I'm in college and it's away from home. I'm going to be a junior this fall and I just feel scared about going back to school in the fall. My only close friend there will be in Austria studying abroad all year.
My freshman year was at a different school and I had traumatic experiences there so I didn't really make any friends.
Last year (Sophomore) was great. I transferred to a new school so I had to basically start over, but I only made a few friends who aren't really close and one close friend who I mentioned who is going away.
I'm afraid of next year. I feel like I will be starting over again looking for someone to hang out with on a regular basis. I'm tired of feeling lonely and it gets exhausting to have to keep starting over and find new friends each year. I just want something stable. How can I find that?
I didn't really focus on a social life in high school so I feel like I would like to take part in that in college, even though I know: I'm there to learn.
