I've posted a few times in different areas of this forum. We are a family of four moving to Calgary in 3 weeks time. Up until now I've had immense feelings of excitement and elation but something happened this morning...I woke up with the feeling of sheer horror at what we are doing. I think it's because last night lots of items of our furniture left (sold, given away etc) and reality really sank in. I've been teary all day today. On this forum I have read so many positive things about moving and changing lives. Everyone has been so upbeat. But I'm scared that I'll be the exception to the rule!
I want to know that it CAN be awful at times but that you get through it. And most of all, I want to know how people have coped with leaving their friends. I don't think my issue will be leaving the UK...it's more about leaving the people I love. So I'm almost asking for people to tell me their lowest moments, and that they coped! Because today, I don't think I can. Any advice?
