I'm 20 years old. I have an attachment problem with my mom. I miss her so much. I moved out last year (at 19) in my own apartment....that last 6 months and I was so depressed and crying everynight cause I missed my mom/home so much. I finally moved home, but then wanted to move out with my boyfriend....it had been about 8 months since I last moved back home and in July I moved in with my boyfriend and his brother...well, I'm starting to get really homesick again, excpet this time I have my boyfriend to comfort me....how long does this last!!?? I feel so sad because I want to be little again, but I know I'm an adult and you have to move on...but it seems like a process I'll never get over. I've want kids my whole life, but now all of a sudden I'm scared because I don't think my kid's childhood will be like mine and I'll be sad I wasn't like my mother. I miss her so much! I still visit her, but it's not the same....how do you heal this?

Please just give it more time. My mom is my best friend and when I finally moved out, it was because I got married. When we divorced I moved back in with my parents. That only lasted 4 months. I moved out and stayed on my own for almost 5 years until I met my 2nd husband.
When you are really happy where you are, you won't be homesick anymore. I see my mom almost every other day and we spend Saturday's together.

Bad girl! Do you know how much you made me miss my mother now?? It's been like five thousand years I left me mum back in Ireland, am living like 500 lightyears away, haven't seen her since, only spoke two or three times on the phone (no news, good news!). And you know what? I am still homesick... But then again, me mam was the best!

just realize that your mom needs her space too...
you need to stop depending on people to make you feel safe and learn to be comfortable with yourself...
you'll be much happier then
