First night of being moved out for college really sucked. couldn’t stop thinking about my parents, my dogs, and my siblings. i’ve always been someone who’s gotten homesick, but i never imagined it would be this bad. hopefully as time passes things will get better, remember to call your parents, and if you’re close enough go give them a visit

7 oct 2022 - My heart is so heavy i can't even breathe , i am 1000 kms away from my home in my college . its my first day here don't have any friends and room mates , no one to talk to , different culture , different food . can't talk to my mom bcoz after 10 sec after hearing her voice i can't hold my tears in and i don't want her to realize that i am crying for home but i know she knows and she is sad and that makes me unable to breathe even while writing this i am full of tears , after 2 weeks its diwali and its the first time i am not home i just pray to god plz make me feel better. edit- 22 nov 2022 , everything is great now , made friends here , its just matter of time as time passes everything gets fine . SO anyone who is reading this and if falling homesick don't worry you are not going to feel the same way forever its just matter of time till you become comfortable with the new place

[@red-yu9un]

hii, i feel the same some days are better than others and ive made good friends but i miss home and my family a lot i feel like giving up and going back ive been crying all day and this comment section made me cry even more

[@harrisonxavier5280]

I moved states two years ago, and in that two years I've moved states again. I live in Australia, just for clarification. Homesickness is the worst thing in the world, it slowly eats away at you and you never truly get rid of it, and it can alienate places around you, trust me. What I found to work, is set a reverse bucket list. Don't have things that you want to do when you get home, have things you want to do in general, and do them. For example, binge watch all those TV shows that people have suggested (I suggest Breaking Bad or How I Met Your Mother, usually something with good emotional moments help) Also, don't bottle your feelings up. If you need to have a cry, have a cry. If you need to release your anger by playing a game, then do that. Don't let it just sit inside you and eat you up, because it will eventually change you as a person. And lastly, I've recently found that making a playlist and putting songs that make you feel good in it, and simply naming it "Homecoming" is a brilliant way of reminding yourself that one day soon, you'll be home. Here for anyone if they need it.

[@di_tu]

And it did change me as a person, unfortunately I realized too late. It’s been more than 3 years that I left home and constantly have to go back every time I can cause I really miss my family, friends and overall environment. It’s the most haunting decision I’ve made so far in my life. One thing I learned from it was to never make a decision based on temporary feelings. Btw loved how accurate your comment is

Hey. So, I’ve just moved to a new school, and it’s way different than my last one. I constantly want to cry and I’ve broken down a few times now, and I’m dreading the next school day, but I try my best to keep a positive demeanour. I’m still not over this bout of homesickness, but I’ll try my best, and you should too :)

@@user-xr7cv6rc2s homesickness is not just your no. 1 problem in your new school, but also a culture shock, but you can always fix those probs. Yeah just greet them with a nice and positive attitude then, I can guarantee you that you can make a lot of friends.

[@fringe3519]

The thing i realised during the times i have been outside my home is, that you feel homesickness because you have left your comfort zone(your home) and here outside you have to face many problems, many things you have to do by yourself and overall the feeling of homesickness is all about how comfortable we were at our homes (yes, there are many other feelings also but mainly this is the one which excites homesickness in us) The probable solution is that you sit down and write down every thing that us coming to your mind, means every memory, person, place incident and why are u feeling this way and whts the difference that is there in the present than at that time. Finally you write down logical reasons to not think about those all things like, one day everyone has to go out and it is better to enjoy the moment, talk to your family members, frnds and then accept the present. And your final solution should be that you will be returning home soon and as soon as you reach your goal, everything will be sorted out.

[@bigberb9332]

I recently moved out of my house in a diiferent city to go to uni. Its only been 2 weeks, but it already feels like forever. After the first week, I went home to visit my family and I couldnt help but lay on my bed and cry. I've never really left home before, so this feeling is very strange and new to me. I hope I eventually get over this and my time in uni gets a little better.

[@MichaelaJungheim]

I've been at college for three semesters straight. It's the most I've ever been away from my home and family. Earlier this semester, I finally realized that what I've been struggling with for years and years is social anxiety and depression. I made the mistake of letting the labels drag me down into the "pit of despair" and I don't even have the motivation to climb out. I'm not really close with any of my roommates and I've grown uncomfortable outside my own room. I only really feel comfortable on my bed or at my friend's apartment, but it's my bed 99% of the time. I guess I'm just venting, but yeah.

