Can someone please convince me I’m not an idiot for having to take additional years in college to get a degree because I didn’t know what I wanted career wise and because of my mental health 😪

I had to take a medical leave for surgery, you’re okay (and added on an extra minor). There’s probably a ton of students who are also taking longer than 4 years but they just blend in with the rest of the student body

It’s gonna take me an extra year, 4 years isn’t the right speed for everyone!

That’s ok! You’ll still earn ur degree at the end of it all, so it’s worth it. It’s like we’ve all got a different lil individual journey to reach the same goal, but we can all get there
