everyone here just said exactly what im feeling. i had such high hopes for university, thought it would be so much fun all the time, but now that ive been here for almost 3 months, i just miss my family so much and wish i was closer. i have to take a 2 hour plane ride to get home so its not an option to just go home for the weekend. i would consider transferring closer to home but i dont want to go through the whole new university meeting new people thing again, so im really hoping that by the end of first year i will love it here. lets alll cross our fingers for each other, and pray it gets better! |

I am transferring to a school near home simply because thats what will make me happy and make my heart sing again. Being close to my family is very important to me. An education is what you make of it, if you want to learn you will no matter where you go. I feel like i did the right thing. :) now i am enjoying my last weeks here and excitedly awaiting the day i get to move back! YAY! |

I am a very shy and introverted person. I just started college and moved into the dorm last week. I have trouble making friends, it is very hard for me to meet people. I am very sad, alone, and ashame to be alone. I missed my mom and my cat Tabby. I cried myself to sleep every night. Does college experience ever get better? |

I've been having a really hard time too. And I think it would be a lot less hard if I could visit my family every now and then, but there is no chance of that, we're about a 5 day drive apart. I can't even go home for thanksgiving. It's just so hard, and it's not getting better. I just feel so alone... |

i never thought id miss my family this much. i used to spend long nights with my friends and not think of my family at all but now that im so far away. alone, i miss them so much. i have 5 brothers and i used to do everything with them. i miss them so much that just writing about them right now is making me tear up. and my parents were always there to make dinner, yell, love, care about me, but now they're not with me anymore. i miss the closeness that my family and i had. i honestly am thinking about moving back home or transferring to a college closer to home. but at the same time i dont want to let them down, so i really dont know what to do. i miss them so much that i cry every night before i go to sleep in my dorm room. |

Oh man. I go through this everyday. I'm not even all that far. Just six or seven hours by car. Haha, but i end up crying most of the time. I know exactly what you guys are talking about. I seriously miss my family, and am considering transferring. I promised myself and my mom that I would stick it out for a year. I feel like a jerk too, because I mainly just talk to the few people that I know here about being homesick. Haha, at times, I am okay. But then it hits me and I can't help it... I suppose getting the feelings out are good though... We'll see how my year goes! |

HEY everyone , Homesickness is just a temp thing its a minor thought. this uaually happens when you are alone or Right before u go to bed. Try talking to your family. maybe set up a web cam. Have things sent from home,
