1. Write Your Goals
Going over your goals is one of the best ways to deal with graduation anxiety. Make a physical list of some of the things that you want to achieve after you have graduated. Having this list to look back on will help to ground you in some sort of achievable reality rather than feeling like you are falling through space with no safety net. Instead of having to contend with imagining ALL the possibilities, just work on the ones that you have written down to get you started.
2. Do Something Every Day
Make sure that you do something productive every day after you have graduated, and this will stop you from getting into too much of a funk in terms of inactivity and becoming a hermit. Whether it’s going on a job hunt or getting out to the gym, make sure that you can look back on the day and say that you did something that is beneficial for you.
3. Make the Most of Your Remaining Time
Don’t waste the last few months of your college experience worrying about what is going to happen after it is finished! Plan a road trip with friends, stay up all night with your housemates to see the sunrise as much as possible, do all of the things that will give you great memories to look back on when you are eventually a member of the real adult world!
4. Don’t Worry
Ultimately, you just need to not worry! That’s easier said than done, but you need to trust in the content of your character and rest assured that even if it takes longer than you might have expected, your life will come together in a way that will allow you to achieve exactly the things that you wrote down on your list from the first tip!
