Call home or just go out. Find something new and fun to fill your time with.

I suggest you talk to your parents.
If you are that aprehensive then maybe your not ready.
If they insist on you going there is a "trick"
Some camps will let you call home every nigh tfrom a cell phone so you can have your "nightly prayers" with your family, its a religeous thing.
You could call ahead and see if tehy allow it.
Personally I think the whole camp thing is Cr*p.I hate to say it but most are run by idiots.
I would never send a kid to camp if they were that sad.
You have plenty of time to " grow up". no need to rush it.
Everyone matures at a different rate and i dont think going away matures you any quicker or better.

When I was overseas studying i felt really really homesick in my first month overseas. The key to overcoming this is to keep yourself immersed in activities, so you won't have time to think about home.Make new friends, join some clubs or societies. Exercise lots, so when you hit the bed you'll be asleep in 5 minutes, no time to think of home at all.

Well i think that if you are homesick you should do something that you really enjoy to keep your mind off of missing home or the people you love that are there. Call home every night or every other night so that it eases your home sickness a little bit. i hope this works for you .

My home is in California, and I am stuck in another state, it sucks. Every day I wish I could go back there. One thing that has helped me is I keep pictures of California all around my house. I even put a picture of the beach as my wallpaper on my phone. I also put a bunch of stuff that reminds me of California in my car, a little crazy I know, but it helps. I just keep my hopes up and try to remeber the good times and never tell yourself that you can't make it through the day, because you can.

You could get in contact with those you left behind. Sometimes hearing a friendly voice eases the lonliness. Another thing would be to get to know your new suroundings. Find out what fun things there are to do.
I dont know your circumstances but after a period of adjustment, you will atart to feel more at home if you keep a positive outlook and make the effort.

Depends how far away you are.
Do you come from another country? Any bands from that country you enjoy?
Do you come from another state? Do you have a flag and some pictures?
Are you just far enough away from home that to call is long distance? Call!
I'm sorry that you're feeling lonely, but think of how independent you must be feeling right now!

The best thing is to make new friends in your new location. Try joining a club, a sports team, or volunteer somewhere. Having a network is probably what you are missing. That's what you need to re-create.

Find out more about yourself. Who are you? What do you enjoy doing? Other than being with your family and familiar surroundings. Being away from your usual environment is the best thing, you can find out things about yourself you didnt know. You can learn new things. Take this as a challenge! Enjoy! And before you know it, u'll get comfortable in this environment too!
