I'm a second year architecture student, but facing the same situations as you. One of my friends advised me to write a daily diary by writing down your thoughts and emotions that can calm your anxiety. So I keep a pocket diary with me so whenever I feel anxious I write all my emotions on it calms, stops my overthinking.

[@maitrayasah2020]

I think the timing of the video personally for me is truly apt, been addicted to cold drinks and junk all through my 2nd, 3rd and 4th 1st sem and by the 2nd sem I started exercising yet by the end of it got diagnosed by severe liver disease, fits and high ammonia levels in blood, got hospitalised with bleak hopes of recovering yet came back. Got back, following a healthy lifestyle, going through a mental breakdown now, burderned by personal issues in all a very rough time. You covered most of the things I went through, felt like it was me saying it all, felt better. To good physical and mental health 👍🏻

[@surabhikulkarni8589]

I have been through that.... Writing the emotions whatever you feel and later discarding that paper really helps.

[@PositiveEmo]

I'm in my last year. I transferred to architecture at my low point. Spent 4 years in college, changed majors 3 times, no degree etc. I was hesitant because I looked at architecture as an art degree with minimal prospects, and I hated drafting. But going in gave me what I needed. I gained confidence in pursuing my interests and started doing things I wanted and worrying less. I found a community, and made friends. Even through COVID I'm better for it. Right now I'm worried about making the transition from college to work. I failed the previous transition from highschool to college.

I am glad you spoke about this! Architecture school makes us very resilient and strong to take on any challenges even after graduating. In many ways I feel that's great, (not that I am supporting bad times, looking at bright side up) but we learn from our experiences. More power to you:)

I am 32 years old. I came to Australia to study architecture In 2018. It has been the most humbling journey. I went through so many mental breakdowns and panic attacks that some days seemed to never end. My self doubt was at its height. Having never failed any units in my undergrad and having successfully worked at different firms for five years I couldn't understand why I couldn't do this. I wanted to give up many times and I did give up many times. Now I am one week away from my masterclass submission and I can't wait to finish. It has been four long years of my life and I've changed as a person in these four years .My realisation is that I could spend my life trying to figure things out but there will still be more and that's okay. It is a very hard course and makes you question many things but I have decided I'm gonna get that degree and then move on to things in life knowing that I crossed the hardest bridge of life. So for anyone reading this go across that bridge because looking back will be very fulfilling.

Wow this is so refreshing to see. Thank you for sharing. I am currently in an interior design program -- all online. I am unemployed and luckily I am able to live off a little bit of savings. I know that my program is just a certificate program, and I'm sure the coursework is not nearly as heavy as an architecture program...BUT studying online, with a lot of uncertainty looming overhead is really difficult. Also, I struggle terribly with perfectionism and procrastination and this feeling that I should have accomplished so much more than I have is eating away at me...my mental health is really bad right now. I'm also trying to put a portfolio together so I can find work in interior design and I can spend hours trying to assemble my portfolio in indesign and at the end of the day I just redo it over and over again until ther ei nothing left--it's like I'm ina negative feedback loop in my head.

[@priyankajoisher9300]

Went through something similar as you in my 3rd to 5th year in architecture school, but it was the other way round for me - I started hating architecture. 3rd year onwards all my architecture design work was getting worse and worse to a point that I was hardly able to complete my thesis and just worked enough to pass in the jury. What got me out of it was gardening, growing plants, working with soil, somehow relaxed me. Now I'm working at an Architecture firm, designing different types of projects and I'm enjoying the process.

Architecture is really depressing, currently when I'm doing my internship I'm really depressed because of my office. At that time I also feel like to harm myself in some way, i also had lot of breakdown. At that time I found my salvation in books i never really read books before but after that I started my day by reading self-help books. By reading them, i completely change.

