Stressing Out

[thelaststraw123]

So bit of a back story...
I was in an extremely abusive relationship that ended with me going to a refuge on the 2nd December last year.
I've been in refuge ever since.

I got confirmation today that I pick my keys up for my new flat on 2nd August 🥳🥳🥳

AIBU to be completely anxious about the move? It's to a different county, so all new people and a fresh start without everyone knowing my story
Not only that after living in a house with numerous other people, I'm slightly scared of being on my own

You are a very brave strong person , congratulations. What you did takes guts so be proud of yourself.
Speak to the senior ones who run the refuge and tell them how you feel and see if they can advise. Perhaps arrange for somone to be in touch with you and help you settle in. I know some refuges have a system for those moving on.
They may have a social worker and team who can help.
Good wishes .

You have done the hard part and now you have a new adventure. Perhapa see if there are any groups (wi/church/am dram/whatever takes your fancy) and build a social life slowly. You'll be meeting new people and although it will feel lonely at first acquanintances become friends. Enjoy your new freedom.
