College Anxiety: Your Wake Up Call

College anxiety isn't just stress; it's your nervous system screaming that something needs to change.

Sophomore year, panic attacks in library bathrooms felt normal. My roommate found

me hyperventilating at 3am. That was my wake-up call. Five-minute body scans,

ten-minute assignment chunks, these actually worked. Red flags like skipping meals or avoiding friends.

Asking campus counseling for help, my bravest step. Your college friends are your lifeline.

Mental health resources exist because you deserve support. You're not broken for struggling,

you're human for reaching out. Build a foundation that holds you.
