Our 2 familes kind of had it out over the phone because she came to my house to get away from her family, and her mom got in my moms face about it. So the last few days she hasnt seemed herself, she seems quieter and upset, she still says she loves me when i say it to her and she will say it to me without me saying it to her. But when she seems upset i ask her if everything is ok and she says yes, and i asked her if i ask that too much and she said a lil bit. So i said i wouldnt ask it so much. Well today is her first day of spring break and and she seemed upset again. I didnt ask her because i told her i wouldnt ask it much anymore, and asked her what she was doing today. She said she was going to do volunteer work at the hopewell house and if she didnt text me thats why, and i asked how long she was doing that today and all she said was i dont know. What worries me is she said if she doesnt text me thats why, she hasnt ever said that before. Do you think there is something going on or am i just worrying too much again?

Your girlfriend clearly has a lot on her mind. Volunteering can be very therapeutic for someone in her situation--it can refocus her attention and give her a breather from whatever anxiety, etc. she's feeling. Maybe while she's doing volunteer work she wants to be able to focus on it 100%.
It's natural to worry about someone you love who's going through a rough time, but for your own sake try to rein it in. (I know, easier said than done.) Let her know that you'll do whatever she needs you to do to support her through this.

 Maybe there is... maybe there isn't....
She will let you know when she is ready. This girl has a lot going on she has to deal with. So try not to make it worse by dumping your own fears and worries on her right now. Just be there for her when she needs you.
