The period after graduation can be really difficult, filled with emotions like grief, anxiety, worry about the future, loneliness and nostalgia as we leave the structure and comfort of college and university for the big, confusing real world. In today's episode we break down the psychology of the post-graduation blues, including:

What defines this experience
How long does it last?
The loss of friends as well as security and stability
What triggers our unease
How we can embrace the fear and uncertainty
Setting realistic goals for our first year post graduation
