[quote=Anonymous]I struggled with health problems my first year - back when things like this weren’t admitted or discussed as openly. I was at a dream school for many, and it wasn’t “supposed” to be this way. Fortunately my college environment was very nurturing and by my third year, several caring individuals on campus helped me pull it together. I would encourage your kids to try to find a support system, wherever they are. It could be a faculty member, therapist, coach, or several people. There is a lot of pressure to project oneself as having the “perfect” college experience and it’s even worse now with social media. Lots of people struggle in different ways and at different times during college-and it’s not always visible. [/quote]
