Home.....?

I moved from Ireland to Portugal when I was 10 years old against my will. I just turned 14 (02 April =] =]) recently. So it's been about 3 and a half years now. I still long to move back and despise it here in Portugal. I miss Ireland like crazy (not so much Ireland, but the town I grew up in). I dislike everything about Portugal; from the roads, to the buildings, to the people, to the whether, to school, etc.

Whenever I think about the fact that I may not get to move back for many many years, I begin to have a sort of panic attack.

Therefore, I'm always just pretending and imagining that I'm going to move back to Ireland before I turn 15. It's really weird, I imagine the friends I'll have, and school, and what I'll do and where I'll go and basically just imagine another life in Ireland, because I'm so miserable here. I know it's not healthy, and it sounds weird, but really, I'm not crazy xD

When will I get over this home-sickness?

I am 32 years old and I moved from home in 2005 and I still miss home sometimes. I think about it all the time. Sometimes you never get over it. You may need to go back and see if there is a reason why you wouldnt want to be there and maybe that will change your mind. I recently went back home and spoke with old friends. The economy is so bad there, hardly anyone is working and I thought...hmmm I better be grateful for where I am now. I could be back home in poverty but instead I am blessed with a great career, nice home and car and still striving. But if you go back and its better you may have the adverse affect. LOL! Good luck!
