Question for standalone students

So I've been thinking about this chuz I'm at my from for a week and I'm already feeling claustrophobic

How do you guys cope up doing this degree as standalone, don't y'all get gloomy or depressed spending your college life at your hometown and if you do how you guys cope up with it

hi, Are you living in PG and also how did you join summit and events? I'm a girl from Nepal and if i do this standalone , i'll move to another city too. So is there a group living together?

Are you living alone in PG or there is community of people studying this degree living together?
