Yep I have lived in many big cities. Really hate it and it's not good at all for mental health.

We probably have two widely varying definitions of "small town" lol

It's never silly to have a problem that bothers you and talking it out can help. It's another of life's hurdles and if you compartmentalize it and rank it by priority as you just did, it really helps to defeat it.
Like my Bonnie and Clyde comparison earlier.

Yep, a lot of the time it can help a situation, being overly nice. I'd leave it as a last resort with the ones you're worried about, but if they still won't leave you be, just treat them as though they're your best friends in the world, they can say no wrong, and eventually they'll either get fed up with the fact they can't get under your skin, or they'll realize you're a good person and leave you be.
Talking about what's bothering you always helps, always. Don't feel silly, it's never silly to let out the things that are bringing you down. You deserve to be happy, and talking about things helps facilitate that, so no subject is too silly to be talked about
I'm sure you are achieving things. I always think about the little things I achieve during that day, they are important too and they add up and when you count them, you feel better about yourself. For example just things like preparing a meal or getting a small task done at work.
What about your studies, I'm sure you are achieving things in that area.
Just try to take things once task at at time.
And like the others said don't give up. But recognise you are human and can't do everything and sometimes we all need a break.
Sending hugs. x
I hope you know the donkey and an old couple story. People are going to blame us, no matter what we do. It is easier to talk ill of others than doing something worthwhile. A lot of us suffered from job-related issues lately. Let us call it something related to chance or something that will get cured with time. Even if it doesn't we have no choice but to keep a positive outlook and fight the battle.
That's good advice.
Things generally have a way of working out in time but getting through it can be hard.
I hope you're feeling less stressed at the moment, it's a very tricky time for sure.
Just don't. Things will be always be better, how? Hard and smart work. Just do one thing, then another the next day and keep adding and adding. Organize yourself, make yourself do some things that you won't normally do. Try to educate yourself and you will get out of this!
