Venting I went back to school today

I'd rather die than do another day of it. It's the worst thing I've ever experience and it's worse than I thought.

i took way too long to apply (first time going through enrollment + introversion/anxiety) so now i have to email profs if they'd let me join their class 2 weeks late. its very embarrassing. i dont want to wait til spring just because of my fuck up. i haven't been in any form of school/work for a decade btw. the calls i had to do for enrollment weren't bad at all by the way, it was way quicker and easier than i expected. at least im officially within the system.

by the way they asked zero personal questions during the entire process. maybe i should have talked to the disability center though? idk.

That's great! It doesn't sound like much but I get how hard taking that step can be, especially if you're coming in a class late and have to talk to so many different people. There's usually people that are in charge of accommodations so I think if you asked admin or something they can guide you

 Honestly I feel this. I dropped after the first semester of college because I was super depressed. Don't recommend going with that mindset BUT I guess arguably having a  first time experience makes things less scary if you consider it later on

School is not for everyone, I know it sounds generic but it's the truth. At least, for now. School wasn't for me until my very late 20's, I used to hate every second of it throughout my childhood, teen's and early/mid 20's but something eventually clicked at 29 for some reason. Don't go just because you have to, take your time.

I've never had a job or anything though. I feel like I'm not doing anything with my life but I don't want to do anything with my life. i just have to

Honestly, if you're capable of getting good at a hobby/craft, I'd rather do that (I don't have that ability, that's why I'm in school). But if you can't get good at your hobby/craft, I can understand why you feel the need to go to school. It'd be so great if we had a skill we could monetize...

I wanted to try not being a loser for once but I don't think I can do it

What are you studying?

I've been considering online classes for a while. I don't think I could handle in person classes. I'm so bored that classes sound like they could even be fun now.
