Good Morning,
I am feeling very existentially aware right now so read on at your own risk it may be upsetting.
I'm currently in year eleven about to sit my GCSE's in two weeks and plan on doing sixth form at the same school I am currently at.
However I have realised that in two and a bit years -once I leave sixth form - I will know quite literally no one that I know now. and I a left feeling hopeless.
I've heard people planning to "stay in touch" if they are going to different sixth forms. But I am well aware I've got no hope of doing this so I pretty much consider them gone.
Now I feel entirely hopeless
Hey young lady/man,

Take it easy - altho 2 years will probably fly past, it is still some time away! You might meet other people your age during these 2 years or soon after - maybe join some clubs e.g. sports one if you are into sport or other social places where young people gather - you will robably meet people that you get on well with.

Even after the 2 yrs are over, if you either go to university or start a job, you will meet many people with varying personalities, hobbies, interests, pastimes - I would strongly suggest that you cross that bridge when you come to it - no use worrying about it r n, yeah? Make the most of today and I can assure you t-rrow will be even -better!

A famous person once said that life is like a train journey - people get on & off at various stations, some u get to know others just fleet by.

Relax, with medicine progressing at the blistering pace that it is, you have 100+ years ahead of you! Relax you will be fine!

Listen to the songs:
"Happy" by Phil Pherell
and:
Work hard Play hard.

Go on grab your problems by the neck - you can do it!
