Irrational Fear

It sounds like the move has made you feel insecure. Moving is very stressful and it's normal to find it's tough for a while.

I used to be like that too right after my mom started letting me stay home alone. Just find something to do to ocuppy your time. Also it helps to call that person and just talk to them every once in awhile to set your mind at ease. Eventually you'll get over it.

Perfect answer, man i cant top that one

Don't worry this is very common. A suggestion I have to get over it is to let your father know and ask him to call and check in with you every hour or so. I know it sounds kind of like a reverse of roles, but it will make you feel better to know he is ok. Try calling your mom, other family member, or close friend, and that will also help. I have had a lot of people ask me this question. Good Times and Good Luck friend.

This sounds a lot like Separaton Anxiety. Was there a time right before you had these feelings that you felt out of control of your fathers' fate or a time when he was in harm?
