What's wrong is obvious. When you're dad left, you were upset that your mom might leave to, is that right? So you want to be around her as much as possible to make sure she doesn't leave. You need to talk to your mom about this, if she truly loves you (which she probably does) she will tell you that she wouldn't ever leave, and that you don't have to worry about that. ]
We think you miss your dad. It feels different without him in the house. Our Suggestion is to call him every night before you go to bed. I hope our advice works ]
It sounds to me like anxiety. I went through exactly the same thing when I was 12. I used to be trying to sleep alone in my bed and I just couldn't, so I snuck into my parents room and climbed into bed with my Mum. The fact was, I was going through some bad stuff at the time and was suffering with bad anxiety, although I didn't realise it at the time.
I suspect that with your Dad gone, you're probably experiencing a lot of anxiety yourself. You're worried about your Dad, your Mum and yourself and sometimes that gets on top of you so it's natural that you wouldn't want to be alone.
Try talking to your Mum and see what happens. It might be that acknowledging your anxiety helps you to control it. ]
Nothing is wrong with you. I think that you just don't want your mom to be lonely and that's a good thing. You just want to be there for her but sometimes you have to realize that she might be fine. Just try to sleep in your own bed for a few nights and maybe you'll figure out what the deal is. ]
