Empty Nest?

Posted by Jade on September 2, 2000, at 17:11:58

My nineteen year old daughter left for university today. She is living with a close friend who has been attending this school for 2yrs now.

I have been excited about her going and looking forward to having my space to myself to study, as I am a student as well. The day before yesterday I was suddenly hit by the thoughts of her leaving and was so saddened by it. Today when saying goodbye I was so overwhelmed with tears but unsure of the emotions. When I arrived home it hit me again and I am feeling so overwhelmed.

Is this to be expected over a period of time and for how long? Anybody been through this?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jade
