Im home sick. - Help.com

if you are not able to travel to see your loved ones (due to financial or work/school obligations),let them know how you feel via email, phone, written letters, etc. your answer might come from you opening up to them and sharing your feelings, if you have not already. if you have, please share what happened…

if you don’t try, then you won’t know. you don’t know that it would make them sad. they might have encouraging words for you that will help you get through this period. they might have advice that you have not considered. you will know know unless you try. family will not let you down (at least it sounds like they won’t if you are already communicating with them daily, they might already have an idea of your troubles).
if i had shared my troubles with my family (i mean being open and honest with them) when i was in college, i believe i would be in a different place today. i didn’t share my fears with my family and as a result, i suffered and struggled on my own because i did not want to hurt or let my family down.

think about your past trials and tribulations that you thought (at the time) that you would not make it though….and you did…
there are things that i went through in the past and at that time i thought, “i can’t make it”, “this is too hard”, “it’s more than i can bare” and here i am still standing…and there are things that i am going through today that i feel the exact same way about…but i think back on my past, and how i made it through (i don’t know what it was that got me through but i made it through those dark, lonely and sad days.
