"The Subway Chronicles: Self Control"

[1:17am]

I’m sitting on the subway right now. It’s really late and I just wanted to go home. But you know man…when what you need to do isn’t what actually goes thru in reality.

So I’m sitting here trying to figure out... Self control.

And I find myself asking, "where did mine go?"

When I started supplying everything for myself...

Independent

but never had a voice to ask for help.

So… again..

I’m just sitting here,

Questioning everything that got me here.

Should I be there & not here? Should I be where I lost my self control, when it began to disappear?

Something's telling me no, It’s long gone. But, it can be rebuilt and I’m not alone.

In New York City, so many people have lost their self control. I’ve recently learned that it’s important to roll with what you have right now,

Wherever you go.

Everyone tells you that college is hard, but they fail to explain why. Sure, classes are hard. Math sucks, and political science can be so boring. But that's not even what's killing me about college. What's killing me about college is my deterioating mental health.

As a college student, I feel as if people don't understand just how exhausted I, and fellow college students are. We have so many things going on, all the time, and sometimes it's hard to explain to people how we feel. Personally...I'm tired. I'm sad. And I'm struggling every single day with my emotions. But the thing is, it hasn't always been this way. I haven't always hated school, so why am I feeling like this now?
