduates in 4 years.

I'll tell you a secret, I hate adulting too, and I'm 74!

College and depression, never a good mix!

Cheers, Midori

Adult life is more complex. Just don’t forget to have fun and enjoy every good moment with those you love. Best wishes.
