Hi, I’ve posted here once before but I read the posts, I’m a bit of a lurker, sorry
I posted last year about my DD going to uni and feeling so lost, I managed after a few months to get my head around it
snd have been fine. The course she’s on she doesn’t get much time off so I try and see her when I can, I went down last weekend and she’s was great, living her best life, I was so proud even though I miss her. The next day I get a call and she’s upset because of a boy, I felt so helpless and I know I have to let her work through this, like we all have to.
I lost my mum when DD was 7 the same time my marriage broke down, I bought her up on my own so we are super close, i always have worried about leaving her even now still that’s she’s a grown up and at uni. I remarried a couple of years ago and my DH and DD have the most amazing relationships, I feel blessed but I guess I’m now feeling a bit lost and redundant. I’m due to go away with a friend for 3 night abroad this weekend and I can’t stop crying and am anxious about going away leaving them both. I worry about something happening to me and leaving them both. As I write this I can see how ridiculous it is, she’s a grown up at nearly 20, however just putting it out there is almost a bit of a help to me. Most the time I’m fine and I’ve been away already this year and was fine but for some reason this time it’s floored me with worry and anxiety.
