Is it normal to be lonely in college?
Mostly.Normal for most people
Yes, feeling lonely in college is common, even when you’re surrounded by people. Making close friends and finding your people can take longer than you expect.
College can be a big reset: new routines, unfamiliar people, and maybe being away from the people who already know you. You can be in a crowded lecture hall or dorm and still feel like you don’t quite belong yet. That doesn’t mean you’re doing college wrong.
