Thanks so much Anita. Since I posted I texted with my aunt and briefly explained that I was worried about adjusting and of course she said it’s just like when you went away to college, I came to enjoy my time there and she said the same thing will happen with my new situation. I then talked to my mom and told her what my aunt said. I think I’m not giving myself time to adjust to something new I haven’t even been here long. I think I need to give myself time to adjust. I’m actually excited about my internship, the other things is what I was/am worried about as I said above. Furthermore, I actually somehow ended up talking with my roommate, who I officially met about 3 weeks ago and moved in Thursday as a room share( in her living room) I kind of went on about some of the things I was feeling and stuff and she listened and reassured me I’ll be fine, just need to adjust and that everything else(making friends, romantic stuff) will come. I also just Skyped my mom and that’s was great. I feel so much better than when I posted the message. A little leery of the “sadness and worry” feeling coming back. To answer your question dealing with homesickness, I kind of just got over it I feel like. But, I think God willing I will be ok. I’m fairly certain I’ll enjoy my internship and the other things will come. I also like how you said little by little I need to come out my comfort zone. My time where I’m at may be temporary and I’ll return home( at least to the area where my family lives) and I just need little growth in the temporary time I may have not huge leaps and bounds. Thanks again.
