I've been really clingy to my mom lately, why could this be?

O.K., I know this is going to make me sound like a pansy, but I'm a 14 year old guy in 9th grade. This year I started a new high school and don't have that many friends except in band, where my cousin is in too, but it's at the end of the day. My parents are divorced, so I see my mom about half the time I normally would. The bus comes and gets us the mornings we're with my dad, and our mom takes us the mornings she has us. Ever since school started, I wake up every morning no matter what house and become sad. Usually when I'm doing things and no one can hear me I get pretty sad in my room. When I get to school, I really start to miss my mom, and feel like I'm going to cry all day. I haven't told her that, and I try to spend as much time with my mom as I can, but I'm always so sad in the mornings. When I see her, I'm just fine, but I'm constantly sad at school because I miss my mom. Why is this happening and how can I make it stop so I can go on with school?

DO NOT ALLOW YOURSELF TO FEEL LIKE A PANSY BECAUSE YOU LOVE YOUR MOTHER!



this is the sweetest thing i've ever heard in my life.. don't worry, my older brother is nearly 19 and he's a freshman at college. he's a momma's boy. carry a picture of her around or text her during lunch.:]



good luck sweetie!

p.s im the same age as you, you sound awesome.

NOT A PANSY, trust me!
Reply:You sound like you are depressed. Tell your mom you want to see your doctor.
Reply:Maybe you have separation anxiety? I've had it in the past because my mom is very sickly and I would never stay the night at peoples houses. Well she got sick last year (in the hospital for 3 months, coma %26amp; life support for 3 weeks). Now I don't stay the night at other peoples houses either, and I worry about her when I go to the movies and such. You just need to talk to your mom about this. She could help you more than anybody else. Im sure she can give you better advice than any of us, because she knows you. She could get you some help, therapy probably. Another thing you could do is join a few clubs, or start a sport. That would help you socialize. Ask your cousin to introduce you to some new people. I hope this helped.
Reply:You seem to be going through a level of insecurity in your life and you need someone to talk to and to protect you. You have to talk to your mom about your life and see if she can help you or not, you should find a school counselor to help you through. You have to do your best to work it out as soon as possible or else when you turn 15 or 16, things and emotions will run stronger than now and you will not be able to solve them. So make sure you have a way to work things out as soon as possible or it will get worse as you get older into your teenage years.
Reply:WELL DON'T WORRY. IT'S OKAY I'M 17 AND I STILL GET THAT FEELING ONCE IN A WHILE. YOU SHOULD PROBABLY TALK TO YOUR MOM ABOUT IT. YOU KNOW YOU SHOULD TRY WRITING THESE THINGS DOWN. MAYBE MAKE IT INTO A SORT OF JOURNAL OR FUN BOOK AND SHARE IT WITH HER. IT'S A THOUGHT THAT I JUST HAD. MAYBE WHILE LOOKING BACK AT THIS YOU'LL FIGURE IT OUT WHY IT'S HAPPENING. ALSO TRY SPENDING MORE TIME WITH HER. HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL.
Reply:You're just going through some changes, and are trying to hold onto the familiar.

I would suggest talking to someone, so they can help you work through this!
