Thank you!!

 

I bet! I know you'll be so excited to make your new home together though! 

 

I've just been horribly stressed and anxious since for no specific reason. Making appointments, scheduling in indecisive friends who I'll need to travel to see before I leave, will I remember everything I need, hopefully my parents won't miss me too much, will I miss living here more than expected? And all the 'boring' stuff that needs sorting out before leaving and doing that correctly. I was expecting to cry or scream with happiness once it arrived but I've just been in a state of panic! 😂

How are you feeling now you've had a bit longer for it all to sink in? Are things starting to calm down for you at all?

Hey! Thanks for checking in, I appreciate it! 

 

Still fairly anxious (though have had occasional anxiety bouts during stressful times most of my life so not surprised) & still doesn't feel 'real', & keep telling myself if I forget to do something important here in the UK before leaving I can always get family to take care of it. Mentally checking things off and don't think there's anything important my dad can't take care of if I completely forget somehow. And also telling myself not to panic! 

 

Have been exercising as much as possible, remembering to do deep breathing, and seeing friends - helps to keep busy and distracted. And my fiance has been making preparations in the apartment like adding me to the lease, putting things into storage to make room, etc which is exciting. 4 weeks to go!

I think that’s the important thing - you’re not leaving, never to return - and you’ll have family and friends here who can help with stuff.

 

I was starting to feel stressed about whether I’d be able to fit all my remaining belongings (I’ve been taking stuff over for the last 2 years) in 4 suitcases (2 on my next  visit, 2 when I move) - and I’ve realised it really doesn’t matter - I can leave whatever I want at my mum’s and pick stuff up when I come to visit - or my family will bring stuff out.
