University life can be fun and fulfilling, providing you various opportunities to acquire new skills and knowledge, develop your character, and make friends from different nationality and culture. This is an important milestone before you join the workforce and launch your career.

However, adjusting to the new environment and managing academic and personal demands may induce high levels of stress and anxiety.  Confiding in family or friends is a good coping strategy but if the issues persist over a long period of time, consider seeking professional help as an option before these issues affect your quality of life.

"Thoughts are things; they have tremendous power. Thoughts of doubt and fear are pathways to failure. When you conquer negative attitudes of doubt and fear you conquer failure. Thoughts crystallize into habit and habit solidifies into circumstances."
