Absolutely, going to college is a pretty big transition. I was terrified at first, but I ended having a great time there. Don't feel bad about being scared, a lot of people do when facing a big change, it's totally normal.

Fear of going to college is normal and very common. Many people fear leaving the comfort zone of high school and living at home. When that comfortable routine gets disturbed it can cause anxiety.

Perfectly normal. College can be a huge deal especially since it's such a big change. Honestly though, there's a lot more freedom involved and you'll love it!

Of course! College for sure is a bit of a scary thought so it is normal to feel a bit anxious. If these feelings overwhelm you though, it may be a good idea to talk to someone you trust.

Of course, change is hard, expecially a big change like that. Once you get ajusted you should start to feel better.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
