Im not sure if I need to do something differant.

  My daughter is 9 months old and I am a single mother with 2 roommates.  We only get to go home and see my parents and my brothers and their family every 4-5 weeks.  Addisyn is not used to them and will not let me put her down very much and when I do I cannot leave the room.  She does this to other people to, including people I work with.  Is there anything I can do to get her where she feels comfortable without me right there?

This is perfectly normal for her age!  She's becoming attached to you which is actually a good thing.  I know it's frustrating for you, but this is phase most all kids go through.  My daughter did the same thing and is now a little better, but still likes to stick pretty close to her momma - she's almost 2 now.  You're doing the right thing by being there for you when she needs you - this will help her learn to develop trust that you'll always be there for her.  Good luck!
