Okay so a little while ago me and my mom and my brothers moved to Newfoundland because we loved it and it was my moms home for a long time and Me and my brothers just loved it when we vacationed down there too. So we moved down with my grandparents and they bought a house in a tiny town. I went to school and made AMAZING friends and I just felt really comfortable which is hard for me because I have really bad social anxiety. My mom didn't like it very much down there so we moved back about 6 months later.

it's been about 2 years since then and now I am considering going back because of how comfortable there and because of the amazing friends I made there. And also because since I have been back my social anxiety has started to get to the point where it becomes physically painful to go to school. So I want to move back.

But you see I am really close to my mom and love her more than anyone in the world. We are really close and I could talk to her about anything. The only reason I am not packing my bags now is because of my mom. I would miss her soooo much. Sure I could talk to her on the phone and skype and facebook but I would miss her hugs plus there is a gigantic time difference.

So I now ask for your honest opinions on what I should do, you total strangers! :P

Also I am 14 and would be going to my old Junior High and I would be moving into my old house with my grandparents again.

Thank you so much... this question has plagued me for months.

Cheers!!!

P.S. I have also sought counseling for my Social Anxiety. I have been to a couple of sessions but my parents cannot afford to treat it as neither of them have benefits and we are a little tight on money now.

Thanks again!

Assuming you mother agrees with all of this, go for it.
If you have amazing friends in that school, and your anxiety decreases its a win win situation to me.
As you said yourself, you could skype her and talk in facebook. During the holidays you could visit her.
