    Default Horrible Feeling of Moving....

    Has any one had a really hard time detaching yourself from your childhood home?

    I have a sad feeling in my gut about moving from my childhood home even though I want to move out of this stupid desert. Our house has so many good memories
    and I am going to be crying like a baby when it sells. I know it will be be a good change for me to move on somewhere new and start a new fresh chapter in my life.

    I feel a gutwrenching pain and attachment to this place though. My parents met in front of the driveway here and I have been here since I was a baby on and off through out my life. My grandpa and I were best friends and this is where all of our memories were. I am so sentimental over something as stupid as a house.

    Every time a real estate agent comes by my heart sinks and I get nervous. Our house needs remodelling and my sisters bf said that when some rich person
    buys it they might even tear it down.

    That makes me feel even worse. I just cant imagine someone else taking it over
    and destroying it.

    How do I stop being so attached to an inanimate object like a house??
    I know it should be easy but I really am stuck on this place.
    Ive been here since I was crawling around in my diapers.

    Sorry I am so sappy.

    Growing is painful. Try to think of it as a new adventure for your life.

    I've been in your shoes.



    Maybe you can go around your home, yard and get some things to take with you in a memory box....even if it's just a piece of a fencepost, rock from your yard, piece of carpet...etc.

    Yes it is painful even thinking about leaving. Fuck this sucks. I am way too sentimental about stuff.
    Thats a good idea I should make a little memory box. And take lots of pictures.
    Thankyou for your post =)

    You should write your thoughts, feelings, and memories out in a journal.

    I imagine it must be tuff for you right now. Keep strong.

    I've been kinda depressed lately too. I've been living on my own(and away from my parents) since I started college. and lately I've missed living with my mom so bad. I've burst into sobs when I'm alone because I just miss living with her at home. weird.lol.
    so you're not alone in a way.
    feel better.

    I think you have every right to get sappy, Mallory--your identity is bound up in this place of your childhood, your family and memories, so of course it is hard to see it go. I went through that myself with a family home many, many years ago: I was the last one in the place, and I remember how strange the empty house seemed just before I left it. But what I found was that home is where the family is, and where friends are--truly. My family lives in entirely another state now, and that is "home" to me--they all are there. And the old house has a new family living in it, and I can tell they are enjoying it--children growing, a new addition added onto the house (it always needed it), a new color paint on the place. It is nice to watch the house become a good shell for another, growing family. So sorrow has its place here, but you will see it is short-lived, and life is telling you in all of this that new adventures, new horizons, wait for you. Hang in there, and I hope you're feeling better soon!
