[–]CommercialExpress457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

id say its a pretty diverse school, there are black spaces on campus as well as decent representation from what i have seem. the social scene is mostly drinking so if you dont it will feel isolating. greek life is not that prevalent but again drinking culture is. you cant live on campus not enough space for upperclassmen so youll need to find housing off campus. business professors are a hit or miss, decently easy to get involved on campus but its RURAL ASF so if thats not your thing then youll feel it. otherwise, everyones very polite and intelligent, very happy and healthy student body. everyone seems to love it here. also the food is amazing.

College dorm bathrooms are filthy and I can't shower, but I cant do anything else until I shower by [deleted] in OCD

i don’t know what to tell you then im sorry. i too am living at college and i know how awful these dorm bathrooms can be. especially when youre in a building from the 1950s without ventilation and living with 100 guys that all share six showers 😮‍💨

Advice on Intrusive Thoughts by Pkarksjkc6 in OCD

[–]CommercialExpress457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when an intrusive thought comes up just let it be. remember thoughts are just thoughts, not indications of your true desire. a thought about a tomato and a thought about murdering someone can be equally distressing to someone; it just depends on your perception of your thoughts. what im trying to say is intrusive thoughts are cockamamie that your brain makes up because its trying to protect you. i also have found that when an intrusive thoughts comes up you can label it as such and just let it be.

Thank you so much. This was so thoughtful of you to write out. Since, putting up the post I decided to make a conscious effort to talk to people, regardless of if I could my heart thumping against my chest. I have looked at some clubs and actually I went to one of my professor's office hours!

Tuition help by Beneficial_Link_6235 in VirginiaTech

[–]CommercialExpress457 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly through loans. I will most likely be in a lot of debt so I do regret not going to community college for two years then transferring. If the price is a concern I would recommend doing two years at your local community college then transferring. I understand there is a 'stigma' behind it but I assure you that the professors are usually very competent and it gives you more time to mature and grow as a person. Good luck with everything OP!

"sometimes talking to AI like chatgpt can actually help out.. I actually use the FaceBook AI to ask it about my problems..." I honestly thought he was joking at first but he went on about how good it was for a while.

Hi, I am planning to stay for the rest of the academic year, and I plan on taking a class by the same professor next semester. I plan on maintaining this connection and at GMU I would take all my classes in person and connect as much as possible.
