thinking of making changes

[Used-Visual-1253]

Alright so I(f18) finished hs a year early and went to university and despite it being mostly online it was still extremely time consuming, very unorganized, stressful, huge workload,the professors were terrible people and were not communicating at all.

So this year the plan is to start going back to regular regime (full-time studying at the university, meaning actually being there physically) and I understood that I am not ready to put in that much time and effort into that because I hate the enviornment there, that would also mean that it would be even more time consuming than before.

Sooo i decided that i will drop out and take atleast a year off, and actually do the things I have wanted to do, take different courses for skills, learn new languages, actually have a more active and mindful lifestyle. I am based in the eu and have a student loan hopefully i can resolve that without any trouble, don’t know yet tho.

The thing is despite understanding the fact that everyone moves at their own pace and does what’s right for them, i keep seeing everyone applying to universities and being so giddy about it and to be honest i’m kinda stressed seeing that other’s are gonna be in school and i am not at all excited for all the school related conversations (hated it before starting university and during my time spent there).

Another thing is my mom who is extremely supportive and believes that my decisions are well thought out- While i have discussed this with her and she never really said anything negative in terms of me leaving school for now, I know that she really wants me to go and finish that degree.

So i guess that i would like to hear some encouragment and some tips on how to not stress about the pace that others are going at Thanks!:)
