Most students experience some degree of emotional adjustment and "culture shock" when they arrive in their host country, no matter what their previous travel experience, psychological disposition, maturity, or knowledge of the host country may be. A period of mild disappointment or depression is a normal part of the study abroad experience and one that passes quickly for most students. Additionally, upon return home from their foreign travel experience, some students may experience "" and should consult with 色情视频 Counseling and Psychological Services.

Counseling

If your period of adjustment lingers and you feel you would benefit from counseling while abroad, you can talk with an 色情视频 therapist by phone. Link to the Counseling and Psychological Services (C&PS) website for more information.  You can also take an online assessment if you have concerns about anxiety, depression, stress, or other issues.

Homesick while abroad?

Avoid sleeping too many hours or cocooning in your room too much. Withdrawing will make your transition that much tougher. The sooner you get involved and establish your routine, the sooner you鈥檒l begin to feel comfortable in your new envirronment.

It helps to stay in touch. Learn about communicating with family and friends while you鈥檙e abroad via WhatsApp, Skype, Google Talk, Viber and by phone.

Medications

Important: If you are on psychoactive medication such as anti-depressants, be aware that some countries prohibit you from taking them with you (Japan, for instance).  You should speak with your primary physician about the medication you are currently prescribed and the implications in studying abroad and possibly in specific destinations.

As you are planning to study abroad, it鈥檚 important to consider whether you will need to take with you any prescriptions or other medications. Also, keep in mind that consequences and penalties regarding alcohol and non-prescription drug use may differ in foreign countries.

Here are some guidelines to consider:

• If you take certain medications, check to make sure that the country you plan to visit allows them.
• Pack enough to last your entire trip, including some extra in case you spend more time abroad than originally planned.
• Carry all medications in their original labeled containers. Pack them in your carry-on baggage, because checked baggage can sometimes arrive late or get lost.
• Get a letter from your doctor in case you are questioned about your carry-on medications. Some countries have restrictions on bringing medications, prescription or otherwise, into the country without proper authorization.
• Ask your doctor or pharmacist for the generic equivalent name of all of your medications, in case you need to buy additional medications while abroad.

Alchohol & Non-Prescription Drugs

While in a foreign country, you are subject to its local laws, even if you are a U.S. Citizen. It is very important to know what's legal and what's not. Simply drinking in public may be considered a criminal activity by local authorities, and this can carry unknown penalties.

If you break local laws while abroad, your U.S. passport will not help you to avoid arrest or prosecution, and the U.S. Embassy cannot get you out of jail.
