Help for the homesick?

Aug 19, 2009 20:25

After I get all settled in tomorrow, if I am left alone for more than five minutes I will probably start bawling from loneliness. I have terrible separation anxiety. D:

Hey flist, any tips for beating homesickness?

When I moved here a year and a half ago, I spent a lot of time wandering around my new neighborhood/city, finding new places to incorporate into my routine. That helped, because I had prepared myself for missing people (not that I didn't cry for a year about how much I missed them), but I didn't realize how much I'd miss my places I was used to going to.

That and just throwing myself into the flow of things here... The people, a new job, all of that stuff. I also found myself listening to a lot of music and clinging to my LJ friends. LJ friends were the one constant between here and my old home.

I don't know if any of that will help, but that's what I did.

Thank you for your comment, that does help. I think I just need to keep busy... and I'll always have lj in my down time. :)
