Ok so I’m just kinda using this a public diary since no one knows who I am and I’m anonymous, kinda like Reddit just weirder community. I’m just having some growing pains with adulthood and transitions from teen to adult. I just turned 18 when I started college and officially set out on my own and it’s been really difficult. I made a dumb mistake and got a reality check from my professor, (who’s the head dp of my major
)luckily it didn’t affect my grade but I just feel so embarrassed and immature. Luckily I’m barely maintaining A’s so I’m maintaining my scholarship but my god I’m overwhelmed. Gas is expensive and I’m working 30 hours a week while doing classes. I’m kinda on my own and I feel out of my depth. I don’t have my old support system of friends since I had mostly junior friends my senior year since my class was full of ghetto party animals and conservatives. I haven’t really been able to talk to friends, and the one good friend I have in college can’t ever hang out because he’s super busy since he’s a senior. I just feel super alone and I’m considering getting a therapist at the college or smth. Idk why I was even concerned about dating. Exams are so much more important. I don’t really need advice I kinda just needed to vent to the 3 random people who will read this. I just feel so immature, and I still feel like I’m acting like a teen sometimes. If anyone actually bothers to read this and your like an older wiser person. How can I just mature faster so I don’t make mistakes and deal with stress better? I can’t really ask my parents because….wellll……that’s another story. Lol, Mexican parents. Ifykyk
I stole this meme hehe

Aww thank you so much. I'm going to print this out or smth so I can read it everyday. This really helped
Hello there so im a 22 yo and i’m not much older or wiser than you what’s funny is that i still act like a teen!! I have no job yet since im studying in a medical school so i have no opportunity for any jobs related to my career rn and I still read manga & fantasise about the perfect love story since i have no experience in this too lol, but yk what ? it’s fine this way!! what you need to know is that you don’t need to mature faster or feel like you need to grow up or be a certain way in a certain age, i think growing up is more about the experience, you’re working and you’re studying well , i think that’s the best way to grow!! In all life aspects, even if you feel small or immature just be you! Without hurting anyone or yourself for sure, as long as you are trying and living, you will grow into the person you want to become, so enjoy your life to the fullest in every moment and every age, you will finish uni in a blink of an eye and you would wish to be 18 again TT so just be yourself, remind yourself that you will never be this age again, and time will pass anyway and you will get older without even realising.. so be happy with your current self and don’t push yourself too hard. if you need someone to talk to you can message me anytime (づ￣ ³￣)づ
