I have a problem with...?

Question

This weekend (Friday and Saterday) my youth group (only the girls in the youth group though) is going to a conference in another city 45 minutes away. They are going to spend the night in the city on Friday and come home on Saterday. I really want to go to the conference with them but I don't want to spend the night with them in the city of th conference. I want to go home and sleep at home and return to the city the next day. I have a problem with not being able to sleep without my parents with me. I get really scared without them. If I don't have them with me at night then I always have scary thoughts and I can't fall aleep. So I haven't spent the night anywhere without my parents for about two years now (I6 by the way). But then I really want to go to the conference and I don't want my sleeping problem to get in the way. But I'll be a wreck when it comes to bed time. What should I do? How can I get my fear to leave me at night so I can spend the night in the city? Or should I not go

Answer 1

I am going to try and answer your question as honestly as possible. I am a christian so that is where I am basing this answer on. Going to the conference with your youth group can be an awesome opportunity for you, you must remember fear is not of God. Pray and ask your youth group and parents to pray also that God will remove that fear of being away overnight. God can do anything. He loves you and WILL answer your prayers. Know that the scary thoughts do come from satan and you have the power through God to tell him to leave you alone, he has no choice but to leave. Then pray for God's peace. I too will pray for you. I do hope you enjoy your conference :)

Answer 2

Do you really think that your parents being in the same boulding can make you any more safe? You are being irrational, and I really feel sorry for your parents at the selfishness you are showing. its time to grow up and take responsibility for your own life. Go to the conference, and learn to depend on yourself to scare away the boogiemen.

Answer 3

You should go,You need to cut bait sometime, I know your fear,
I remember when I got married {young} I cred for My mother.
Your feelings are normal,You will be with a group,not alone and
if you start to feel fear,remember You are only 45 minutes away.
Go, Have fun !!!!!!!! Also keep in mind your parents are really only a phone call away.

Answer 4

I say go...ask your parents to write you a letter that you could read that night of the conference...and leave them one to. Just start taking baby steps...and the letter from them will help you sleep.

Answer 5

Girl, see it as an opportunity to gain power over your fears, you are with friends and that should comfort you, trust in them you will not be alone.
If you don't go to this thing you really want to then you might regret it in the future, think about all of what you'll miss if you don't experience things like this

Answer 6

There probably isn't a quick fix for this kind of a problem. You really should see a psychologist about this. With the right help and guidance you might be OK for the next conference.

Good luck.

Answer 7

He could check out a further variety of shaving gel, a few of them are designed to aid melt up the stubble. Of direction that's on the whole for the shave itself. Over time I might consider your dermis will grow to be used to the abrasive nature of his chin. A lotion for your dermis earlier than making out could aid additionally. Perhaps he would develop a goatee or a beard. Long facial hair does have a tendency to be softer.

Answer 8

Your parents won't be with you all your life, along the long run. You should try it out. How about some sleeping pill just for that night?

Answer 9

You should try it. Can your parents pick you up if it doesn't work out?
