I got a first overall in second year, meaning I just need to get 2:1s in my third year modules. I should be really happy, but I have literally no one to tell or celebrate with. I’ve told my mum but she’s generally not concerned with my academic abilities so I honestly just feel really lonely and upset. I feel like I’ve sacrificed my social life to get this degree but now that seems pointless.
I had a lot of friends in sixth form, but arguments within the group etc ended up with us parting ways, and I’ve struggled to click with people at my uni (Imperial). I’ve realised, especially in this lockdown, that I genuinely have no friends and I’m wondering whether the first is even worth it
