Everyone gets homesick at some point. Your bed, family, food, there is a lot to miss. It’s completely understandable that you miss home.
The cure for such an illness?
Time.
Also maybe a nap, but mainly time. You’ll adjust to living out of home and slowly start to miss home less and less.
However, there are a few things that will not help in anyway,shape or form. Imagine having the flu and then getting sneezed on. Here are some things to avoid that will prolong your cure.
- Going home every weekend. Don’t do this. Not only will you miss out on making memories at school but you’ll only miss home more.
- Calling home every 15 minutes. Once or twice a day is fine but to truly cure homesickness, you need to learn to stand on your own.
- Constantly talking about high school or home memories. The more you talk about it, the more you’ll miss it.
It’s okay to miss home and everything that goes along with it. But, don’t let being homesick stop you from enjoying your college life.
