im 15 and my mom went to hawaii. she has been gone for a week. i cry every night. we are so close. she treats me like a real person not like some trash lying in the gutter. when im sad, i just think of her smile. that always brought a smile to m face. i cant stop crying. she knows my number, but she never calls me. im alittle nervous to call her. im not sure how i can start a conversation and break the ice. im too scared to call her. if i dont call her, then i guess i cant talk to her. help! she wont call me. she knows the number. i talk to her the day she left and thats it. i didnt think the first time would hurt so much. she wont call me! i want her to! everytime someone calls i think its my mom, but when i answer its always my friends calling. i tried calling my mom once and all i get is a busy tone. i cant take anymore of these false alarms. i want it to be my mom calling not somebody else. i keep getting my hopes up thinking its her when its not. help! i miss my mom so bad!

Whether you call it "homesickness" or "separation anxiety", or whatever, this is a time of "testing" for you, and you can make it through.
Is this your first separation?
If you genuinely want to speak with her, you do the calling. Don't take one single busy signal for an answer - call back. I've had more trouble getting through immediately on long distance calls than I do with local.
To help your anxiety, consider naming a day and time when you will next speak to each other. This will help you, and her.
When I am away from the family, I'm so busy and focused on the present and new surroundings, that calling is something I just rarely think of doing. I find travel and visiting people to be an exhilirating experience, and just figure that everything is going on at home the way it always does, unless someone calls and tells me differently.
If you were my teenager, I would expect you to be busy with your own life. If you can't do this, then maybe this is a good "exercise" for you to learn to think and to act independantly. Most 15yr olds aren't quite that tied to Mom still.
Find a book to read, or an activity to do to occupy you while she is away. This can make you feel accomplished about yourself and it can also help you to pass the time, with a purpose in mind.

Well you must consider we all miss our moms at some point in our lives and you also have to think that she may have been trying to call you at the same time as the busy signal...or you can't get through because of the long distinctness or something for the crying why don't you try sleeping with a blanket or pillow of hers or something that is hers if you count down the days till shes home that will also cheer you up because there's that many days until you can squeeze her to death!!! Trust me on this.
Hope I helped!!

sorry to hear that your mums not calling you and that you feel upset.
do you wnat to know what i think?
i think that all she wants is a little bit of space.
when shes had her rest im sure that shell call you and the reason that her phone came up busy well it might just be because well you called her at wrong time.
im sure she miss's you too just try to be a little patient she is going to call you sooner or later!

CALL HER SWEETIE. IF YOU ARE THAT WORRIED ABOUT HER CALL HER. CHECK YOUR # YOU MIGHT BE DIALING WRONG OR WROTE IT DOWN WRONG. CALL INFORMATION AND MAKE SURE THE # YOU HAVE IS RIGHT. IF YOU ARE AS CLOSE AS YOU SAY YOU ARE, SHE WONT GET MAD. HOPE IT ALL WORKS OUT. CALL HER!!!!!! MAYBE SHE IS WAITING ON YOU TO CALL. AND DOESNT WANT YOU TO THINK SHE DOESNT TRUST YOU OR IS A WORRY WORT. MAYBE YOU BOTH ARE WAITING ON THE OTHER TO CALL. HOPE THIS HELPS. ~ANGEL EYES~ KELLYMCINTIRE2007@YAHOO.COM

You will never get out.