I used to be extremely shy and anxious in public, but now, since I've had to deal with it on my own, I pushed myself out of my comfort zone a lot (I'm still very introverted though) The only things I miss are the people from home (I talk to my mom almost every night) and homemade food.

I moved to Massachusetts from California in March of 2020 and I haven't been missing California until now. I'm finishing up my junior year of high-school and that could be a possible reason why I am feeling homesick. I lived in California for about 14 1/2 to almost 15 years (I was born there and lived there. When I left in the middle of lockdown, I didn't have the best chance to say a formal goodbye to all my friends and I don't think I'll ever see some of them again as one moved to Colorado Springs around the same time as I did and I forgot to get the contact information from the other one of my very best friends. The only thing I got to remind myself of them is a few Jr. High yearbooks and not even that's enough. Not only am I missing my friends but I am also missing my home/environment I have been used to forever, my school life, and even my girlfriend that I dated back then and sadly had to break up with her without a long moment between the two of us to cope with reality. It almost felt like a teleportation from one place to another. I'm an upper-classman in high school now and I wasn't expecting it to be this cruddy. High school is supposed to be a fun experience but not for me. It feels like absolute hell. If I was where I wanted to go with all my friends of boys and girls, I would be much MUCH happier compared to where I am now. If I was where I truly belong, I'd most likely still be dating the girl I had since 7th grade. Now it's much harder to pick that up where I am now. Now, regardless of all my rambling I want some advice on how to deal with this because I am really sad and depressed too. My physical self may be at a new place, but my heart and soul has never left and never will. I need some advice. Thanks so much and I appreciate it I hope you all can help me. 😔😭😢

I'm really lost now and even of i'll have the oportunity in half a year to come back for two weeks,i just can't help but fall in sadness and tears,,,,

[@nathanclarkson3137]

I moved from my parents 2 months ago and I’m currently living with my buddies and I thought it was going to be the best experience for me but sometimes I feel like I need to be around my parents 24/7 and yea it sucks not being able to do what I normally do but luckily I only live 10 mins away and I can see my parents when I need to😊

[@np-qy4hn]

i recently went back to my home country after 4 years and stayed there for a really long time, i finally got to see my family and had so so much fun with them? but unfortunately the trip had to end and im back in my home in england, i miss my granparents house so much and i just miss the daily routine that i had there, everyday my baby cousin would wake me up and we would go out together with my uncle and now that i’m back home i have to study every day for exams and i just miss the feeling of being in my home country with my family, i’ve spoken to my mum abt it and she said that she feels the same way, but what’s good is that i’m going back there in october and my baby cousin is also gonna come and visit us in the summer! but i just don’t want to go back to the life that i had before when i wasn’t in my home country, i wanna be with my family every day not my friends. i call my family every day tho and that makes me feel a bit better and watching videos like these help a lot. sorry for rhe long rant i just rlly needed to get this off my chest and for anyone who is suffering with homesickness rn trust me you’ll go through it the pain isn’t temporary and better days will come again 🤗🤗

You just saved my trip to Prague without my parents!

[@siminasimi5319]

I've been away from my home in Romania for 6 months i Guess and i miss my apartament, my local toy shop, my friends, my grandad, my biological dad(my parents divorced), my grandma. And i am going for the summer vacation back in Romania for only 10 days... But You helped me Josh to deal with Home sick.🙂

[@purplesoda3133]

During quarantine I’ve been feeling so homesick despite being at home everyday, so I think I just miss the way everything used to be. Despite this, I’m feeling queasy thinking about this camping trip I’ll be going on soon. I absolutely love getting out in the mountains, but the idea of being away from home-even though it doesn’t give me the comfort it once did- makes me panicky. And you know the weird thing is once I’ve been camping for a few days, the same thing happens when I come back home, I painfully miss the outdoors and hate the unnaturalness of the city. Man, I wish covid would just end, or had never happened in the first place. Hhh I just wanna see my friends, see someone I consider very dear to me. This has turned venty sorry lol, it helped tho

[@zellia]

I'm in a foster home a couple hours way from my hometown I miss. Everyone i know and love is there. I miss it all so much. I've cried everyday since I've been here.

