Subject: RE: BS: bbc has moved
I can imagine how you are feeling. I have gone through a number of huge life changes in the last few years, and another one is coming up. I will be moving in about 3 weeks. I think it will be a good thing in the end, but the getting there feels really overwhelming.
Change is always scary, even if you know it will be for the best. It's really good that you are able to be back on Mudcat again. Being able to share your thoughts and feelings with others, and spending time with friends is really important. Your support network will gradually build around you and you will begin to feel settled.
I myself am dreading the BIG MOVE - I have heaps of accumulated stuff, including a piano and a large fishtank, so I'll just be glad when the moving part is over.
The thing that stops me from completely panicking is that I know I have always somehow got through difficult times, some of them worse than this, and survived, and that I have a wonderful network of friends.
So feeling inadequate and overwhelmed is just something that will pass. Before long, you (and I) will be feeling quite adequate and whelmed.
