I'm sad about leaving my family and friends, and stressed about moving to a different city. I leave in a couple of days and even though the job I got is one I'm super excited about, my sad feelings have been overwhelming any form of excitement I can have about the move.
Any advice from some older folks would be great

Moved away from all friends and family after school three years ago. Showed up in a gateway market, without knowing a soul. Worked at a small company where I didn't have an analyst class to lean on when I wanted a beer after work. Learned more about myself in that first 6 months than I had learned about myself the previous four when I was away at school. Also learned how to make friends again which I hadn't had to do in many years. Be excited, not very often in your life do you get to hit the refresh button 100%.
Thanks jpacai, greatly appreciated.
Did you just end up participating in more hobbies and thats how you expanded your friend circle?
Did a few volunteer opportunities, honestly its stupid but tinder helped too lol. Made 1 good friend then once you make the first one they have friends and kept getting invited.
Learn to be comfortable with the uncomfortable, for that is how you grow. Welcome to the next chapter of your life, where you'll be forever challenging yourself :)
