Your experiences are valid: It's okay not to have had extensive relationship or social experiences at this stage in your life. Everyone's journey is different, and there's no "right" timeline for these things. Your experiences, including your disabilities, have shaped who you are, and they don't define your worth or potential for future connections.
2.
Be open to new opportunities: University offers a diverse environment with various clubs, organizations, and social events. Take advantage of these opportunities to meet new people who share your interests and values. Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try new activities.
3.
Seek support: Most universities offer support services for students with disabilities and mental health concerns. Don't hesitate to reach out to these resources if you need assistance or accommodations. Additionally, consider joining support groups or seeking counseling to help navigate any challenges you may encounter.
4.
Focus on self-confidence: Confidence plays a significant role in forming connections with others. Work on building your self-esteem and embracing who you are, including your disabilities. Remember that you have unique qualities and perspectives to offer, and the right people will appreciate and respect you for them.
5.
Stay positive: While it's natural to feel apprehensive about starting university, try to maintain a positive outlook and approach this new chapter with optimism. Remind yourself that it's an opportunity for growth, learning, and new experiences.
6.
Be patient: Building meaningful relationships takes time and effort. Don't be discouraged by setbacks or rejections along the way. Keep an open mind and continue to put yourself out there, knowing that genuine connections will come with time.
