    up until today i was so excited about going back to school (about 4 hours from home). now all the sudden i am am emotional basketcase and i can't stop crying! i'm pretty much completely packed so i don't have that to stress about, i just HATE goodbyes, especially with my parents. i am dreading leaving when i think i really should be excited to go back. ugh, i can't stop crying and i have a terrible headache now. i know that i'll be fine away from home because i did it last year, i think it's just initially moving back and having to see my parents leave. anybody have college stories? thanks for listening to me vent! i hope i feel better in the morning[img]smileys/smilies_12.gif[/img]

    Hey there-


    For me, the anxiety about leaving home didn't really hit until my mom drove off, and I was in residence with a bunch of people I didn't know in an ugly room and with a bed that had a soiled mattress, lol. In my frist year, my dad didnt come up for the trip (he is a big sulk and wouldn't be able to deal with it- and hates getting emotional in public), so mom drove me down and got me settled in. When she left, I was just kinda standing around going "soo.....now what?"- it was completely bizarre. I didn't know anyone, and my roomate had not yet arrived. However, of course everything ended up fine in the end....after all, its over 6 years later, and I am STILL in Uni!


    I say that you are worried now, but once you are there you will probably be just fine. After last year, you know what to expect, and you have friends that I know you are anxious to see. Allow yourself to feel a bit sad now- but once you are there, just keep busy and I'm sure you will be fine.

    thanks for replying amber :-) i feel better tonight. still sad, i know it'll be worse tomorrow night when i have to say goodbye to everyone. i worry too much about something happeningto my family while i'm four hours awayand i think that's why i get so sad. once i'm settled in on saturday and once i know my parents are home safe after they drop me off, i'll be okay. i'll just have to keep myself occupied. thanks again!
