Omg I'm so glad I found this because I feel the exact same way. It was my first year in my new school and I was very shy and quiet. Gradually I came out of my shell and made some friends. But in the middle of the year, I had a big downfall. I was having problems at home and a lot of problems with friends. My anxiety went through the roof and I didn't know what to do. After that I shut down, became very anti-social and told nobody what happened. Well my Spanish teacher could tell that I suddenly stopped being social, happy etc.. She called me after class several times asking if I needed to talk about anything, but I was to scared to trust anybody again so for the longest time I kept saying i was fine. Well one day in her class I just started to cry and my anxiety got the better of me. After class I asked if I could come see her in one of her prep periods bc at this point I needed to talk to her. She offered me such great advice and told me she will always be right here for me if I ever needed anything. Just hearing her support and stuff made me cry. We got closer over the year as I went to her with all my problems. I trusted her more then my own mom. And I always imagined it would be amazing if I could be her daughter. We aren't obviously allowed to follow our teachers on any social media and right now I'm on summer vacation and I'm missing her so much. I don't know who to go to whoever I need someone to talk to.
is it normal that i wish my teacher loved me like a daughter
