Stressors of College Life
College life is not how we picture it. It offers us a certain phase of
independence but comes with its own set of stressors. College life
demands us to come out of our comfort zone, to find new friends which
can be challenging. Seeing your old friends change is hard to deal with.
Also, one’s life need not always be planned. Thinking of what you
actually want to pursue is important. The need to devote time to
oneself is also necessary. It’s specially difficult if you’re living far from
home. So staying motivated and being proud of your choice is the
solution.
When people get into college, they look forward to having new
experiences, experiences that allow them to bring changes to their
identity and their way of life. Mere acknowledgement of the fact that
the crisis is an opportunity to change something about our life and that
its period of discomfort is only transitory can bring us inner peace.
Hence, each stressor presents you with a choice: evolve or remain. If you choose to evolve, you will connect with the strength within you, you will explore what lies outside the comfort zone, you will awaken to love, you will become what you will be.
