[quote=Anonymous]OP I am sending you and DS virtual hugs. Freshman first semester can be so hard even under normal circumstances and these are such abnormal times. I remember calling my parents almost nightly in tears, but the truth is I saved up my tears for them and got through the lonely first quarter pretty well. My parents would come take me to brunch on Sundays (although the RA didn’t like that; thought I should tough it out). Are you close enough to his school for a weekend visit? For me (and like your son. I was very independent) I missed my family and had many mixed feelings about growing up and away. But by the second semester I’d adjusted and found my tribe. No real advice except that you may want to visit him to do a Mom “mental health” check. If no real depression, I bet he’ll adjust and be good soon. Hugs.[/quote]
