Question: I am in my last year in college and I can feel myself mentally snaping, breaking, etc. I can't quit now or .?
even take a break it will take me 1 year to get back in. The social work program has lied to me, conned me, and in martial arts the instructor started sexually harassing me I couldn't press charges for the lack of proof. He cheated me out of a belt and I planned to go professional before that happened. My classmates in the social work program act like I am stupid. I am the highest G.P.A. in my class and they all try to con me. I've been trying to get placed in an internship, and my mind has been clicking. Im a basket case,and I can't quit college Im to close to getting my BSW I can't join the military because of the contract for 8 yrs. in the military,and I've even contemplated suicide every night and I cry myself to sleep. My grades are good, but I don't know what to do.? Please help me with some advice.? Please non criticizing advice.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
First off, stop blaming yourself. I went through a similar situation in middle school, so I know you feel like you must've done something, but you can't place your finger on it. It's not your fault. Sometimes in life we are put through trials so that we grow. Some people go through storms for years, most of their lives even, but it's worth it in the end, because you learn. And you continue to learn and grow, and your life is shaped by and through it.
Have you looked at other colleges that offer good social work programs.? You could transfer. That would be my best advice without knowing you.
Another thing is suicide is not the answer. You have too much purpose in life, whether you know it or not, to take your own life. Hurt is okay, it's not fun, but do not deprive our world of you. Why.? You may be asking yourself this question. But you are a treasure. There is only one of you. There is no one else like you in the world. You, as an individual have your own opinions, morals, and beliefs, and you deserve every opportunity to share them with people. By sharing everything you've shared in this post, you have already shown that you are genuine and open. There's so much more out there in life for you. College is only a small portion of what there is to come. I am sorry that your college experience has been bad. I will be praying for you and your situation. You didn't and do not deserve what has happened to you.
all in all:
1. Try and transfer, you can easily find a plan to pay off any college debt.
2. Find a new martial arts teacher. If someone touches you inappropriately, leave, get out, you do not need to be stuck in a situation like that.
3. Start writing down a list of your strengths and thing you like about yourself. If you have to write something negative about yourself down, write 3 good things about yourself that outweigh that characteristic you don't like.
4. Keep a journal. Writing down your thoughts helps you to get everything out that you are feeling. Whatever you want to write about.
5. Pray. Prayer is such a powerful weapon.
6. Find someone older than who can be a mentor. I have made it through so many hard times just by having an older figure there to guide my steps.
I hope things work out. If anyone is criticizing you for what you've gone through, ignore it... there's nothing that you should be criticized for. You haven't done anything wrong. If no one has told you lately, then I will say it, I am proud of you for you standing your ground and being brave and bold to stick this out as long as you have. You are a good person who has just been thrown into a lousy situation. Continue to be bold. Your life has a purpose, and all that you've gone through will help to grow you, and give you experience to help you relate to others in the future. Hang on, keep pressing on, your life is worth more than you could imagine.Health Question & Answer

I would seriously take a break, even if it takes you a year to get back in... if you keep going and then snap it could damage your great GPA and your reputation. I took an unexpected break in college and was much better off for it... make an appointment with a counselor (not a school counselor) so you can talk it out too.Health Question & Answer
I agree with maureen. I would recommend also going to speak with your University Counseling Center. They have to keep your records confidential (by law) and you will be able to get some objective help there. If you find them unsatisfactory, in terms of keeping your information confidential, you can go to the administration. But do what you have to do to maintain your own sanity. That is crucially important to your success.Health Question & Answer
Stop right where you are. Take a deep breath. Let it out. Now, get away from your computer and your studies, and go outside for a walk. When you get back, take a shower. After your shower, lay down on your bed and fall asleep. You'll wake to another day tomorrow, and hopefully after that good night sleep, you can make a clearer decision on whether you want to stay in college or not.Health Question & Answer
Go get help with a psychologist or a psychiatrist they are not for crazy they can help you with what you are dealing with. Really you'd thank me for the advice. Go ahead don't wait until you snap you have alot going for you.Don't think about it any longer.Take action now.
