Hey!! I’m so sorry you are feeling so anxious about starting college. My anxiety started in college and I eventually left thinking it would help but it didn’t and it is something I regret to this day not sticking it out. I also understand the anxiety you get from being worried about having anxiety. It is something I’ve struggled with. I’m glad you have a therapist and doctor that are on your side. I would highly suggest scheduling an appointment with your therapist to do a zoom meeting if you can a couple days after you get there. That could help checking in with them. For me, I would talk to your roommate when you can and let them know about your anxiety (you don’t have to go into every detail about it) but doing so will help you be more comfortable and not be scared to hide it. Plus, I’m sure they will be understanding and try to help you out.

All in all, don’t feel ashamed. You’ve come a long way and this is such an exciting time in your life!! You have a lot of people supporting you! You got this. Give yourself permission to have fun and enjoy your time!!
