Re: being overwhelmed/underwhelmed.

<p>It just gets more stressful once you move out. I’m stressed enough with my own problems so far that they overwhelm me–not to mention I have severe anxiety.</p>

<p>There are ways bring yourself out of the rut. Find something that you enjoy doing and make it a daily thing. For me it’s reading a good novel–I try to spend at least an hour or two reading and somehow it calms me for a while. If you’re stressed about school, try making a list of priorities. You’ll imagine that your assignments aren’t that huge once you’ve written them down and actualized the order of which you’ll get them done. I do this regularly with juggling my homework assignments, bills, and savings and surprisingly it helps some of the stress that I have because my tasks don’t seem as big on paper as they do in my head.</p>

<p>Parental pressure is hard to avoid. I wouldn’t know a good solution to help you with but when someone is stressing me out, I tend to ignore them and focus on other aspects of my life. This may seem like running away but it’s better then being caught in the middle.</p>
