My best friend is leaving me to go to australia,is it normal to be scared?
My best friend is Australian, but I'm really attatched to her. Although i do have other friends none compare to her. I literally every minute with her at school (to the extent that we even got an award "joined at the hip" from our hockey coach) but next year she's leaving to return to Australia and I'm never going to see her again. I'm scared. One lunch time a week she has viola practise which i dont do and i struggle without her. I try to fit in with other friends, but they;re in their own groups so won't fully accept me. I'm scared that when she leaves I'm going to be alone and all by myself. It's going to be the year of my A levels, so i can work, but surely im going to get stressed and so will need a friend to support me? I have concidered moving schools, but my school is the best in the area (especially considering that I need to be pushed to work, and this is quite a strict school). is it normal to be afraid? Is there anything i can do to stop myself from being isolated?
