I'll definitely be going, there's no going back on that, it would be incredibly silly of me not to. I think I'm just finding it hard to adjust to life changing around me again. I had a really rough time growing up and university did me a whole lot of good, I adapted really well, got good grades, was social, and I'm just afraid of taking myself out of my comfort zone by moving when this was pretty much the first and only time in my life that I've felt fine.
It's even more silly because I'm not even done with uni yet, I still have one more year to go in my master's. I'm just the kind of person that tries their hardest to plan their future, but right now I'm staring at a great unknown that I can't rationally manage and find it hard to just "go with the flow" - is it even wise for me to do that?
Eventually your friends will all end up going their own ways too, forging their life paths. Doesn't mean you won't see them again and you'll meet new people. It just takes a little more effort since you all won't be in the same place anymore.
Don't stunt your future because of fear. Flip that energy into excitement and look towards the what could be. You got this.
