Feeling Homesick
How do you adult ladies deal with homesickness after moving far from home? I moved almost 10 hours away from my hometown where I've lived all my life for a job and I've been here almost a year and I still miss home. I have my dad and his side of the family up here with me, but my mom, sister, and other relatives still live in my hometown. I know there's Facebook and phone calls, but it's still not the same. What makes it worse is that my sister is in rehab for an eating disorder and my mom is all alone and it makes me feel kinda guilty for choosing to leave. I really only left because I now live in a much bigger city with better opportunities and I wanted to live closer to my dad, but I always feel anxious and emotional whenever I visit home (which happens whenever it's possible/affordable). I know I made the right choice for me, but I can't shake the feeling of being homesick. I have some friends, but we're all grown ups with jobs so it's not like we can all hangout whenever we want. Any tips or words that helped you deal with homesickness or moving away from home? Thanks!
