Just that really.
I’ve been feeling down for a while. A few things I’m struggling with including a promotion I’m finding difficult to adjust to and living away from family and friends.
I moved to where I live now after university, to take a job in an industry related to my degree. I’ve worked at the same place for a few years and have been promoted a couple of times, however I haven’t been happy for a couple of years - I thought a promotion would help but it hasn’t and now I’m struggling with the role and workload. Aside from this I’m really missing home.
I live with my fiancé but don’t have friends where I live in and feel alone. To be honest, I probably haven’t made the effort to make friends but I’m naturally quite reserved, and I guess in big groups I can come across quiet or maybe a bit dull or boring. Over the last year or so I’ve started to feel really down, spent evenings/weekends crying, started to have what I assume are anxiety or panic attacks and have been teary at work. Something needs to change but I don’t know what to do. I’m worried that even if I move home or find a different job that I still won’t be happy.
I guess what I’m wanting out of this thread is advice on what to do and to know I’m not alone in feeling so lost in life...