[@Mjnividaditi]

It’s going to be difficult. No doubt but believe me, don’t just do it for the sake of getting a degree or working as an Architect. Do it because you truly want to design beautiful buildings.. Doesn’t matter if it’s taking hell lot of time or whether u have a deadline guys. I was in one of the most hectic college, where everyday was a submission or review day. And it was getting way too difficult. I was clinically depressed and had gone through the worst time in my 4th sem. I was in the hospital and didn’t like the change in environment bcoz I switched from one uni to the other college, which was well recognised in India. But that whole suffering taught me to work without paying attention to any of the stress, be it the deadline or anything. I remembered my 6th sem design was of a campus project and I completely changed my design right from the scratch 10 days before the review…. Almost the whole section was failed except 8 students. And I got the highest amongst all of them. And that too with just plans and physical 3D model. If any of the Archi students are demotivated and working without any interest due to the lack of time and flexibility then please do remember one thing, it’s all about the design for the final jury. Faculties maynot understand your process of working and that’s completely fine. If you know that you will do the best and you are trying to do something unique. Stick with it. Follow your gut feelings

[@Mjnividaditi]

Also I may plan to pursue something else soon. Master’s in creative industries or something If anyone here is interested to talk about this then feel free to connect.

I have also been through this similar experience. Actually in my bachelor's 3 year because of personal issues and also felt I change my myself like others want and at the end I can't find the real me and starting getting health issues, anxiety then I started spending time with my self whatever felt I put down on paper and do what I love to do like dancing, sketching and listening music. Its makes me feel better. At first is very hard to facing our own feeling but slowly I overcome..

This video came at the right time. I'm currently doing my mandatory internship with the prospect of getting my Bachelor's degree next year. I have a 3 hour commute in total every day, and my boss is the type to leave me in a state of anxiety every time I even so much as think of stepping foot in the office. It's a depressing time filled with dread, doubts, and nightmares, but I wanna believe that I will come out stronger after this. I don't wanna give a bad experience the power to take away my passion for architecture and feed further into my depression

[@rodfarid2056]

why is everyone depressed

[@Lyonessi]

​@@rodfarid2056perhaps this is simply a space where people albeit a handful feel comfortable sharing their struggles. If only bad news is brought up you'll easily begin to believe there is only bad news to be known.

[@ralphiesarch8980]

​@@rodfarid2056 but also architecture attracts egotistical assholes, narcissists and self loathers. If you're not one, you're the other. Years of being gaslit into believing the amazing work and effort we produce is worthless because someone else also did a good job is what's wrong with arch school. Art should not be a competition like it is

[@MugdhaMishra-wu6pg]

I think each and every architecture student at some point have been through such similar phase. As a high school student i was good in studies.I scored 83% in 12th and also a good rank in the entrance exam that made my entry into the field of Architecture.While in school ,i wont say i was great at drawing or arts ,yet i definitely had interest but i wasnt a pro. I used to read magazines that comprised of interior design and residents which made me interested in the field.Without doing much research ,i took admission. Ofcourse it wasnt easy at first.Something very differnt from what i had been studying for the past 12 years and so much more than just studying .First year was fun ,even though it was hard to stay consistent all the time .Back then i had a fire inside me ,i wanted to give my best performance but i was a shy and underconfident teenager with low self-esteem .Over the time with the hectic schedule,irrelevant time management and limited time ,i was never able to give my 100% to my project which made me feel miserable at times. But i knew i would level up no matter what untill 6th sem when the pressure reached at its peak.Thats when i decided i need to change some habits in order to keep pace with this major .Hence i worked hard in learning softwares efficiently,started to work more on myself ,maintained a good diet and exercised daily.And i can tell you it had a very positive impact in maintaining my lifestyle.Therewere nightouts but i felt more efficient and energized.This phase helped me in building a good portfolio for internship.Now i am in my final semester doing my thesis project and i dont know i no longer have the energy left in me to finish it .I feel tired,burned out and irritated most of the time.I am not motivated at all.At a point where i dont have the energy to tolerate the upcoming 1 month.i want to leave Architecture.Send help !! 😢

My time in architecture school was pretty good, but sometimes the instructors made things tough. Once, during a presentation, I got in trouble for wearing short sleeves, and the jury gave me a big lecture about it. It threw me off, and I couldn't present well after that. Many times, I found myself thinking about suicide because of the pressure.

thanks for sharing your story Rishabh. I've been in your place. what all you said had happened with me too, I feel very connected to your story. I used to be so fat all my college life. people used to comment on me a lot. I lost interest to atleast look at myself in mirror. I lost my confidence and what not. I used to wear only 2 pair of jeans through out 5 years of my college. I became so introvert because of that and couldn't even show my talent. people say that they had good college days but I was not able to enjoy mine. I had major burnout in 2020 and really became strong after that.however now I am happy cause I focused on myself and reduced weight, improved my mental health. I hope to achieve few other goals related to my architecture career as well.

