Dear Hanna,
Your approach of grabbing the bull by its horns is a good one and you should trust your instincts. Just embrace the possibility of failure and take the risk. If you can get past these barriers, you can achieve anything. By dealing with certain challenges already, you have accomplished a lot and there is no turning back from here. You are a responsible adult and you have made a choice to attend the college and all you need to do is to follow through. Continue with your therapy and you may need to work on an issue or two resulting from the college but the benefits outweigh the risks by much greater margin. Go for it and keep us posted. Godspeed!

Now one thing about me is that if im scared of a situation, I go into it full on. I take the bull by the horns and tackle it. Which is a quality that I love. Ive been in therapy for years. I've been diagnosed with Generalized anxiety disorder, OCD, and depression. I guess i'm writing this to hear some encouragement and to have real people backing me up, instead of me just talking to myself over and over again! lol. So if you have any encouragement or even experience please PLEASE help me out(:
Thank you!!
