Being so upset on my last day in my job

I am dreading tomorrow, my last day in my job that I have been in for 21 years (customer facing) I am sitting here terrified at the thought of going in tomorrow and saying goodbye, think I'll end up sobbing 😢, I've got a new full time job which was fab and exciting but now it's D day I'm regretting it. I'm sure I'll love my new job but just really worried that people will think I'm mad for crying (loads of my customers are coming in to see me tomorrow) I just don't want them thinking I'm being silly for crying, they really mean so much to me but I don't think they realise that. Also the thought of saying goodbye to my 2 colleagues, 1 of which doesn't really have anyone, I do everything for her, from booking holidays to sorting out her problems, I'm feeling really guilty about leaving her, and have told her to call me whenever she needs me but she's not the type of person to do that. Sorry for the long post but just feel so lost.

No-one will think you silly for crying, thru will understand the emotion and appreciate how much it meant to you - it is far nicer to have someone genuinely feeling emotional about leaving than someone who doesn't even look over their shoulder - it shows that the times you shared as colleagues actually meant something.

You sound lovely 💐

Nobody will judge you for crying. Quite the opposite!

Thank you, I know my colleagues will know but I'm worried about my customers, I'm a crier, and I'm worried that if I start I won't stop, don't want them to think I'm a drama Queen, I'm anything but, I just don't know if they realise what they all mean to me (I work in a small village library) and I also don't think it helps that it's all been so quick, so no time to really process the fact that I'm actually moving on.