It's may sound weird, but I've faced the same condition, I'm a sy b arch student, and doing really great in my academics, but my desires and fear of loss broke me from the deepest point.

2nd year architecture school in UWE Bristol, UK, got my final portfolio deadline coming up next week. These last few weeks (and the hole year) have been pretty tough because the work load is just immense. I notice my intrusive thoughts can be pretty depressing and negative and regretful sometimes. Some days r better than others. All in all I'm okay and looking forward to finishing so I can enjoy summer but architecture is certainly a big commitment. I'm passionate for it, hence why I spend insane amounts of hours getting the work up to a standard I'm proud of but it does completely stop me from doing my hobbies sometimes and that can be quite frustrating. Thanks for sharing the video. Very honest and I agree with the healthy food intake part. I worry that one of my architecture friends is living and eating unhealthily and drinking too much caffeine. Hopefully well all be fine soon.

[@ryafiow6659]

I am also fifth year arch.student. and basically this video is a small description of how my life went through this. Just like you Rishabh, I was also not in the right place when I entered architecture,so coping with the deals of architecture course was way difficult for me back then. plus social pressure of having friends group where you have to fit in but couldn't really fit in.Thank god,I am nerd which kinda help me not affecting my grades while going through all of this. I had my breakdown when I was in third year, when I got diagnosed for PCOS which was the repurcusiion of all of this. So I started to change all of this. Also I was not really liking the person I was becoming. I knew that something with me is wrong, but couldn't figure out what was that. Thankfully, The COVID thing was recently started so we all were sent to home and I really got some good time to work on myself which otherwise wouldn't have been the case. I started watching time management videos, started doing meditation and regular exercises. That really helped me to manage my studies without getting stressed. Just like you said, the designing/assignment part of architecture was actually the thing which helped getting out of this. I never got bored of it. Thanks to you for sharing this. I feel confident knowing there are people going through same phases like me.

[@DISHAKREDDY]

This s soooo relatable. I've had the mixed view on bachelors but my master's was bang on full of energetic n happiness throughout. Though i was happy during the day in college, it used to get difficult as the day passes. Feeling completely opposite by the evenings. Feeling of not getting out of room, didn't want to talk to friends or family, fatigue, poor appetite, constantly staring at the ceiling fan, wanting to quit, feeling no purpose in life n what not. I do try to keep myself by working extra but eventually i give up. 😓 I've successfully completed my course with good grades, yet feeling disappointed (don't know y). It's been over 6 months now, and everyday it's a struggle to be optimistic to get through this and wanting to b happy & at peace again. I could relate wen u said, what would it feel to hit the ground. I did feel it not just once but in many other ways. It's hard to put in words but I hope this shall pass too.

[@jhanualluri2518]

Been there but dint do it.

i failed two subjects of math as first year in architecture but i still wanna push through because I want to be an architect.

[@desertbloomke]

One thing I'm glad about is that your video isn't like many of the others where people actually quit architecture. It's about you recognizing that you were having a rough time, and your journey to make your experience better while still taking on the course. Because truthfully every course/career has its difficulties...and we may leave one thinking that it's going to get better...what if it doesn't? I'm starting my 4th year next week. I have also had most of the same thoughts a LOT of times...'Why did i choose architecture? Was it to impress my parents? Was it because i fed into the opinions that I wouldn't be able to make it in art?' And so on...but i also understood that I can be very volatile sometimes. I have a strong will and self-awareness and so there'll be times that i doubt my decisions, only to wait it out and see that things actually go well in the end. So i decided to bear with this road I've chosen. Now, i can thankfully say, I'm not regretting it. I nitpicked the things that made me 'hate architecture' and I looked to see if there was any way to get around the issue i.e 'All-nighters' Solution: plan my work process and get good rest no matter what. This among other things I'll be implementing this semsester has really helped me.✨️ I also revisited WHY i wanted to do architecture and reminding myself of this and looking to God and my family really helps me get back on track. There's nothing wrong with quitting(if that turns out to be what you'll go with) but sometimes all you need is time, to experience things and to get your footing, to tailor your experience. And I'm glad i waited instead of backing off. I'm encouraged by your story too.✨️

