Hi everyone! I'm Abbie

Hi everyone! =)
My name's Abbie, I've recently finished my undergraduate degree and I'm feeling somewhat lost and anxious about moving forward in the world. I'm struggling to come to terms with the fact my three years of study are over and I'm going to be able to say I have a degree. Everyone tells me I should be proud of how hard I've worked and what I've achieved, yet that is still something I'm personally trying to process. Anyone else?
Anyway, I wanted to join this community to share my experiences, and to listen to and support others! I am looking forward to communicating with other members, and hopefully make a difference to this community, one conversation at a time! After all, a problem shared is a problem halved!

    Hey Abbie, welcome to the community :smile:

    Congrats on finishing your degree! :star: You should be really proud of yourself for getting a degree, but I can understand that "weird" feeling of still processing everything <3 I was the same after undergrad and postgrad (and still am now whilst doing a PhD!), but in time you will be able to reflect on things and see how much you have achieved.

    Finishing your degree and leaving uni is a big deal and takes some time getting used to - be kind to yourself and take onboard the praise from those around you because you've earnt it <3:star: x