[@mercunii]

I can't eat. I feel like I need to vomit but I don't really need to vomit. I miss home because I feel more free at home. I'm depressed. I don't even want to get up. All I want to do is lay down in the couch under the fan watching youtube. Last night at 12 I took a 14 minute nap. I stayed awake til late 4 am and I really miss dad.

I am 14 and I'm in a hostel for tennis. I feel homesick everyday and almost cry. I have been for a week. Thank u josh

[@sushitunaegg]

I still remember that when I was first time apart from my family during year 6 because I participated in a state level competition, I cried and I called them to told them I missed them, they also cried😭 Now I’m just a teenager and I’m going to university soon and I’m very afraid of homesick, I love my family a lot and I’m not ready to leave my home 😭

[@levitatehigh3723]

I’m gonna be away from home for 2 months now and I won’t be able to meet any of my friends or have a hobby while I’m gone. The homesickness started two days before I left while I was still home! Feels like I’m going to forget everything even though I do this every year.

[@darksoul7675]

I've been dealing with all of this ever since I moved to FL. Anything I have from home in N.Y makes me more sad. 😓😣

[@samsiwa8857]

I miss my mom and dad. It's the first time I'm staying away from home that too in a different country.

[@Ella-fz4sg]

Guys I’m leaving for camp tomorrow it’s only for 2 nights BUT IM SOO SCARED I do not like leaving my mom and Home Plz Plz Plzzzz wish meee luck I’m crying right now!

[@TheJoshSpeaks]

Hey Ella, I know its a scary idea but I think after a few days you're going to really enjoy camp. Yes, you will be homesick but if you go in with a positive mindset you'll have a good time. Good luck!

[@lyssa16.]

I’m going away for a while week and I’m scared outta my mind. I’m crying too and I haven’t even left yet

[@limaechonumismatics]

I’m leaving for summer camp in a week. It is a week long and I was super homesick last year so I’m trying to prepare more.

[@pivotp0int530]

I’m literally in a camp for 3 weeks and 3 867 miles away from my family and home and I’m already homesick although it’s my 2nd day

[@borisjohnson32]

How’s all the camps going? My parents had to drop me off at my godparents which I’d never properly been to before for 3 nights and I was terrified. I cried until the second day, when I listened to this song which I recommend. „Livin‘ on a prayer“ I think a lot of People will know this song but the lyrics meant so much to me: „Oh, we’re half way there“ - I was half way through the stay and I’d change the lyrics to „oh we’re three quarters way there“ just to make me feel better- haha... „Oh we’re living on a prayer“ - I was praying that I’d be alright. So basically that sums up my stay and I eventually got over it, and I’m proud... good luck to all those who feel terrified!❤️

[@billtard]

So, every couple of weekends I go to my uncles, and every time I return home I feel unbearably homesick, so this really helped, thanks!

[@np-qy4hn]

i literallt have the same situation, however my uncle lives in a different country so saying goodbye is rlly hard. but you’ll get through this!

[@SleepyAvak]

Ive only been gone from home for 12 hours since my flight and im feeling sad since i'll probably never see my friends again.

[@sagarika7426]

Thankyou so much. I have my first year MBBS exam and I am going to leave my home soon just by the thought of it m getting overwhelmed a lot. A lot of stress and this homesick feeling is so tiring.hoping i will surely do best in my exams also m going to meet my lil brother soon🤍

[@sawalqa4522]

I’ve been in Canada for 5 months and I do miss my family back home I’m in a really tight situation whether I should continue my studies here due to the degree being better or to go back home and start uni from scratch. Even though I have the opportunity to do either, I feel very indecisive because either way there are some flaws and advantages to both sides. Afraid of the disappointment when going back and afraid staying here may continue to diminish my mental state. I really don’t know what to do and I’m losing myself.

[@sawalqa4522]

If anyone can really take the time to help me out that would be great

How are you feeling now...

[@ayshayshu2097]

I feel terrible now being away from home, homesickness is real. I’ve never been feeling like this, but after lockdown living close with family it’s very lonely to be alone. I miss my home, my city , my parents everything. Sorry for the rant

[@saturn___]

i hate myself. this just now happened this month. i get so homesick just being at my friends house. i want it to stop. i feel like such a baby. i’m too scared to ever say i don’t want a sleepover or i don’t want to be there. i miss my mom.

