I'm leaving home in a few days to go to school, and I think it's depressing people. I'm restless and edgy, can't find anything to do and can't stand being around people. My brother suddenly lost all will to do anything a few hours ago and has been crying, though we don't know why. My mom's had a super short fuse, been emotionally high-strung, and cried more often than usual. My dad... I donno. He's moving too, so I dunno if it affects him. He's bitchier, for sure, but I have no idea why.

I guess it's pretty self-centered to think this could be because I'm leaving, but my mom has said stuff about her own feelings, separation anxiety but being unwilling to tell me because she wants me to do well without worrying, and my bro... Has never been like this before. He reminds me of me. Not finding anything to hold his attention, almost flipping out from the frustration of incureable boredom. It could be a teenage thing, could be because of other things, could be from anything. I don't know. Most of his friends moved away over the summer, and he's really close to dad, so dad moving 2000km away sucks balls for him. I think that part hurts mom too, because she knows that she can't do the same kind of things for my brother as my dad can, and because he's ditching. dad's always been like this, but just because she's used to it, doesn't mean she's happy about it.

I feel like an ass about it all. I'm leaving because I'm not happy with my shithole of a school in Whitehole. It's super selfish. I should just stay here with my people, because I know I'm hurting them. =/ I'm probably hurting myself too, but I'm too apathetic to admit to that right now. I wonder if this'll be like Germany, where I didn't really miss the people back home at all, and then when I left Germany, people cried, acted all around distressed... And I didn't really care. And when I was back in Canada, I didn't miss the people I spent three months with, didn't even really think about them. I'm a cold bitch and really should care more. XD;;

/sigh

I've been avoiding people, both irl and online. =/ Being around almost everyone is draining right now, and I have no idea why. Only Seguchi is really enjoyable to talk to. She's great. Love her.

I think I'll head to bed, or something. Tomorrow I'll make an effort to spend time with people that I don't want to see, because I gotta say goodbye.

[/end whining]

Actually it's a psychological thing- you're pushing people away to make the move easier. When everyone is upset or fighting it's easier to move on to be on your own at school.

So yeah, it's you leaving, but you also can't blame yourself. Is it better for you to go away or to stay? It's not selfish if it's really better for you to leave.

I doubt that that helps. But think of what a great opportunity going away to school will be.

It does help. I have little to no idea about psychological stuff, so it hardly occurred to me. Now that you said it, though, it does make sense. Is it an unconcious thing, so you don't even realize you're doing it?

Yuss. ^^ I'm going to have a challenge in school. It's going to be awesome and new. <3

How've you been? I haven't really been checking my flist at all so I don't know what any of my friends have been doing. =/

Yeah, I meant to say it's unconscious.

I've finished graduate school and am now back at home looking for work. You think it's tough leaving, wait until you've been away for six years and have to come back. =P My parents seem to oscillate between expecting nothing of me and then reminding me of what I need to do and should do. It's rather irritating. There's no incentive to get a job when they're paying for they car they got me and haven't asked anything of me.

I've been a bit down lately over all, but I'm okay. Thanks. :)

what I wanted to say was... *sends hug* The thing with your parents seems both odd and rather parent-like. Hope it works out, though. x]

No worries- people get busy and have different priorities at different times. Especially if you're just starting a new school. :)
