'What's wrong with me?' is your question. Nothing - you sound like a great young person. Life is trying in all sorts of ways -

I found my first year of college tough too, (like most normal people, remember!), because I was much more shy and self-conscious. Try work out of the old secondary school mind-set of being cool/"acceptable". College is where you leave all that self-esteem-crushing stuff at the door, be yourself and, most importantly, are NEVER ashamed of being yourself. Do go to the college counsellor if you need support. Loads of people go through this, nothing "wrong" with you at all. :)

The first year of college is a big adjustment in terms of home, friends and study. Don't be too hard on yourself. If you can relate to a couple of people in your class, that's all you need to get going. College is where people get to actually be themselves. If you are really worried though, go to the college chaplin/counsellor. They are there to chat to and reassure you. Please don't feel so unhappy and not tell anyone. Lots of people go through this.