[@sadie_rblxsadie_randomcont4948]

I had the same thing omg, just try to start off having sleepovers with families you know and trust, then soon enough you’ll get the hang of the cycle…

[@saturn___]

@@sadie_rblxsadie_randomcont4948 thanks, it’s weird though. like something traumatic happened and caused me to not be able to have sleepovers somehow, i could do it and be just fine last year

[@JaveriaShahid-DVME-]

It's been just 3 days at my new place, university hostel, and I literally cry everyday many a times. Nothing soothes me. I miss my parents the most. Ive to stay 4 years here, this thought is killing me inside. It has left me nowhere. I want to see my parents, brother and sister right infront of me, all the time but they aren't here. A mere talk to them doesnt comforts my heart. I feel as if Im drowning away in the ocean of darkness and despair with the passage of each moment. I never commented on any public post and now Ive commented here. I feel like Im losing myself, my personality, my thoughts....

[@kielanino471]

How are you now buddy??

[@Thisbrickwall]

This was an awesome video. Thank you so much. We got this ,guys. Be strong. Our families love us and they would want us to be happy and enjoy the moment. Bless you for posting this helpful video, you have a good, pure heart and it shows ❤️

[@saujanyapoudel7378]

I live at my Aunt's place studying high school.. I feel trapped having to stay in this house with narrow rooms and follow the same college schedule throughout the week and meet people I dislike. Can't wait for the remaining 3 months to pass after which I will give my finals and can finally return home forever with all of my stuffs. It's strange how despite having my aunt, uncle and siblings around, It don't feel quite like a home with second family. Same people I thought were familiar and close don't actually give me the 'family' vibe.

[@yournofun8922]

In a couple days I’m gonna go to a summer camp for 4 days it’s a short period of time but at the same time it’s gonna be the longest and most painful 4 days of my life last time I went i cried a lot and I had a panic attack each day and threw up due to stress and anxiety

[@eziserceminecraft1670]

As an 11 year old leaving the country ive lived in for my whole life it makes me feel like i will never go back again since im the other side of the world (philipines to canada) I also have problems with change. I was excited to go somewhere new, but my mindset was i was only going to be there temporarily but i can only go back once a year and its not guaranteed, and i also cant really adapt to change that well like that time i had to go to my moms apartment for a few months and it took me a week to get over the home sickness, im not even there yet and im just realizing that im leaving some of the people i love and i just cry every time i think about it.

[@plant.hacks.4.ur.environment]

I’m at my last semester of college and I’ve done all my 4 years abroad in 2 different countries. However I’ve found myself still missing my pet, my home, my garden, everything. The first couple years I was alright and never had homesickness issues. But recently I have. And it’s taking a toll on my mental health. I have 1-2 friends and we haven’t been able to talk. I feel very alone and the closest family never is in another country 2 hours away. I don’t know what I should do. Any suggestions?!??!

[@Sub2me112]

My family just emigrated yesterday. We’ve moved from a 3rd world country to a 1st world country. I’ve known this was going to happen for two years, so I didn’t cry on the day we left (I was “mentally prepared”). Now that we’ve reached the place we’re going to stay for a few days, I’ve woken up the following morning in tears from homesickness, and knowing the fact that we’re never ever going home. I dreamt of my home last night. I’ve lost all our pets, our house, my friends and my familiarity. So I guess I’m here now. I can’t go back. But thanks for the tip in the above clip. 🙏

I went to Thailand 🇹🇭 in 2019 for 13 days and by day 3 I began feeling super weird and missing my family. Felt so helpless being so far away if anything were to arise..I now know this was called being HOMESICK..I know it sounds funny but some one simply gave me hug and said “you’re okay, you’re just going through homesickness” made everything feel so much better better...anyways, just thought I’d share.

[@skull4066]

Every time I go to my friends I always end up going home and then they always make fun of me for it but.. When I go to camp this year your not allowed your phone and thats the only this that can really calm me down... Plus everyone always falls asleep before me so then I'm alone crying by myself for almost half the night.

[@mercunii]

I thought I was homesick whenever I went to school because by lunch time I would always want to go home but now I really feel homesick most of the thing mentioned in this video happen to me
