Hi. I decided to move. It's going to take me to a place that i will be alone and how to get a job and money ..etc...is causing me to be scared shitless and depressed. I decided to move back to that state because my dog is there. I want to be around her, but doing that i will be going where i would be alone most of the time. I am having a hard time after i made this decision. I have not come up with a plan. Most of my moves, i have not come up with a plan. I have vague ideas. You know that is how it goes. You really don't know until you are there what might happen. This place i am at, i came here a year ago. There was a issue but i came here because of the love of my friend to help me and it was the only option for me. I think it was good move. I learned a lot this year. I was given roof over my head and food and lots of emotional support.

Now, the decision, i made is going to be a struggle. I don't want this. I want to feel it is an adventure. I want to feel it is start of new and wonderful exoerience. I am tired of living in fear.

Please help me someone. I know i posted in the depression section. I don't want to feel horrible anymore. I am going because my dog don't have that much time on earth and i want to be around her. I was not able to give her a home. I was not able to after i left to look for a job and then have her with me,

Please help me someone. How do i get to feel better and have strength? How do those people who do it have it?

Please help me move forward with strength.

I hope you get through this easily! Can you just go take your dog and head back where you are now? Unless you feel the absolute need to move, then I say go for it, and it is alright to be scared, it is a big decision after all. I don't know about finding a new job though, because I'm not at your level of awesomeness yet!

I understand moving is scary. Do you have any family or friends in the new place you plan to go to who can help you? Is there a chance you can take your dog to live with you where you are now?

I wish you all the best. Keep us posted.

Hi eggplantlife,

Practice with tiny tiny decisions as described here

You can use every part of your life as it is now to heal yourself and gain strength and vitality for when you make big decisions. It's fun too.

I hope you find a place you can be at peace.

I would agree with the others about possibly having your dog at where you are at now. Do you like where you are now? Or is there something going on where you are now that makes you want to leave?

I feel like I'm wresting with that myself. I live in a nice area, and been fortunate to live in a place that cools off nicely at night; when everywhere else in the area gets too hot. Also the location at where I am now is great. It's just the neighbors that I have around me are not that great. They keep to themselves and I feel like I'm the only one in my complex that is alone. I feel that my neighbors judge me for being alone.

I had it planned this morning to meet with a Real Estate woman. She never showed up and I thought that we had made an appointment. I called her and she said that I didn't confirm the appointment. I thought that it was weird. I don't remember her telling me I should call to confirm. And besides, I've always felt that it's the salesperson's responsibility to confirm appointments.

I don't know what to tell you. I wish the best for you.
