Dealing with Transferring

I am currently in the process of transfer in the spring semester. My current school was not for me and as it was a difficult decisions to leave and start over again, it believe it will allow me to be happier and focus on my education. I was wondering if anyone had any tips in order for me to make it till the end of the semester as each day is a struggle. Also, how should I go about telling my friends and people I know, since I will be transferring to a school back home?
