First of all, it’s ok to feel like things are out of control and it’s ok to seek the help that you need. Reach out to people around you. Make friends. Use the support systems that the university has in place, they’re there for a reason.

I arrived in a taxi with my parents and it was really scary at first, I didn't know what I was doing or where I was going! There was a whole team of students saying 'Hi! Welcome to Kent! Do you need any help?'
