I just finished high school and Iike all my friend I applied to different universities, but while my friends got all letters of acceptance, I received only letters of rejection. In the last two days I received two letter of rejection that completely shattered my dreams and on top of that I also got rejected from the summer job I applied to. I feel so much like a failure, I am so tiered of pretending to be ok in front of everyone, I am tired of pretending of not caring. At night I can’t sleep because I am so scared of the future and any other rejection that I might face because I don’t know if I could handle it. I don’t know what to do anymore.

I’m sorry. I hope you find your path soon. I can sympathize with feeling like a failure. I hope one day you won’t feel that way.
Also I noticed this is your first post. Welcome. Posting on here won’t necessarily make you feel better, but it’s a great way to dump out the contents of your head. Kind of like a journal. People here are generally nice.
I don’t know how similar the experience is, but when I graduated undergrad I got rejected from every grad school I applied to, and I was devastated. It took me a further nine months to find a job, and that job flopped within the first eight months.
I changed direction, though I can’t yet tell you how that worked out. Different grad school, different program, only one application and I start in the Fall. It’s okay to be sad, and to mourn the life you were hoping for. The best any of us can do is pick up and try again.
Also, welcome, glad (is gladness appropriate?) to have you here. Grateful to have you here, always nice to have someone new to talk to.
Thanks, it’s nice to have a place to vent and also to know there are others out there who might understand me.
Unfortunately a lot of these things are just based on luck 🙁 Its really not you. I often think, some things are reserved for one in life and you oughta get rejected, to get on that path.
