Hi Nicole, it’s okay to feel a bit uncomfortable in your new surroundings (lots of people would be just the same) and it seems like you just need to go a little slower in feeling more relaxed in your new town. I wish you all the very best in working this out yourself and being able to congratulate yourself on not seeing a therapist. Your boyfriend sounds like he’s there for you which is fantastic. When life becomes challenging, it’s very rewarding dealing with the problem and being able to move on, confident that you’re a capable young lady developing skills which will hold you in good stead for the rest of your life. Good luck!
