What Move-In Feels Like For a Junior With Anxiety

Moving in for me means:

- My parents coming to 'help'

- Worrying if this means criticism or actual help

- Getting over my anxiety about moving and kicking my butt into gear to pack

- Being overcome by anxiety and freezing half way through packing

- Selling my furniture

- Having one person reject my furniture

- Having a panic attack because I'm moving out today and what can I do now?

- My parents finding a solution to the problem and saving the day
- Feeling incredibly lucky my parents are here

- Packing the car to the brim

- My cat getting stressed out during a car journey
- Worrying for his wellbeing

- Unpacking the car and placing box after box in my new room

- Immediately becoming overwhelmed with all that I have to do to make this room feel like home

- Beginning to unpack

- Seeing friends and being reminded of why I love Bryn Mawr so much

- Going to sleep with 3/4 of my things left to unpack

- Waking up throughout the night because I am not yet used to the mattress

- Waking up properly at 8am to discover I am allergic to something in my new room and resigning myself to suffering

- Realizing I am strong and can do anything I can set my mind to

- Getting out of bed, taking an antihistamine, and starting to unpack the rest of my things

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life.
