Re: How did you deal with life after college?
Make new friends. Find a new girlfriend. Pay off your debts and move out of your parents' place. Not much more to it than that.

There is already a whole forum for this ps. I think this seriously applies in this case. [/ QUOTE ] For once, this is a genuine good response. Welcome to the real world, you're not alone. Although I do believe the experienced folks at QLC can give you much better advice than the people here of OOT. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: How did you deal with life after college?
[ QUOTE ]
Maybe I am in the minority, but I have entered some pretty bad depression since graduating in May. I had a pretty active social life in school, and was always trying to have fun... plus obviously the girls were available. Since school has ended, I've realized that my friends have moved to different parts of the country, my on again off again girlfriend has broken my heart yet again, I'm in a job that allows me to do nothing but think about how sad I am from the break up. I'm still living at home, as I am in debt to my parents for lawyer fees (another story), and I have to pay them back and THEN begin saving for a place. All in all, [censored] ain't great, and there is nobody even at work that is my age who I could meet, no girls, nothing. Has anybody else gone thru anything like this that could shed some light on what I should do? I feel like [censored]. [/ QUOTE ]  Welcome to my world

Re: How did you deal with life after college?
bro, your feelings are completely common. Many of us have "early 20's depression". Mine didn't come from graduating school, it came from just feeling like I wasn't accomplishing anything, and that my life was passing me by. My advice, look for a new job, pick up some new hobbies. Hobbies that get you outdoor or active. Finally, come up with a plan that you want to do within 3 years. Focus yourself and drive for what you want to achieve.

[ QUOTE ] Go to grad school. [/ QUOTE ] That's what I did. Only do it if you really want to get the degree. Don't do it to escape something else. It's hard work, pays very little, and cuts into what should be your life. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.
