writes: hey allI am an art student and I was in college- completed my diploma but dint get accepted for my bachelors. So I have an off year and I'm re doing my portfolio and working part time. It's not the happiest time of my life. I was really taken aback by my rejection because all my professors loved my work and my grades were good. But I suppose something did go wrong and it was unexpected. I am very anxious and nervous whether or not i will get in this time. I'm not working full time so money is very tight and I'm living my parents and it's very kind of them to have me but it's very hard living with them. Living under heir roof means that I have to follow their rules. My confidence has shot down so much, money is tight and I am nowhere right now. If I try and share my ordeal with my friends I'm told I have an "unhappy" and "heavy" energy around me. I'm judged. I can't share my feelings with my parents because I don't want to trouble them further. I am going through a really trying time and I'm all alone through this. Please do help me deal with this? Any kind words, support, pointers or advice would be helpful!Thanks a lot!

Allow the situation living with your parents push you to focus harder on your studies. Yes it is hard living as an adult under the same roof as your parents, it can make us feel like we have failed and that we are still getting treated as a child. Off course you need your own space to find yourself as a person.
Yes it is difficult but try and use it positively. Remember you have two parents that love you, friends who are there for you. ( My guess is that they just don't know what to say to you to make you feel better) and a part time job that gets you out of the house.

I can fully understand your situation and its not easy,right now one could say you are carrying an overload.But you are still doing very well with regards to your study and on that level you can try and try again.I want you to sit down and reflect on living with your mum dad and remember ONE day when they are not around-you will look back to the now and remember with peace and love.Right now you dont have a lot of money and you have house rules but think positive this wont last forever.After your studies are finished you will have a happy future to look forward to Enjoy what you have now and keep going.Try not to worry so much in life its good to take ONE DAY AT A TIME.Best Wishes.NORA B.
