I could have written this (except probably not so articulately). I felt just like this for the first few weeks and I know what a miserable feeling it is. Its hard to enjoy yourself even with the enjoyable activities because you just keep second guessing everything.

My temporary big gave me some good advice - she said to put a decision date on the calendar and to not think about making a decision until that date. Every day until that day I was supposed to participate in everything that I could and just enjoy myself without worrying about what I should do. When the date that we picked as decision day rolled around there was NO WAY I was going to drop! She became my Big and I can't imagine now how hard those two weeks were for her too.

My mom gave me good advice too - she said "Just meet one friend. Just one that's all you need". That helped too because I didn't feel like I had to make friends with everyone.

Hang in there and try to not overthink it all.
