Not sure if I can keep doing this

I’m currently a pre-engineering student renting in Sfax, and honestly I’m at a really low point right now.

I’ve been thinking about repeating the preparatory year and trying to get into a better place. I just don’t feel like I fit in with my current environment. Most people around me seem comfortable doing things the classic way, while I want to be around more ambitious people who think bigger, build things, and explore more opportunities.

The problem is I don’t even feel motivated to connect or talk with the people around me anymore. I’m not from Sfax, I barely know anyone here, and I feel like I’m slowly falling into a pretty bad depression. Being alone most of the time is making everything worse, and I honestly don’t know how much longer I can handle this.

I also don’t even know if it’s still possible at this point to go back and repeat the preparatory year. If anyone knows how that works in Tunisia, especially this late, please tell me.

Would you repeat and try again, or is “just continue and focus on yourself” quasi-impossible when you’re already experiencing a mental breakdown?
