My college years were some of the worst times in my life 2

I was suicidally depressed and absurdly paranoid of everything and every aspect of my life sucked. Ever since I dropped out at the end of my second year my life has been on a steady uphill swing and i've never been more happy with who I am as a person and have met all sorts of great supporting people from all over the place and have made tons of fun memories and plenty more to be made.
A lot of people say that their college years are the best of their life. Does this ring true with you?

This thread was made recently
It was awesome for me. Only because i was a big fish in a small pond. City boy moves to small town college. Bunch of preppy awkward boys n gals I wasnt, so i instantly made friends with the other normal peeps. So many great parties, nights, trips, lays, lan parties, concerts

That's pretty typical. My first semester at college had it's ups and downs but it got uniformly better with each semester. I thoroughly enjoyed college because it was extremely easy to socialize with my friends and I was in a big city, had lots of crazy experiences, I learned a tremendous amount when I put effort into it, and I grew up a lot from living on my own and dealing with a lot more responsibilities and being exposed to so many different kinds of people I wouldn't otherwise.

I was pretty depressed my first year of college. Didn't make friends the first year at all, was in my own depressive bubble for the most part. Lost all desire to go to classes and did pretty horrible in classes too. Was completely sober that first year to boot.
Second year was off to a much better start, met a lot of life long friends, started getting out and doing stuff. Unfortunately, I still had no desire to study anything. In hindsight I'm glad, as I was focused on political science and psychology courses at the time. I'm not even remotely interested in that stuff anymore.
I was 18 at the time, 19 when I dropped out (because I was pissing money in the wind doing so). I'm 26 now, about to start taking more courses in January. Going for a technical degree in communications technology. I work with satellites right now, and love it. Wanna take it further.

The first two years of college for me were pretty rough. I was looking forward to it at first, thinking I'd make friends, but once I got there I faced the same exclusion I did in high school. I had paranoia too and it got in the way of me making friends. I started my third year this term and it's gotten a lot better. I have more friends now but I can't explain why. I just hope it doesn't crash and burn.

I think if you go to a college outside of the home town you grew up in, your experience will be better and more rewarding.
Going to a community college near your high school feels like an extension of high school and feels like the same old shit.

Mixed bag for me.
I had fun some of the time but I was fucking miserable for a good chunk of it as well. I went to 4 different colleges so it was hard to find my stride sometimes.
I would say the only thing I took away from college was a degree (didn't really learn anything though) and I made some lifelong friends

I have definitely mixed feelings about college.
On one side, it was some amazing years. Not having to work, learning cool new interesting stuff every single day, being on a gorgeous campus and seeing hot and i mean HOT college girls everyday was a paradise for sure.
On the other hand, i did get very lonely, no real friends and i was too shy/scared/sad to ask out the ultra-hot college girls. Plus i failed a lot of courses, which made me quite sad.
But overall, it was pretty awesome. I wish i could go back. I would say it was 75% awesome, 25% sad/depressing.
I do have a lot of regret not making moves on girls cause i wanted to "play it safe" being friends with them. I took no risks. so stupid of me

At least you didn't catch a venereal disease.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Oh how i miss lan parties and getting together with the dudes. College was good in ways. Mainly for being thrown into meeting so many ppl. Nowadays it seems hard to find reasons to get the dudes together.

I can say that if you went to a four year school and didnt enjoy it theres a strong chance you'll seldom enjoy anything socially oriented in the future.
Not that theres something wrong with that. But college is entirely what you make it...lots of opportunity. If you didnt enjoy that good luck enjoying the rest of your life
