  1. -feeling overwhelmed

    -culture shock

    -unfamiliar environment

    -feeling burnt out from school

    -pressure to succeed from family/and or society

    -feeling the need to be perfect

    -feeling lost in "the real world"

    -uncertainty about the future

    -financial troubles

    -feeling insignificant

    -loss of self-confidence

    -competition

    -failure to acclimate to a new social environment

    -loss of friends/mentors in previous school environments

    -homesickness

    -peer pressure

    -failed relationships

    -alcohol and drug experimentation and/or abuse

    any of these can lead to depression, eating disorders, alcoholism, etc.  but total psychosis (i.e. schizophrenia) usually requires a genetic predisposition to the condition.


  2. 1) Over-Confidence.

    2) Egomania.

    3) Sociopathy.

    4) Obssessiveness (i've got the paper, now i'm going to do what i intended to).

    5) Resentment.

    Those are a few, but the ones i feel are most important.

  3. Nice command.

    It'd be nice to know what a few of the hallucinations are.  It's going to be impossible to know the cause without knowing what anomalies are being experienced.