[@nikhithamamidi1442]

The comment section reminded me that I'm not alone feeling bad about the architecture school. I'm currently in my 3rd and have no good friends yet. I'm scared that i might not land in a good firm or whatever it takes to get successful.. because I heard from my scary seniors that if there's no good friends circle in architecture.. there's no future. I'm really worried about that because I'm a major introvert, poor at simple math and my mind goes blank whenever I've to face people. I always wonder how i manage my clients. I do have a goal of becoming a sustainable architect, designing green rated buildings but like mentioned before.. I'm just scared about whether I could really become one. It's just too scary to think all of this and yes, most of the time I search for the purpose of my life but cannot find any. On the other hand, academic work is getting tough day by day and I feel so overwhelmed because I can't even find time to water my plants. I got detached from my surroundings and my days are going in a monologue of going to college, work, coming home, working , eating and sleeping. I hope the future forms well!

[@Sufiyanhamayoun06]

Getting inspired from actor to choose architecture. Going to college with no experience and pulling through 0 knowledge was very difficult. I have pulled through all 4 years with migraines attacks. After graduating with degree, I got fear of no getting Job since I didn’t knew I should done some intership. Till 6 months of unemployment after graduation gave me all kind of thoughts from failure to depression till end life. Then I got assistant project manager job but that firm was unstable when their funds ran out they give me break for months and call me back when they have money. It has been 2 years. There excuses are endless with running out of money and not uneven firing me. I am so in depression that it has been 6 months I couldn’t find better job which I can switch cuz entry level architecture has higher expectations with experience. I really don’t know what to do this point cuz it so hard to get intership too.

Architecture is something you must be born for. It requires a lot of natural talent, passion and intusion. If you don't have that, you cannot go far with it even after graduation. This guy's videos have a lot of talk and theory; nothing really to do with actual architecture - a clear indication that he chose the wrong profession. He's meant to be a blogger and content creator. Architecture is just not in him.

[@blessedarch]

I wouldn't completely agree with that. I mean we are all entitled to our opinions and I am not commenting on your analysis of my skills or the channel. But what I disagree with is saying you must be born for architecture. Nobody is ever truly born for anything. Its your skill, your talent and your will that takes you anywhere in any field.

[@owenkigz3920]

I disagree with you. But if that's your opinion okay. Anyone can be what they want to become. It's a free world where we can learn skills, and how to apply them. For some it's smooth sailing for others it's rocky, but all in all they all sail to the shore.

To be honest, I decided to take few subjects. I simply left the subjects that were stressing me. I will probably take much longer to finish, but at least I feel better and I am actually liking architecture again, bc I started to truly dislike it when under a lot of stress

I can completely relate to his story!!!!!!!

[@sarthakjain7385]

It was year 2017 I was in my 12th, went away from my city. So basically a kid which always had strict parents so with no one to look at me i messed up i got 59.5% percent (ps I got 9.6 cgpa in 10th and you know Indian parents and their hopes). Next year my parents said fine we are giving you last chance I went bhopal I did all I could and still it wasn't enough to get where I was aiming. My parents and relatives really said they aren't proud of me anymore. There were other things going in my personal life. I was shattered. Idk what to do but my passion for architecture haven't shaken yet. I went ahmedabad ( I'm from madhya pradesh) and as a non gujrati speaking alone and i used to be always best in what I do but there or wasn't even good. My hands stopped working and I was working less than 25% of my Caliber. I used to be alone in my pg room not going clg playing games and in a very dark place I had Thaughts of going to a psychologist but with awareness back than it all felt like I'm just making excuses. Second sem I tried to get better but failed miserably. Missing viva for design I remember missing straight 19 days of my clg And as a result my faculties called my parents and said we cannot keep your son in our clg. I have to come back in middle of year. Than I got myself last chance of set myself to gwalior next year ie 2019 and started first year again. I stuck to it I got some friends and i got a best friend who I always with me and really help me to get out of that dark place. Cut to today I'm I'm 4th year doing good hoping to grab some good internship and a good job later. My advice- it's okay to fall get up again and just stick to it, find friends and family to talk to, and consulting to a psychologist isn't a bad thing.

