I’m failing out of Architecture school, everyone I love thinks I’m doing ok.
Hi, I’m 22 year old man and I’m kind of in a tough spot in my life to say the least. Ok first some context, I first went to school wanting to get a degree in liberal arts, but realized AI was on the rise and it was too competitive so I switched majors to architecture. Definitely a challenge but I managed the first year fine and moved on into the second. I was technically a Junior in college atp for context. However that fall semester I ended up failing, mainly due to anxiety caused by my ADHD.
Following this, I decided to not tell my parents or anyone I knew about this, I was so embarrassed and ashamed that I just hid the fact it happened. So I secretly did part time the spring semester, and I tried again this last fall. I passed this time, however this spring I fear I might have failed again, I’m trying to talk with my advisors right now to see if anything can be done, but it’s not looking good. And for context I failed for similar reasons as last time…
I know my decision making was horrible here feel free to tell me about it in the comments if you wish, but I genuinely need some advice. I know I need to tell the people I love, but I’m so afraid, I don’t know what I’m going to do with my life and I’m scared. I’m technically a senior, and people around me are graduating while I’ve basically have gotten nowhere with my life. Any advice would be helpful, even the obvious.
Thank you for reading.
