I'm a 21 year old boy who has completed community college with an associate's degree and is now going upstate to a good uni that is known for being a great Computer Science school. Because of good grades, opportunities and a Autism/Asperger's diagnosis, I have been able to enjoy free tuition. So good, I almost get paid to go to school. Me and a friend that goes to the uni is gonna start living together at a cheap but pretty shabby apartment (had to spray for roaches). I just moved most of my stuff yesterday and while I was moving I felt like I was gonna die and I felt like wanting to die. It felt surreal moving everything out of a room that I have lived in for years. Tuesday I will get internet so that's when I will move completely over there. I had a mental breakdown by the end of the day. I sobbed all by myself for almost 3 hours. My dad and his wife are now extremely worried about me and slightly frustrated that something I have been excited for for months has now turned me into a bumbling emotional wreak. I have an unrealistic fear that I will forget to pay rent or will have a run in with the manager. I'm anxious to get a new bank account and other things like that. Am I normal? How can I get back to being excited by the new experiences I now have in front of me and how can I stop feeling like shit?
I've learned that drugs like Kratom have made my move more bearable. It's funny how our feelings are so unreliable and unpredictable. Are we just bags of flesh with brain chemicals that make us into ravenous animals?

Confess and commit suicide. You'll go to heaven and you'll stop feeling like shit there. Also (above), a lot of people have problem dealing with emotions, that does NOT make us less human. Needing sometimes chemichal help is no shame.
I was the same way, it'll go away once you get used to it, then it will feel like home. This is just a part of growing up

Growing pains suck, man.
Things are starting to fell better. I hate having emotional breakdowns like this.
