Welcome to the Youthspace Forum, thisisblue.
Your best friend moving away sounds as though it’s really turning your world upside down and leaving you feeling really nervous about the future.
You mentioned feeling as though your problems are insignificant and I want you to know that it doesn’t seem that way to me at all! Having someone in our lives who cares about us, and is there for us, strikes me as one of the most important things in life. I can imagine how having that person move away would be absolutely devastating and take a while to get used to.
Correct me if I am way off base here, but it seems like feeling anxious about things is common for you? I imagine that would be draining and make doing things, like going out and making new friends, pretty challenging for you. I am not sure if is something you’d be interested in. It has some useful tips about coping with anxious feelings. No pressure to check it out, if it doesn’t fit for you, I just thought I’d offer it as a possibility :).
It’s so hard feeling lonely and like there’s no one to turn to! I know it is not quite the same thing, but please know we’re always here for you on the forum or on our chat service (6pm -12am PST) if you need someone to talk to.
Stay in touch,
Youthspace.
