In college, many students reach that state where the home they grew up in no longer feels like home to them. It is very common and was bound to happen anyway. In the beginning of this stage of life, you probably barely noticed it. But overtime, you really noticed it and the feelings that were brought along with it. Here is why it is perfectly okay to feel these feelings.

Everyone at some point feels these feelings. It perfectly natural to feel at home in a different place. I feel at home in my dorm on campus, but someone else may feel at home in a rent house or an apartment in another town or even another state. There are college students that go to school in a different state than where they are from and realize they feel at home there.

You may feel weird or out of place at the home you grew up in. If you have never felt that way before, it will feel even weirder for you because you have no idea why there was this sudden change in emotion towards your childhood home.

You are now grown up enough to make a place your own home. It's time for you to step out in to the world and claim it. It's your consciousness telling you to get up and rock your own world. You're not going to believe this, but your parents went through the same stage at one point in their life. You have nothing to be ashamed of.

It may take time for you to be unashamed by the lack of home feeling at your childhood home. Talking to your parents will help you deal with it. They may tell you exactly what you need to hear. Once you have dealt with your feelings and become accustomed to them. You can decide what to do next with your life.

I have felt these very same feelings and understand where you are coming from. It took me time to figure out why I was feeling the way I was. In the process of that, I learned to not be ashamed of those feelings. You are not alone in this battle. Many people face those same feelings.
