Hey guys. I’m 25F. I was raised in the Middle East, Dubai/Bahrain and have had a fabulous life there. I moved to italy a couple of years ago and loved it way more than I liked the Middle East. It started to feel like home there. I’m a national of a horrible weak country so I don’t have the option to just pack my bags up and move.

My husband is American so I moved to America about 4 days ago but am finding it extremely hard to adjust. I’ve travelled here before but have not loved it as much so moving here permanently has been extremely challenging. I keep crying everyday no matter what I do, I’m struggling to adapt and fit in.

Any advice to overcome this?

    20 years ago I moved to USA to be with my husband

    You asked for advice. My advice: be honest with yourself about what is root of your unhappiness and how big is your problem.

    You don’t feel depressed “all the time” . You just came 4 days ago. This is unhelpful exaggeration

    You say that you don’t expect for this problem to get better. If you truly honest with yourself and you don’t expect to enjoy your life in USA than the only possible solution is to leave USA.

    So it is very important for you to honestly and without exaggeration to decide for yourself if it is impossible for you to enjoy your life in USA.
