When a person decides to move to another country, the first thing he thinks about is domestic and financial difficulties.
But in addition to these moments, psychological problems often await immigrants. Let's say right away that this is normal, you should be ready for this, because after a while you will be able to overcome them. Especially if you know what to expect.
We have prepared for you a small list of psychological difficulties that immigrants face.
🔶Loneliness
The first time in another country, you may have a feeling of abandonment. Old friends and acquaintances are a thousand kilometers away, but new ones have not yet appeared and it is not clear where to look for them. Try to be patient and don't despair. Keep in touch with old friends at least online, and you can look for new ones in sports sections, as well as interest clubs.
🔶Easy fatigue and chronic fatigue
At first, you will have a lot of new and varied information. Your brain will literally boil, processing it. Therefore, you will spend a lot more energy. Plus, communication in a foreign language will take a huge amount of resource. Do not be surprised that by the end of the day you will literally fall down!
❗️ During this period, it is important not to forget about taking care of yourself. Physical activity (yoga and running are especially useful), good sleep and regular rest are your faithful helpers.
🔶 Anxiety and fears
Everything new is scary, especially if this new is literally everywhere. Other laws, rules, people… all this will provoke anxiety and fears. If you have the opportunity to turn to assistants, people who are competent in various fields (including bureaucratic ones), then for the sake of your peace of mind, contact them. Recall that taking care of yourself is your first companion in the short term after the move.
🔶Periods of crisis
All immigrants go through periods of crisis, this is a scientifically proven fact👆🏻You will definitely have thoughts that the country does not accept you, and everything around will be in dark colors. Don't despair, this is temporary. The clouds will dissipate, and you will adapt and join the life of a new place.
