Keep your social support intact.

Starting an internship is a major life change. It's the beginning of a shift from being a student, to being an employee. Even if you intern at the same school where you completed your undergrad work, and especially if you intern in a new place, having social support is important. Being a dietetic intern is hard work, and it's important to temper that hard work with fun and social activities too. So keep in contact with your undergraduate colleagues, your teachers, your mentors, and the people you volunteered with. Call or e-mail them and let them know how you're doing. Your friends and family will be happy to hear how you are doing, and it'll help give you a break and some peace of mind as you adjust to being an intern.
