College presents many challenges to young adults, but nobody talks about the struggles of the first few nights sleeping outside your childhood bedrooms. While we all had sleepovers and trips with friends and school, that is not the same as completely moving out of our home and regularly sleeping in a different bed, and that is not an easy experience for young people.
On my first night in my dorm room, the first thing I noticed was how loud the street outside was, mainly because of all the cars driving by and people loudly talking. I was so not used to it that I could barely sleep all night, and it took me a few nights after that to finally block out the noise so I could sleep.
Adding roommates to this whole experience, like what OP (original poster) is dealing with in this Reddit story, must be terrible, especially when they refuse to accommodate any of your needs. Did OP deal with it in the most healthy and mature way? Probably not, the question is, can anyone blame her?
