  What make you feel or think that you are not ready for the real world ? Do you have doubts in your abiities ? Do you feel too young ?

  I think the world can make us all feel a bit scared from time to time. Is it just about growing up or is it about feeling confident that we can understand what is going on? I always felt like I never got the notes that explained a lot of stuff that other people understood. ant.

  a little bit of both, I just graduated college and I feel like I'm not ready, like I'm too young, didn't learn enough and missed the cliff notes on real life things like how much do you save versus pay back your college loans, how do you get insurance, etc. It's different and I'm scared...

  Hello again,

  It sounds like you are putting yourself under lots of pressure to get it all right from the outset. I was the same and worried myself into a rut. I wonder if your college has a mentoring programme that you could ask about. You might find another graduate who has dealt with these issues and can talk you through them. ..Have you thought of starting a TA here - tell Wallers what country you are from and maybe they know some of the answers or some places to get answers. It is brave to be able to talk about being scared. Let me know if you want to talk more here. ant:)
