I came to the US two months ago, and I left behind everything, my parents, my friends, my home, my furniture, my books.. I was an extroverted, happy, confident, talkative, friendly and brave woman who had lots of friends, but since I came here, I have become a shy, introverted, lonely person who struggles to even order a coffee, and I am always afraid of making a fool of myself in front of other people. I always feel vulnerable and it exhausts me...besides I envy those who talk or laugh or study with their friends, and I want to cry when I think that people sitting next to me in the bus, are able to actually go and see their parents if they want, while I am not even being able to video chat with them. I keep asking myself "does it worth it" and although my answer is always "yes" I feel defeated as if I lost everything for nothing....

reading your post couldn't alliviate my pain, but made me feel human again, that I am allowed to be this lost. it reminds me that I have come a long way to be here and I have been the bravest to face all the unbearable fears and still try my best for the future. Though I hope the day I call this place home comes soon...

thank you for writing this post! I wish you the best of luck with your new home :)

The going with time I read a blog, I perceive that it doesn't bomb me other than as much as this particular one. In this way, I handle it was my choice to check out, notwithstanding I truly believed you would beyond question have something fundamental to review. All I hear is a colossal store of crying about something you could fix in the event that you were not clamoring looking for thought. https://digitalsdailynews.com/
