I don’t mean to invalidate how you are feeling because missing people you care about is very valid. I would however like to note that this situation will be okay because 1) You are only 90 minutes away and can visit if you really want/need to, 2) being homesick means that you have a home and family that is safe for you, which is such a blessing, and 3) you are in a financial situation to be able to move into your own place. It will get easier with time—just power through the next few weeks.

It’ll get easier. Call them often. Find new things to do outside. Distract yourself and learn about this place until it feel more like him. *make* it into home

I just moved in to my own place ~60 min from home on 8/8 and was sick from anxiety for a good few days. I PROMISE it gets easier. Once your space starts feeling like your own, you’ll adapt quickly. Cry if you need to, but know that it does get easier! I’m living proof. If you need to talk to someone who’s dealing with something similar, I’m here for you!

FaceTime!! And learning about yourself and your own interests. Talk to yourself like a child, ask, what do u like/wanna do?

FaceTime and call them. I got homesick and calling them helps. I also started a vlog so when I’d do a task and I was missing them I’d record me and it somehow helped. Half the time the vid never got sent lol. And lastly lean on your support system calll a friend and plan out a few social events so you can make sure your still seeing ppl. It’s a good destruction and can help you feel more independent and Miss them a little less
