thinking of running away?

Now first of all i'm 20 so I'll be fine out on my own and stuff.

And i'm not doing this for attention or to hurt anyone, i just need time to clear my head.

I've already packed my bag and it's nearly 1am so was thinking of going soon.

But i'm meant to be doing a disco tomorrow for a little girls birthday and would hate to ruin her birthday.

I just dont know how much longer i can cope with things the way they are in my life, I've lost my child due to a miscarriage and my gf split with me too and i think a few days alone would help me out a lot.

Update:

Well i think i'm definately going to go ahead with the disco first of all, a break away is out of the question, i have hardly any money, just enough for food and stuff if i do run away.

Not really any family or friends i can stay with as this place is one of the things i feel i need to get away from for a bit. And it wont be for long, just maybe a few days or a week or so.

    Im really sorry for your loss, but the feelings your experiencing are grief, what you are going through is a natural reaction, the feeling of running away from it all, but in the end, it doesn't make it any better.

    Talk to your parent, ex gf, anyone who will listen you out and understand.

    Again, im sorry for your loss x

    you sound mature, but if i were you, i would talk it over with someone that you are close to before you do anything hasty. you have been hurt and you are grieving for the baby you lost. of course you are mixed up and sad. do the disco for the little girls birthday, do not disappoint her.. take time out for your self .maybe you have a relative or a friend that you could go and stay with. good luck

    Dont do it I ran away for 3 months when I was 18 and it sucks being on your own. Money was a bigg issue! Just stay there till you have enough money to get a place of your own.

    if that is what you want than go ahead:) but just let your family know you will be gone for some time. and i am sorry about your unborn child and gf i wish you the best and hopefully some free time to get your head straight will do you some good.

    u know u dont hve to run away. if u dont live with ur parents, go and visit them. if u do live with ur parents, just go somewhere u know you can clear ur mind. maybe go to a place you loved going during ur childhood. a lake, pond, etc. you can also talk with a counsler (even tho your 20)

    GOOD LUCK.

    Stay for the birthday, clear your head, then do it. At least then it wont be as selfish, ruining her party.

    you don't have to run away. do the disco, clear your schedule & take a vacation.

    well instead of dramatically "running away" how about you just tell your family your going on a little vacation or trip...
