Oh Krow, I feel your pain even though it was decades ago when I struggled to make it through the last year of high school.

Well one thing I wish I realized was the things that bothered me in HS were also there in college. What I wish I had done was build a satisfying life for myself that I could carry over into college.

I would check out clubs at the school and find something similar in your last semester.
Yoga has helped me not react to all the craziness around me.

Rather than changing or trying to change the system, I began to change my reacting to the situation. That is the only thing we can control, our reactions.

Mindfulness can train us not to react. Breathe naturally, and silently count 1 on the inhale and 1 on the exhale, 2 on the inhale and exhale, continuing up to 10. Then start at 1 again. Repeat as needed. The mind cannot do two things at once.

Many people here at PC find they can share these feelings and what they are going through with the confidence that people go through similar things and can empathize. So many forums are offered as well as Chatrooms (after you have 5 posts or comments on others posts). Depression chat meets on Thursday night at 9pm EST and Anxiety Friday at 8PM.

You can also be an active member in other ways like supporting others in their questions, reading articles and posts http://forums.psychcentral.com that are applicable to your area of concern.

For me lifestyle changes fit big in my recovery hopes.

I have to watch what I eat because foods I eat can stabilize my moods or exaggerate them. A high protein low carb diet with snacks or meals every 3-4 hours will over time reduce my swings. I also avoid alcohol and recreational drugs because those can really increase depression.

Other lifestyle changes that help me are doing yoga, exercises, mindfulness, calm music, and being active on Psych Central.
