I can't see what you posted, so I'll have a look once it's up.
Well, it's very different over here. At first, I was excited because I was moving states, going to meet new people and being in a different environment. I don't think it's been how I hoped.
I've made one friend. I met a group of people who never stayed together, and others in my classes just didn't want to stay in contact.
I eat dinner alone every night unless I'm seeing someone. Who would I see other than family and my one friend?
I don't know anyone in my building, and my two neighbours I see once a week, if not even less. Of who we don't speak. Maybe a smile and that's it. Sometimes it's hard to get even that around here.
I miss my friends at home and family, but I do like how busy it is over here. I'm sure I'll find my people at some stage.
I don't want to go back home. Spending a week with my parents is more than enough. I like having my own space to do what I want.
I also can't go back because I won't be able to do my degree at UTAS, so I have to stay, which I want to do. I need to make adjustments to how I see things.
Also, my rapid decline in MH didn't help. I've been in hospital twice this year. So that's great.
It's been tough moving on my MH with not knowing anyone.
Overall, even though I'm saying a lot of negative things about it, it will just take time to meet people and develop connections. I'm sure they will happen.
My uncle told me when I moved to the USA for two years. It took him that whole time to meet people and feel like he belonged. I've been here nine months, so it's just starting. @Blackbird11
Sorry if that sounds sad. I guess it is a bit. I wish it was a happier time, but sadly, no.
