I have advised my father that I am of the opinion that there may be another country out there somewhere that might suit me better than the United States these days.
I'm not saying that I'm literally incapable of living here -- I can live under almost any conditions if I must -- but I'm starting to wonder if I might find some other place more hospitable.
Towards this end, my father suggested I find a place and he'd try to help me take a short trip there -- just to get a feel for the place. I'm not sure if this is an attempt on his part to get me to be more extroverted or what, but I think I'll probably take him up on the offer after I research likely nations.
Be wary of the spice of life
I am speaking from a lot of experience here
It doesn't matter what the significant changes is
A new relationship
A new job
A new location
A new hobby
They will all seem like the answer to your problem in the short term. In fact, psychologically they can even be a temporary cure for situational depression. The trouble begins when the newness wears off.
I am not saying not to visit another country or even not to move there. What I am saying is that you need to force yourself into the frame of mind of how will you feel about the place when the honeymoon is over.
The little things we think we can overlook because of how happy something makes us will be the same things we are complaining about a year from now.
Good luck in any decision you make - even if that is to move to sunny Arizona
