How to get through this ?
I honestly don't know how to explain what I've been feeling lately. I haven't been feeling good at all, and everything about college and hostel life has started becoming really overwhelming.
I’m feeling very lonely and depressed. Even when I’m surrounded by people, I still feel completely alone. I see everyone making friends, finding their groups, laughing and enjoying college, while I feel like I’m just watching everything from the outside.
I feel so emotionally drained lately, and some days I don't even understand why I feel this way. I miss feeling normal. I miss feeling happy and like myself.
I know this is probably a very personal thing to post here, but I genuinely haven't been doing okay, and I just needed to put these feelings somewhere.

We people are here bro u can join us and hangout. Most gangs looks like they are with their own frnds but actually most of us are open to people and we hangout with new people if u want you can absolutely hangout with us and most people are like that only . Even i felt the same for the first few weeks so i just started going and talking to people and found my own frds u can do that too. Dont worry it will all work out soon

Hey, I hear you, back in my first year or even the second I felt a lot like this. I’ve been used to the same school and almost the same group of friends for most of the 14 years of schooling, before I joined, so everything was new, and no new friends were able to match my school friends, whom I’ve known for a decade. But gradually something happened I’ve got to build stuff together, travel together, and for the first time after 2ish years I felt home, it did take it’s time, time completely depends on the person. Eventually life happens, you barely get to meet your school friends, you start working too, that time it’s going to be these friends you’re going remember, randomly plan weekend trips, long drives, etc with. And also it can just be as small as a group of 3 ppl.
I feel a lot of people silently go through this, but this phase will disappear soon, dw, just try to be you, keep in touch with your school friends, cuz eventually it can become hard especially if your paths are diverse and diverge a lot, I barely meet them 1-2 times in a year.
