Hi there,
I want to start off by saying thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this, you my not realise it but it does mean a lot to me.
I've recently started university and moved into the city to a student accomodation. This is the first time Ive ever lived away from home and I had big aspirations about what was going to happen when I arrived. I expected to be sat with my new room mates talking and maybe even having a drink with them. I was very wrong, when I arrived I learned that 3/5 of them don't speak my language at all and the other two don't really leave their rooms. I know this seems pathetic but I come back to my flat and I'm just sat on my own, no one to talk to and its become extremely lonely. Ive suffered with varying mental health problems before I came here but have been going through CBT and this seemed to be working. Being on my own seems to be bringing up a lot of emotions that I'm really struggling to deal with, add this to the pressure of trying to keep on top of my uni work load and it just seems to be overwhelming me.
Please if this forum has any advice for me I would be extremely grateful, i dont care how little anything will help me right now.
kind regards
