Soooo we moved as a family abroad roughly 6 months ago with my partners job. I almost immediately regretted the decision crying and feeling totally homesick from the very beginning but thought it would just go away. It sort of did as i got busy learning the language and I made a few friends so life was looking good.
However every couple of weeks I just have these spells of being super down and angry about my situation here - we gave up everything to be here (left my job and sold our house!). Life isn't necessarily better its much the same but minus my family. I knew where ever we would be it would involve school runs and dashing around tidying the house at the weekends- it comes with family life however I feel like this isn't even worth it. I also really struggling with being an immigrant and how difficult we have made our two children's lives. I feel so guilty for what we have done to them taking them away from their grandparents- they both seem happy however the long term affects on their futures weighs heavy on my mind.
Its my first post here and feeling emotional so just needed to blurt out my situation to strangers and see if this is just a normal thing?or if yes we have messed up our lives and should probably run back to the U.K???
I just feel regret and should never have agreed to move in the first place or aibu to my DH as he loves life here and believes it is the best thing for our family?
