Hi! I tried last year. I’m a sophomore now and I can now say I’m so glad someone found me (u of u security guard who was off campus for some reason). I had years of unaddressed depression and anxiety. The transition to college and the party life of being on campus was just too much for me. I started drinking 4-5 days a week, was taken advantage of three times, stopped doing any of my schoolwork, and felt like there was no hope left for me. (Continuing because it won’t let me type more)

Living alone was also really hard for me because of how alone I felt and how I felt like I didn’t have that social pressure to keep my life together. After I attempted, my family canceled my housing contract and I moved back home. I started therapy, got my shit together, and now I live in an apartment because I wanted to prove to myself that I could be independent in the right way. Thank you U of U security!! If you posted this because you’re struggling in any way (continued)
