Venting Would I be happier if I moved to another country?

[babyblue25]

I live in South Korea. I've always admired Finland cuz it seems to have beautiful nature and such a peaceful atmosphere.
It's been a dream of mine for a long time, and if circumstances allow, I'd love to immigrate there someday... I really don't like my country.
In SK, there are just too many situations where you end up getting entangled with other people
The relationships between individuals often feel overly close and invasive
I want to live a bit more distanced from everything around me.
I feel like if I could leave everything behind and start a quiet life somewhere else, I might finally be a little happier

I say why not! You may as well give it a try right?

I would be happier if I moved to a place where those who torment me would not find me, or that they would cease to exist before me.

Moving to another country is unlikely to truly change anything.

As someone who's moved country three times, I can say that on the surface it helps for the first few days or weeks while everything is new and fun, but then reality hits again. Only this time reality is hitting in a place where you're unfamiliar with the local culture and language.

I have also considered dropping everything and moving away again, but I know this wouldn't really fix anything. I would just be suicidal in a different country.

Life follows us everywhere.

Maybe , I hear Finland is wonderful if you are mentally ill and have a trauma it may not change much though

ctb is a BIG decision so i dont see why not to make a big decision and move !! ♡ i wish happiness for you

 

[tpboy]

do not move to America

 

[LeavingEarly]

I have moved a few times and I still have the same mental health issues.

If you're asking the question, the answer is probably yes.

Why not? I'm in China, and this society is making me collapse.

You won't know what will change for you unless you do the step and move to another country. Traveling and living in other countries can enrich your life and lead to a much better well being maybe you even find love in another country.

Give it a try it's worth it!

 

[Kanoh]

It can both make you feel better but also much worse. You won't know unless you try.

yeah you very well might!! i had a friend who was very depressed and suicidal but simply moving to a different state with a different culture and better weather + nice beaches and scenery completely changed her life and now she's recovered and quite happy. it's definitely worth a try :)
