<p>So I am a senior in high school. It just hit me today that I have 3. 3. Only 3 months left in high school. Then, my entire life changes. </p>
<p>I am SO depressed. I mean, on one hand, I am very excited about going away to school and the new life and stuff. On the other, bigger hand, I am so depressed about leaving my family, my hometown, my friends, my entire old life behind. It hit me how much I'm going to miss my friends and my family, and.. pretty much everything. </p>
<p>How did you guys dealt with it? I keep on having all these sad thoughts about how much I'm going to miss my mom, my dad, my brother, my cats, my friends, everything. And then I feel like time is just passing by so so quickly and how I wish I could have an extra four years of high school just so that it wouldn't end so soon. </p>
<p>I just can't wait to take another step closer to actually living life. I can't wait to get a job, get an apartment, not have any homework, get my own pet, get married, have kids, and all that fun stuff.</p>
<p>I mean, wow. I feel the complete opposite of the OP's emotions. I can't wait to escape my high school and this little town. If three months were to just disappear off the calendar I would feel complete elation. I mean, I am not depressed at all.</p>
<p>I feel the opposite too. I can't wait to get out this place. It's dragged on for too long, it's time for a new scenery and new surrounding with new people. Let's graduate already, come on!</p>
<p>I'm feeling the same way... This year I've made a bunch of new friends that I'm leaving behind after only knowing them for 11 months or something. Not just any friends, but "best" friends and romantic interests. Now if I start a relationship with one of them, it can really only last for six months before college forces itself between us and ruins what we ha(ve|d).
So yeah. Totally feel for you.</p>