[@nataguide1027]

[@ivanhaynes]

[@niyasmohammed3347]

Good Video Brother, Keep Going BTW I am tired with my B Arch🥺💔

Isha inner engineering program is the best part for everyone of us, my own experience.😇💓

[@Mi_shayara]

this was so relatable. thanks for sharing. I know how difficult it can be to talk about it. personally having a diet inclusive of fruits and walking every day definitely proved beneficial and it might not seem logical but it's effective. architecture student life is really hard on our body and mind.

[@dixhank]

Im doing architecture final year student feeling shitty af already failed my thesis project for 3rd time and i m still not feeling to do it idk why just a single sem left 😢

[@jaykhandla4043]

Thanks though it was only happening with me or some other ppl 😢❤

[@Jose-wk2uo]

I have the same problems in my mental health

[@javierpacheco8234]

For me I'm kinda disappointed because I want to become an architect but want to design in the traditional styles, most of my peers like modernism and do not care about traditional architecture, so at school I'm doing things on my own. Hope I find the people who support me because it feels lonely doing something that isn't so popular.

[@theerthakm971]

I choose a architecture school as it as low fee as my family could only afford that.. but now it literally make me feel depressed bcz of the quality they provide and class have just 6 members ... It gets on frustrating and boring

[@anzarqadri7942]

Should I do architecture in jmi

[@anzarqadri7942]

Should I do architecture at first place

[@AitanaPerez-bj6hp]

Architecture is one of essayist profession. I am architect in Mumbai but in professional life I think the profession is abused by lot of god architect like Hafez and sanjay puri and parin shah ARCHITECTURE is mess in Mumbai I am Architect but I hate Architects in Mumbai. also people studying Architecture in Mumbai remember your faculty is just teaching you how to work under builder and work for firm which is under influence of builder I thing faculty should Teach more than working for builder after finishing 5 years you're just draftsmen with Architecture tag.🙃

Architecture school : "YE DUUKH KHATAM KAHE NAHI HOTA BE"

Hang in there. Life is much simpler than we make it up to be in our heads. Seek help if you ever feel like hurting yourself again. You will get through this.

[@brycedsilva1142]

never ever consumed caffeine in architure school. i dont know how many haven't but caffeine intake is a drug which just destroys you.

The idea of architecture programs is lost on me. 4 years plus a masters program? Why not just take a two year program or learn how to draft, get a drafting job and use the paid working experience to learn the trade… and eventually qualify for an Architect’s license? Most states allow 6-10 years of work experience to nullify the education requirement. The work is hard, period. So why not get paid for it and establish yourself with your name on plans in the process? I’d definitely give up if I was working a job while attending school full time…

[@cameron.t]

Yes, half of the work hours must be under a licensed architect. But if you’re worth it, you will find that person or company.

[@_Bar_elaha_]

You looks not much good in college years. But looks young now. 😂

[@KaviNiwuhella]

Im going through in same stuation as you now 🥲

[@theartisticarchitect1856]

Hahaha your situation in architecture college, same situation I'm in after started doing jobs in the same field. I'm really really interested in doing architectural design work (vernacular architecture, home design) but to reach to that point I m going through jobs, not because it is needed but otherwise how and from where you will earn. But this is depressing and can't go through the torture anymore since you don't earn good that after a point you might have a good money. Hahahaha what to say, i think you and any other architect knows the situation already, atleast getting enough money after going through so much in college will give you some relief but no that is not gona happen here. Hopefully the struggle will end and finally i can peacefully do my own practice and have some peace of mind....that is much much needed now. Those 5 years of architecture and now after 4 years of graduation everything is just overwhelming experiences.....😐😑🥲 Thank you for sharing this experience
