On the down side, I did not have consistency or stability with long term relationships and had no one to model that.
Oh no my story isn’t difficult at all, just a regular stuff people experience not being born in the first world countries, I don’t perceive my move as trauma. I just read it somewhere about the emotional impact it could have on people. I’ve no idea what and if it had on me, I am and was too busy living my life. I am trilingual as well.

PS there is also a lot of research on effect of immigration on memory, especially when need to learn new languages. One is more likely to develop memory problems. I wrote a paper on it at some point
Thanks for this!
