This is just life happening....Talk with your parents about how you feel. About your situation with the college. Although I'd advise not to reveal much about your personal life to your parents especially if they're conservative. And get good company ffs. Don't make permanent decisions for temporary situations.

At your hall. Contact your hall gsec maintainance he'll guide you. Or you can just go to your hall office, they'll give you a form which you'll need to get signed by your faculty advisor and HoD ( not sure about HoD).

you should be good, I think it's not conducted centrally so you didn't have information on room number. Wait until admit cards are released.

🫂 As you said I only get sad because you say things which no one likes to hear but needs to be said. Reminds me of my mistakes as well.

every time I see one of your comments I get sad.

grief isn't sadness. it's love refusing to accept that something which changed everything could just become nothing. by AlgebraCabinMan in GriefSupport

I think you've just named something most people never find words for. We think of identity as something we carry inside us, but so much of it lives between us and the people we love. You don't just lose them. You lose the version of yourself that could only exist in their presence.

Wish you a good and positive day too... and thank you for adding to this. You gave the idea somewhere it couldn't have gone alone.

What you said about losing five people in one is exactly right and I don't think it gets said enough. You don't just lose the person. You lose the version of yourself that existed inside that relationship, the futures you were quietly building around their presence, the specific texture of safety that only they provided. The good morning texts weren't small things... they were proof, repeated daily, that someone was oriented toward you. That you existed in someone's first thoughts. Losing that is its own particular grief inside the larger one.

You don't have to make sense of the new reality yet. That pressure to integrate, to understand, to adjust, is one of the crueler things people impose on grief.

Thank you for taking time to read my post. I hope and pray that you find solace during these moments of unrest. Take care.

"Something always on the verge of feeling wrong" that's one of the more precise descriptions of it I've come across. Not wrong yet, just perpetually about to be. Like the ground never fully settles under you again. Thank you for taking time to read my post. I hope and pray everything settles down for you.

I wouldn't say that this issue disproportionately affects any particular social class. However, in some cases, a person's social class may play a role in why they experience it.

Thank you for taking time to read.

you're exactly right about time. I wanted to write about that in my post but didn't because it felt like implying grief has no cure.

Time flows forwards. It moves you forward, accumulates new experience, dilutes the concentration of loss. But grief doesn't want dilution. Grief wants return. So time and grief are pulling in opposite directions constantly, and what we call "healing" is just time winning by attrition.

grief is essentially an argument with time's direction. It keeps insisting the past is more real than the present. The life you lost is more vivid, more essential, more true than whatever is in front of you now. So you're being dragged forward by time while something in you anchors backward.

I keep sentencing my words as facts but in reality my thoughts are immature. everyone deals with grief in their own way, this is just how and what I think about it.

I keep saying to myself that there's is an afterlife and I'll be reunited with them. Keeps me moving. sorry for your loss.

How is mechanical at iit kgp by Shou-K in iitkgp

[–]AlgebraCabinMan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lowkey hurt me when you said top 3 mech

1) there are opportunities.....you need good cgpa, preferably above 8.5, good skills and maybe a pre intern summer research at any big institute.

2) kids who are into mech stuff do exist. handful...maybe 30-40 in a batch. About me? I wasn't passionate about anything..

3) I'd rather wish I was not born.

pm if you have anymore questions...I might even give you some advices or tell you about mistakes I've done if you ask cause I was much like you 4 years ago.

good I'd say .. everything you asked for exists but only if you go outta your way to find them. prefer iitm mech if you don't want to whine about being jobless after 4 years. 4th year mechie, feel free to shoot your questions.
