I'm about to start my third week of college. The first two weeks I was perfectly happy after crying the night before move in day. I hung out with people and was fine being away from home. But then I visited home for Labor Day weekend thinking I would be fine, but now I feel super depressed - like to the point where I just want to cry my eyes out. I only live a half hour away, so i could see them any weekend i wanted, but I guess it just hit me today that I will never be able to live with my parents the same way as before. My parents and I are very close, and I think it just feels weird not having anyone around to hug your or tell you that they love you, and it feels weird being around a bunch of people who will never love you as much as your family - I think that's what really bothers me too. I kinda miss laying in my old bed and having all of my old and familiar things and surroundings around. I even have been thinking about moving in with my parents again after graduating and finding a job close to them, which may affect my final major choice. I also miss my dog. I won't be able to see her for another month - I've never been away from her that long, and even consider not leaving home or getting another dog until she is gone. Does anybody have any advice or words of comfort, or has been thought what I'm feeling. I'm just so confused and upset right now.
