why am i only seeing this thread now... i'm scared that this will be me after hsc...
probably will be lol

dw though, can confirm now that its been ~1.5 months, its basically just turned into waiting around for uni. ive just been doing nothing productive mostly combined with some productive hours (light textbook reading ahead for uni) and its good, feels good to not have to constantly spam past papers and learn that little bit more in the subjects i like. also uni environment is prolly gonna be less intense than high school in terms of competitiveness (though it obviously depends on the uni [unsw lol]), at least we can work together now and not be punished

my post hsc depression was rlly real I think it's bcz I didn't do shit for 3 months, which isn't as pleasant as it sounds. I reckon I should've gone out w my friends more often, gotten a job reignite my hobbies, felt like I wasted away that whole period which made the "depression" worse and kept me stuck in the past I had just left behind. horrid ive made many too many mistakes in life but whatevr didn't know better at the time

in all seriousness though, we all have regrets. You might be stuck in the past, but the rest of the world isn't. It will slowly pass as does any of our embarassing/sadder encounters.

Sorry if I'm being ignorant but why does post hsc depression happen? Do you lose a bit of your sense of purpose after the hsc is over?

yeah kinda, idk abt others but I didn't picture a life beyond high school until I was forced to after hsc. my purpose for a long time was to do well in school top all my classes etc. so once that was over it took me a long time to detach from the hsc chapter yfm
