I get you man. I remember that when I was left at university for the first night I cried and texted my mum saying I wanted to come home. It took me a considerable amount of time to get settled in. It's the obvious advice, but just surround yourself with new friends, activities, and the things you love to do and it'll get easier.

Take the emotional strain you're feeling as a sign of growth and not weakness. Just like getting better at a musical instrument inevitably involves times of frustration, anger, or desperation as you stretch your limits, so too does growing as a human.
