  • Hi, I was in the same boat a few years ago in college, I loved the course but I was under a lot of stress from other things which made me hate going to college and got burnt out rather quickly. I was meant to start college this year but I dropped out before it started due to anxiety and feeling overwhelmed with the thought of needing to attend again. 

    If you really think you can't cope and get burnt out with stuff, you have had massive changes in your becoming homeless and getting a temporary flat and such. Have you thought about talking to the college and asking if you could stop attending this year and perhaps start again next year? So you can give yourself a break, try to cope & get in a better mindset?

    I'm sure no one will be disappointed because you have had to stop, you need to focus on yourself and getting better and trying to find some coping strategies. Don't worry what other people think, I used to worry about what people thought of me but I stopped and I have been on a better track. 

    All the best, feel free to pm me anytime if you need to talk.
