Missing my teacher :(


Question Posted Saturday August 3 2013, 6:45 am

This teacher that I was really close to left my school at the end of the year
and now I'm kind of realising how much I actually miss him. I didn't really say
goodbye to him properly which I really regret

Also, he's moved really far away so I will literally never see him again and
I have no way of contacting him. I was just wondering if anyone has had a
similar experience and/or any tips for how I can cope?

There are many different reasons why a person may not have had a chance to say goodbye to someone...often it's the death of a loved one and not being able to get to their deathbed in time. The person will know you cared about them but the saying goodbye part is really something for you not for the other person to hear.

So the best therapy for one self is to physically write a letter on paper or do so on your pc and save it. In the letter get all your thoughts and feelings out and say what you didn't get a chance to say.
Many people do this on a fairly regular basis throughout life for all sorts of things.
Its called journaling or keeping a diary. It is very helpful for getting out ones thoughts that lay heavily on the mind. And though the person it is addressed to cannot ever receive the letter, it still works because it helps your subconsious mind process the situation as if it went the way you wished it did. And thereby, your subconsious mind which has the feelings and emotions connected to the event will actually feel enough closure so that it can go on without the strong feelings that were tormenting beforehand.
