Soon we will be moving into a new house a few suburbs away from our old one. Im really upset about it because i feel so attatched to it since i've grown up in it and i cant imagine other people living in it. My mum and dad say we are moving for more room but yet i still seem to be upset about it. I dont think they understand how i feel and when i've told them they just tell me its not my choice. Iits gotten me into alot of fights too.
So is it normal to be upset? Is it not as bad as i think? Is there anything i can do to feel better? Should i be helping out as much i can? Has anyone felt the same way i do?

You bet it is normal to be upset. We humans make attachments to things from cars to clothes to homes. That is why we have "favorites", be it food, songs, movie, whatever.
You are giving up a lot. All you have come to know is about to change. And it IS HARD. Wait till you go to summer camp or college. These things are part of life. EVERYBODY goes through them.
I have lost many things in my life and moved 10 times. Try to look at it as an adventure--you may get to pick your own room in the new house or paint and decorate it to suit you.
Depending on how far away you move, there a new friends to make, neighbors to meet and maybe closer to a park, museum or library.
As bad as you feel, think of your parents, they are leaving their old house where they have raised you.!! So many memories for them. THEY HURT TOO !!!
Instead of fighting, ask your parents if you can help make things easy for them. Many times helping others, makes you feel better yourself. Pack your own room for the move. It will help make the transition to your new place.
But you are feeling normal. Be kind to yourself and give things time. They will work out.

you're moving on. everyone has to someday. you won't lose your friend if you explain everything to him. one day he'll meet a girl and get married and move out because he'll just want to move on with life. could you spend tonight drinking with him or something? if not then invite him round when your house is ready and have a mini party sort of thing. keep contact with him and you will both be fine.
