At least I thought I was emotionally spent and pretty much numb. My friend who I have know for 6 months had to move back home with her mom because she is a minor (17) and so she has to listen to her. She moved about 2 hours away I think. And she will be gone for at least a month. We hung out every day pretty much, so this is kind of a change for me...I'm trying to figure out how to deal. I thought I was numb but all I can feel is anxiety. What if she doesn't come back until she is 18 (3 months)...How am I supposed to make it that long without someone here with me who truly understands me...It's a lot of anxiety, and a whole bunch of other mixed emotions. And they don't slow down. I'm trying to control them, but I feel like I'm not doing such a good job at it. I used to have softball, but we lost our regional game last night, so our season is done. And she left the next day right after that...So I feel like I have nothing right now...Thanks for listening...I guess I just needed to get all my thoughts out...

(((JDA))),

I am sorry to hear about your friend. Cant the two of you plan some sleep over stays that last a couple of days? Maybe you both can share in hosting the sleep overs? Two hours away is not that far.

Also maybe the two of you could plan a summer activity that is in the middle of where you both live so you could spend time at a camp all day or something like that?
You and your friend have to learn to be creative about being able to spend time together thats all. Three months will go by faster if the two of you plan ways you can spend time with each other.

Hey, I'm sorry about your friend too but open eyes is right.. Maybe you can plan something sometime, or skype call eachother, or do something you both enjoy.. In the meantime you might want to take up some hobbies to keep yourself busy, maybe learn to play an instrument so you can teach her later too!

I will hopefully see her again in about a month...I saw her for the banquet for softball yesterday. Then she had to go home. I'm doing a little better with that, but it's hard because she is going through a lot of things right now, and I can't even be there. But we're both still going I guess. Thank you for the posts. I hope you are well.

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. the best thing to do is keep busy and definitely keep in touch as much as possible. things always get better, but you have to go through hell and back before it does...at least that's how my life has been going. whatever the case, keep positive and keep your head up!
