College Students:
Prioritizing mental health and building self-esteem are essential for college students navigating the pressures of academics, social life, and the party scene. The desire to fit in, keep up with social expectations, and balance responsibilities can feel overwhelming, leading many to sacrifice their well-being in the process. In a world where fitting in can feel like a constant challenge, maintaining a strong sense of self fosters resilience, confidence, and a more balanced, fulfilling college experience.
