Being away from home can certainly be a challenging experience. Moving to a new place for education can come with many changes. Adjusting to these unfamiliar circumstances can often take time. I see that you've been missing your own room very much. It can be helpful to make small changes in the room you live in at present which can help gain a sense of belongingness. It may not feel the same, however this can be the first step in the process of acceptance. You can also connect with a counselor who can assist you further in this process of adjusting. They can help you address any underlying hindrances that you may be experiencing, and help you understand how to navigate through these difficult feelings. I hope this helps.

I understand that transitioning to a new place can be challenging, especially when it doesn't feel as organized and comfortable as your home. It's completely normal to miss the familiarity and comfort of your previous environment. To make this adjustment smoother, try personalizing your new space with items that bring you comfort. Additionally, give yourself time to adapt and explore the positive aspects of your new surroundings. If these feelings persist and become overwhelming, talking to someone about your concerns, like a friend or counselor, might provide helpful insights and support.
