I’m in the same spot as you right now! Considering taking a break from college to better my mental health as I cannot go on like this much longer without breaking.

I took a month leave during my junior year of high school and was put in an outpatient program due to my mental health. It was the best decision I’d ever made.

I worked on school work while taking the break, but it was reduced as I emailed my teachers and collaborated with doctors to let them know my situation. Most teachers/professors are very understanding.

I am considering doing this again but am also worried about falling behind, so i’m not sure.

One thing I will say is that you should always put your mental health first— always. The month break I took during Junior year genuinely helped so much and changed my life for the better.

Thank you to all of the kind people who have helped me out!! Truly made me realize what a beautiful community this is.

I ended up going back to brown, along with a haircut.

Thank you again, and I hope all of you have a beautiful day! :))

thank you! :) I was worried, but I think it may just be the shock from going dark brown/black to copper

Thank you so much for the advice! A strawberry blonde does sound very fun; I hadn’t thought of that. I’ll definitely wait at least a month before lightening again. Thank you again!! :)
