<p>Would anyone find it unusual that if nobody in my hall seems to be doing anything, I feel relaxed, but if my hall has a social gathering, I remain in my dorm being extremely productive with my homework and studying time?</p>
<p>Not everyone is a big socialiser or likes big groups of people. Do you have a particular friend that you could go along with? Or even know of someone else who’s a bit like you and would appreciate the moral support?</p>
<p>Do try to even just pop along to show your face, have a soda and say hi. If you get talking to someone, great. If not, you’ve still made an effort. </p>
<p>Also, if you haven’t already, join a student club- anything. D & D if that’s your thing. Don’t get into an anti-social rut. That way unhappiness and depression lies.</p>
<p>No that’s actually kinda like me. I’m naturally shy and for some reason, ever since living on campus I had become more and more introverted. The first few weeks I would try and socialize for a little bit but now I’m so much more content just being by myself in my room. I’ve been to a few dorm events but not a whole lot. I think as long as you’re happy, it’s fine. But if you really want to try and get out more, do try to find a friend to help you out a little.</p>
