Do NOT go to college if you're neuroatypical. Holy shit, it's fucking brutal. It's so much worse than highschool. I'm dropping out after 4 months. I hate normies so much its unreal.
>>80080102what happened anon tell us more
>>80080102What bad experiences are you having so far? It may seem hard at first but you can adjust to it and get through successfully. You can do it.
>>80080115>>80080121Well first of all i dont even know why i chose this major when i dont care about it or like it. Its very hard and i just cant get myself to study something i dont like. I have no friends, everyone in my class of about 200 people has found their own group, everyone has at least one friend and im all alone. Most people know each others names and i barely know anyone and no one knows me. In highschool there were other retards and autists i could hang ou with, but those kinds of people dont go to college. Everyone is such an NPC. My 2 roommates are the biggest normies i have ever met. I tried so hard to be nice to them and to get them to like me but they just dont understand me. I dont talk much so they think its because i dont like them or something. Its like they cant comprehend the idea that someone can just be different. They literally make plans together right infront of me and act like i dont exist. Atleast in highschool i could fight back when someone tried to bully me, theres not much you can do when everyone just ignores you.Maybe next year I'll go to a different college and try again.
>>80080487>Well first of all i dont even know why i chose this major when i dont care about it or like it.anon, normie or not if you just go to college without a plan of what you want to do or be then of course youre going to suffer>In highschool there were other retards and autists i could hang ou with, but those kinds of people dont go to college.they do go to college they just already have their groups and cliques which unironically are harder to enter than normie spaces because they are so particular and opposed to change>Everyone is such an NPC.normies don't want to interact with people that don't have something to offer them, it's even more evident in college where people are going to study to get a careeryou still haven't said mentioned what you're studying, i'm guessing because it's a meme degree
>>80080599>they do go to college they just already have their groupsWell apparently not here, and even if there are some they're spread out among the normie groups.>normies don't want to interact with people that don't have something to offer themI've been way more helpful to my roommates than others they've made friends with, you dont win people over by being useful.Also its electrical engineering
>>80080102Too late. I'm close to graduating anyway.
>>80080781I know it sucks but just finish your degree and try to get a decent job. If you have to switch majors or schools do so but just focus on getting a job to get paid. Outcasts never get a good social experience I know that seems harsh but it's just not in the cards for us. If you drop out all your other options will just make you more miserable. You already did the hard part getting started. You don't want to wageslave construction or retail or warehouses like I have for 17 years. Just finish a useful degree and get a job anon you'll be better off. Do something you're good at not something you care about. People that tell you follow your passions are already rich.
>>80080975I understand that, its just that im too depressed to study so im not sure if i could even finish the first year if i stay. I think it might be best to NEET for a year and then try again somewhere else next year. After all im only 19, i got plenty of time.
>>80080102>Be extremely neuroatypical, anxiety so bad I can barely have conversations>Go to college to study cinema>First week I make no friends>Parents going batshit at home I'm at the end of my rope>Sit at a park bench and have a full on mental breakdown with tears and negative self talk and all>Drug dealer from my class sits next to me, tells me bits of his tragic backstory and that I'm not missing out on much since everyone else in the class are cringy theatre kids>They all like him cause he sells weed but he says none of them are "friend material">Dude let's me crash at his place until I get my own >Dealer, me and another psycho we met at the bar decide to lock in and actually make short films>Turns out the guy from the bar is a genius that came from across the country and got in our school through recommendation, also his place is huge so it becomes our base of operation>Use the schools weed clientele for free manual labor during our movies>Everyone else is mostly too depressed to be serious competition>School board ends us the keys to the kingdom, which is free access to all of the school's cameras, sound equipment, high tech stuff, props and costume>Second lockdown hits we get a call from the school board they get us passes so that we can legally be outside at all times>We had Paris to ourselves, for more than a year we were roaming Paris stoned every night filming shit or writing shit back at the base, we could get free passes for anyone so getting free manual labor was even easier >It was only us, some homeless, police officers doing races in empty Paris and the firefighters>Everyone who roamed at night was in the same mindset of having fun, most of the time it felt like it was just us in a post apocalyptic empty paris>4 years later still best friends and still making filmshttps://youtu.be/c11C3e8wpx4?feature=shared
>>80080487its what I did, transferring is ez mode compared to admissions out of high schooljust keep your grades up
Don't be a retard like me anon. College has never helped me once after graduating. The whole experience was worthless and a huge waste of several years of my life.
>>80080102You realized it too late. Take a distance learning course.
>>80080102I didn't go to college and now I'm stuck working a dead end retail job that I hate. Maybe you won't meet any friends but atleast you might have a chance at living an ok life if you stay in college.
>>80080102Im autistic and I may not have made many friends and I got 0 pussy but I liked college a lot but mostly because I like studying for things and taking tests
>>80080102i also dropped out after my first semester. i actually cant tell you whether or not its a good decision because i dropped out 3 months ago, so only time and hindsight can really tell. but im trying to a chill overnight security job and try and maybe try and start a distance learning program like >>80082050 said. the issue for me wasnt really the material, but college is really a social and sensory overload. i hated living in a dorm, i hated constantly being around other people. i didnt know what i was doing either
>>80082090I have a degree and the only thing I could get was a dead-end factory job. Trust me. It's pointless.
>>80080487>I'm lazy, stupid, and unsociable and it's everyone else's faultI know, there there
>>80081907>saved by a neurotypical taking you under their wingOften this is the only way for a sperg to thrive, many of us just never get that person who steps in, you're very lucky
>>80080102Yeah same, I dropped out after 1 semester. I didn't know what to choose so I just went computer science, it was easy enough but I was completely miserable. it was so alienating. Zero friends, couldn't make any. It made me realize that I got lucky in highschool, and I'm the problem with my horribly shit personality, and that apparently I have some mild form of anxiety. I don't know what I'm gonna do now aside from try and get a job and trying to fix my autism.
>>80081907wow what a dream. That film you linked sucked though.
>>80080102>>80080487Everyone else is gonna give you shit, but I'm also an autist who went to college and I feel your pain. I'm so bewildered at how fast and consistently social groups form, I blinked and everyone had friends but me. I can pretend to be a normalfag pretty well, but I don't even know what to do for somebody to be my friend. Every time I go outside or to the cafeteria everyone else is with someone else, when does this happen?It was alright at first, I just kept my grades up and browsed 4chan during the day, but it's slowly eroded my sanity. I thought my usual introversion would save me, but it turns out near-total isolation takes its turn on even the spergiest of spergs. I bought a gun and almost an hero'd at the end of last semester. I only have one semester left, so I'm just gonna go for it and finish the degree. Wish me luck.
