Not all of these apply to me, but quite a few do. The one that hit me the hardest?

Social anxiety is staying in your dorm room during meals instead of braving the dining hall.

My entire freshman year. I ate the bad to-go food so that I could eat it in my room during lunch so that I wouldn't have to go up to the cafeteria. I went to dinner with my roommate if she was around, but other than that, it was always the to-go stuff. And on the weekends I seriously didn't leave the dorm except to grab food. Gah. I just had horrible flashbacks.
