I'm single and the only ties I have here are my friends. If I had savings enough to resettle, I'm pretty sure I would. Although my family have been here for at least a thousand years, and probably much longer. Maybe I'm attempting to run away from myself, rather than the locale.
For me it was running from myself as much as anything else, I was barely hanging on by my fingernails. Sometimes there is only one option to save your sanity!
I have to say I have lost part of me, but I am still happier than I was. Probably doesn't make sense lol. The only person who can make that decision is you, but it should be for the right reasons or with the right goal in mind. Work is the hardest thing, I went a whole month without a job only just scraped through.
I moved about 15 months ago and my life changed quite a bit. I thought it was going to be a new chapter, and it was, but I still feel like I'm on a knife-edge. It's something inside me that needs to change. You can outdistance what is running after you, but not what is running inside you.
I'll get there. If I force myself to. Thank you, by the way.
Is it normal to want to move away and start a new life?
