Honestly, resisting peer pressure may be a skill you need to build. It may be embarrassing or uncomfortable the first couple of times. But it will get easier.

I think that as soon as your professor tells you to “discuss this with the person sitting next to you” or assigns a group activity/project, you should use that as an excuse to talk to them. Maybe start off complaint about how hard the material is and then ask if they want to go to the library. That way, if you’re too nervous to ask outright, you can still do so.

Social environments have a huge impact on mental health because the people, spaces, and communities we interact with shape how we feel, think, and behave. Supportive environments, where you feel accepted, respected, and understood, can boost your confidence and morale. Toxic environments can decrease your confidence and provoke anxiety. Even small things, like the tone of conversations, can influence emotional well-being. Surrounding yourself with positive, empathetic people is key.
