As the title, I relocated to Switzerland 10 months ago.
In the beginning I had the usual normal anxieties of moving away from home for the first time. However as time went by, adapting to living in Switzerland became harder for me.
I feel a bit defeated because Switzerland is a beautiful place and there are so many good things I love about it, but I just cannot seem to be happy 😔 winter is now here and I feel a bit worse.
I am thinking of moving back to my home country. The thought of being back around my family, the things I love to do, my old friends is making me want to go back more and more. I had an easy life but my salary was not the best hence why I wanted to move.
Is it normal to regret? I am very disappointed in myself for feeling like giving up and going back. But I have been quite depressed for the last 7 months.
When I said the words out loud that I want to go back home I felt a huge sense of relief…however I am still hesitant to lose the opportunity to live here.
I am welcoming any advice you can share. Thank you everyone.
Is it the country or the city? I moved to Thailand 11 months ago. It’s beautiful here, but being away from what you’ve known for so many years is difficult. I’m having second thoughts, but I visited a different city last month and am thinking of moving there in the new year.
If you have the choice to move around before making a final decision, remember something drew you to Switzerland. Find the vibe that will keep you there, or try Sweden, Finland, or somewhere else!
