Hi, smeyers. Welcome to the board.

I'm so sorry to hear about what you're going through. High school and my first two years of college were extremely anxiety ridden for me so I feel for you.

I'm 21 now and a senior graduating in May 2017.

I don't know how much help I can be but reaching out to others even when it seems like no one cares and that you're a burden or that you should be strong enough to do it on your own.... those thoughts aren't true. People are rooting for you. Your professors WANT you to succeed, especially at a smaller college. They do care and if you tell them what you're experiencing, chances are they will be understanding.

I've had a mentally ill friend who had to retroactively withdraw from a semester so that may be an option if you would like a clean slate.

I'm also curious about what you're majoring in? I was originally an English Literature major but realized that wasn't for me, but felt like my only 'talent' was in writing. So, I changed my major to Professional Communications which is what I really wanted to be doing all along.

Follow your talents and passions. Change your major to what YOU want to do.

Good luck.
