College teens suffering from social anxiety

It is very common for college teens to suffer from social anxiety disorders, especially for those who are introverts by nature. Students living out of town in dormatories away from their families tend to feel homesick. If grades also start to drop they lose confidence in themselves, which causes their grades to drop more often. This leads to a sense of failure, inferiority complex and teenagers are often found to develop social anxiety disorders which could turn into depression.
Teens in this situation need to understand that they cannot live under the constant supervision of their parents and they have to learn to make it in the world by themselves. Parents have the responsibility to instill such ideas in their child before sending them off to college. The student must also realize that getting the opportunity to study in college is a privilege that not many people in the world can boast about. In other words it is important for them to understand that depression and socia anxiety will not help them solve any problems and their mission in life is to complete their duties that they have signed themselves up for. If the field of study is not suitable, then proper action should be taken to change over to a discipline that the student has an interest in.
Open your minds, there is more to the world than your own inhibitions. Reach out and embrace the infiniteness of the world. Believe in yourself and you will soon surprise yourself by what you can achieve in life.
