Why am I so unhappy at UC Berkeley?

I’m currently attending UC berkeley and I feel so unhappy here…mainly because I have had choices between UCLA bus econ and UCB econ and I ended up chossing berkeley(I’m originally from LA…it’s like the first moment I saw the city, it already made me depressed…and I lost all my energy for studying and felt stressed out all the time living here…and I personally feel like this school is lack of "humanity", the professors don’t really care about what you think..they just go thier way…I would like to know is it just me or other people might feel this way, too? please give me some input.

It’s okay to feel this way, but you should try to be more positive. I know it’s hard, but try to do some fun stuff. Join some clubs, go to dorm activities, and try hanging out with friends. Try RallyCom; it’s huge and it’s really energetic. It’s your first year, everyone gets that. If you really think you can’t handle it, go to the Tang Center and see the psychologist. I think you still get 3 free sessions. UCB is tough, but believe me it’s worth it.
