Living a totally different lifestyle now seems to be making me feel depressed. From living in the city, I am stuck now in the province and I don't know if I can ever go back again. There are a lot of things that I need to consider. Moving to the city means a lot of effort and money. I am willing to do anything but the waiting time is killing me. It's making me feel depressed and I don't know how long will it take me before I go nuts!

good day cherriefic, i understand what you feel. as i was on the same boat before. though i am not living in a province. i can say that i was on the same situation before, because, it is almost the same thing that is happening to me. i am working as an administrator before receiving enough salary but i need to do a career redirection to start a family business here where i am now. but a sudden changed was happened and the family business plan was put into a nowhere plan. and now, i am waiting for a good break for me to start my own. same as you, i am in the part of waiting and this makes me feel depressed. however, i have thinked it thoroughly, why not to divert my attention to other things rather than thinking things which cannot help me to overcome my depression. since i have the internet connection, why not maximizing the use of it. so as a result, i have looked for opportunities on how to earn using this internet connection. and now, i can really say somehow, my depression nearly comes to its end. and my earnings is raising thoroughly. hoping you can also cope up with your depression. perhaps, you can also think of a way on how to make your stay at the province be useful to you. sometimes, we need to love the place and embrace what we have at the moment. and after that, God will surely give us the grace and request of our heart. have a nice day cherriefic.

hello cherriefic, i can offer my hand to be your friend if you want. although i am not there physically but you can still talk to me via internet. i can offer my little way of communication when you need someone to chat over. aside from that, i can also share some of the ways to earn online if you want to, so you can earn while staying there in your province.

I guess that it's all I have to do for now. Try to make money on line and stop feeling depressed. I can't be sad forever. It just feels as if it's eating me alive. MyLot seems to be really good for me. I can share my thoughts with other people which I can't do from anyone around here. It's hard when you need a friend and nobody seems to be around. In this website, I can just go ahead and talk about anything and it really made me feel a little bit better.

Thank you airasheila! It's good to have new friends online. Having this kind of conversations really helps a lot. At least earning while making friends and making extra money seems a good idea. :)

I understand how feel. I know it hard to get used to province life especially if you have been in the city for long. You can try to move to cheaper cities that won't require so much money.

I find it hard to adjust living in the province. It seems that everything is so slow. I can't even get sales on my on line shop now that I have to ship out the items since most of my customers are in my old place. I really need to find a cheaper city so I can start over.

I'll try my best. Thanks for the advice. Maybe being busy can take my mind of what I am feeling right now. I have tried it all but I am just wondering why I suddenly feel lazy to do anything. As if waking up is a chore already. My mind is resisting to get out of my room and I am trying my best to fight it and take short walks. Don't want to end up talking to myself.

Hello. So, you are not yet accustomed to the ways of life in the Province. Here is my experience. I grew up in a small town way out in the province. Lived there for a number of years. When I grew up to the age when I needed to start my career, I had to move to the city. Oh, that was a hard time living in the city. I felt so depressed. I missed my small town so much. So, how does that sound ? It is the other way around, right ? Don't worry. You will be happpier soon !

I grew up in the province but even when I was younger, I can't wait to move to the city. It felt that I was belong there although my parents raised me here. I love the idea of living there and people are always all over even it's already midnight. When I move to the city for college, I never even missed my town even once. I don't even have friends around here anymore.

I think that it is process that you are living and it happen to everybody when they move to a different place, they miss their place and friends and customs. But I thing you should give you at least 60 days and then if you still feel like you don't belong there try to find another place. Good luck.
