i had a hard time with college because of my mental health, too.

i started at the college i'm at now as a sophomore, i had like a year and a half of credits. i only took 12 credit hours at a time and it took four years to get to where i am today.

all i have left is putting on my BFA art show and i'm taking an extra semester to do it with no classes.

school is hard and i had to go at a much slower pace than everyone else because i get depressed and anxiety. i thnk college was one of the best and worst things to happen to my mental health. i've had a lot of set backs, but i've also grown a lot in this process.
