If I may make a suggestion for some action...
(I'll leave the encouraging words to everyone else who's posted here, although I do agree with the sentiments.)
1. Request admissions applications from two other colleges you would prefer to attend next year. Do it THIS weekend (read: not when your time would be better spent studying come-around trivia or cramming for that awful plebe Chem class). Then, when it gets bad and you think you want to quit Annapolis, pull out an application and start working on it. When you force your mind to focus on that essay question, "Why do you feel [Our University] is the place for you?" you'll: (a) have a daydream to take you out of Bancroft Hall; (b) force yourself to really address your goals in life; and (c) be focusing your negative energy on something productive should you actually decide to leave.
(I kept that application in my top desk drawer and *did* pull it out quite frequently -- Plebe AND Youngster year. For me, the problem was that I kept coming up with a transfer essay that started, "I want to deal death from the sky to f*ckers taking cheap shots at my brothers in arms, and to take the fight to the enemy before they have another chance to bring it to us." I never did finish that transfer app. But who knows, maybe you'll follow through with it -- at least it won't be wasted time.)
