7 Times 'Parks And Rec' Perfectly Described Having A College Breakdown
YouTube

Let's face it. College is a bit cumbersome at times. There are the late nights with term papers, the cranky professors, the existential crises, and of course, the ever growing loom of the future peering down your neck at all times. If we don't find ways to alive some of these things, they can spiral into an full-on college breakdown.

That's why students across the United States turn to several sources of relief from this occasional dreariness. Some turn to clubs and social events, some turn to naps, but for most of us, we turn to Netflix.

And what better way to put our college breakdown into words than with one of our Netflix favorites: "Parks and Recreation".

1. That one time where Andy Dwyer said what all of us tell our parents when they ask how college is going:

2. When Ben's brutally honest news caption related to us all a little too well:

3. Leslie's reaction to a bad day represents all of our reactions to even the smallest setbacks:

4. Ron's solution to a rough day seems logical to every college student:

5. Chris being bombarded with water balloons is all of us with that insanely hard exam:

6. Andy is pretty spot on with the last stage of the college breakdown:

7. And even after all this damage from our college breakdown, Donna in her wisdom tells us the perfect recovery plan:

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun.

When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.

angry driver

I definitely can relate to road rage. Every state in America has their fair share of drivers that will make you go insane. Whether it is going 10 miles under the speed limit, or those who drive half way off the road because they are putting on make-up. Sometimes I wish I could do society a favor and work at the DMV so I could fail all of the drivers who put my mental health at risk.
