Struggling to Succeed in College with Chronic Health & Mental Conditions

I’m also 19 and in college and I’m struggling with the same things. Having understanding professors really makes a big difference. If you’re comfortable let them know what’s going on and they’ll usually respond pretty well. Also learning to give yourself grace when you don’t live up to your expectations is really important. I’m still really working on this myself as I tend to be pretty hard on myself. Also knowing it’s okay to go at a different pace or a more non traditional route because you’re going through a lot more than the average college student.

I/we have made choices in the past that are affecting our present. (good and not) If I/we find that I/we are unsatisfied the current situation/direction of life… then need to change the things we can , the small choices made today do affect future . pray everyday to change the things U can. And for the wisdom to know the difference. Your future is your choice Like it or don’t It’s still your choice. F O C U S don’t look around. It’s slowing you down. Set sight on your goal and For gods sake cheer the fuck up. love you more than anything in this world Please. Choose happiness They cannot take your joy! 👍

we are also 19 and struggling with this exact thing so if you need a buddy let us know <3

I also struggled through Community college in a similar way. The best thing I found was having a small group of friends who could relate to my mental health problems and kind professors who understood that I was trying my best. It's helpful to message them and let them know what you're dealing with. I also slowly learned to not be so hard on myself over my shortcomings. They happen, but so do moments where you excel. Celebrate the little wins ❤️
