I hate sleepovers!?!?!?!

I really dont know what to do because I hate sleepovers and im 14 and I havnt done one for like two and a half years now ! I guess its just because I get really homesick and nerveous and insecure anf d then I worry if im going to fall asleep … Its a fear of mine I guess I’ve just had really bad expiriences so my mind built up a fear??/but I feel really guilty and bad because my best friend paige really wants me to go sleep at her house and I said that I might try one again but I just get nerveouse about the thought?? and I know people think im childish lame and weird for not doing it … and when my parents want to go out they get really cross with me becuase I dont want to go sleep anywhere and so they cant go out… Help I need really good advice im already stressing about leaving my house to go on camp next year… What do I tell my friends what do I do??? I hate them and this really gets me feeling low… And ps: I hope this makes sence… Sorry for bothering you guys but I really am lost???

Hun, I used to be exactly the same about a year or two ago. See, one time my sixth grade year I had gotten sick at my grandmas and my mom was out drinking that night so she nor my dad was there. It made me so nervous to stay at others houses because honestly, (this makes me sound silly and childish) I was super nervous that my mom was not there with me. After a couple of years of going through such anxiety, I started beccoming more independent and responsible that I just grew out of it. It’s only a stage, and it will go away sooner or later. What you need to do to grow out of this is start having more sleepovers at others houses. You WILL grow out of it!!! When you’re there, just keep yourself busy. In that case, it will keep your mind off thinking that you dont want to be there.

If you have any other questions or want to talk more about it just funmail me (:

good luck!!

ehm maybe start with some sleep overs at your house… then when you start getting more confident start going to her house bring your mobile and something from home e.g teddy with you and this will help you feel less nervous also start going to town e.g cinema more with your frnds good luck
