The independance, less hours, being treated more like an adult and so on. But for some reason, I still get first day nerves where I can't stop peeing and feeling unwell every other night. For example tomorrow, I don't have to be in till 10 and get to leave at 12:30 plus I've got no deadlines to meet and nothing to worry me. Yet I cannot stop thinking about it and I cannot relax. What can I do to deal with it and what's causing it? I never got it about school :(.[/quote] FAQ Keyword Search: Post Options Favorites Manager Notify me of new replies to this topic by email Notify me of new replies to this topic by private message Original Post Anonymous Posted at 4:57 pm on Sep. 17, 2008 I started college two weeks ago now and have been enjoying it so far.

Because homesickness could be the cause of feeling 'unwell' every other night.   But to get it off your mind, maybe get a job, join some clubs/activities, or athletics, to where you think less about it because you're keeping busy all the time. I didn't move away no. My parents live not too far away. bluerosedangel Posted at 5:00 pm on Sep. 17, 2008 Could it possibly be because it's a new environment? Did you move away for college?
