This is it. In 45 minutes I'm moving away from home to go off to university. I'm really anxious and really scared and I've got separation anxiety. Feeling a bit sad and I feel very small in this big world we live in. I hope all goes well.

Over and out.

Separation anxiety is totally normal - this is a big life adjustment for you and you know what? You'll feel a bit weird while you adjust and then it will go away! You have a lot of new things to look forward to, so focus on whatever good things you can see in your future :) And always remember to check in here if you're feeling blue!

I'm envious. I'd love to strike out for greener pastures and get off this choke chain people have me on.

Anyway, I'm sure you'll do fine. Getting out of the nest is rough, but everyone knows you're better off spreading your wings. And I'm sure if you need your parents or friends their a phone call away. Or a skype call or text message or whatever people are doing now.

Best of luck to you, sounds like exciting times.

Thanks. I'm in my "new city" now and everything feels very new (so new I'm in fact having a headache right now). I'm very nervous about going off to university and meet people (I'm really bad at meeting new people) but I hope everything will be okay. At least I like learning things!
