So I’m moving an hour and a half away from home and getting a job 4 days a week from May to September… I’ve been living at home for 6 months now, I was working but I haves to quit, I couldn’t handle it. I’m worried I’m not going to be able to handle such a big change and that I won’t be able to handle working that much… I’m so scared that I’m considering not doing it and just staying here for the summer. But I really want to move to this other town where I’ll be able to meet more like minded people… what should I do? Any advice??

Do you see a therapist? They can help you come up with coping skills. And you always have this community to vent to. Good luck

You could think positive and just do it if it doesn’t work out then you can go home

If a part of u feels like u can do it I think its worth a try. Congrats on the job! N I agree with @SunGirl to ask a therapist for coping skills.

Its difficult. I had the same problem last summer. Offered a job far away in my field. Anxiety caused me to back out. Now I wish I would have taken it, and just quit, if it was too much.

You’ll never know until you try it.
I wouldn’t consider it a fail if it doesn’t work out and you have to move back home.
It would just mean you weren’t ready to be out on your own- that’s all.
