feeling really scared
UPDATE-
Sorry to disappoint everyone but I made the tough decision to go home. I could feel myself slipping into a dark space mentally and that’s not something I can afford to let myself do again.
Maybe I needed to start off smaller. I really jumped into the deep end with this thinking it would be good for me but alas, it wasn’t for me. Booking that flight home filled me with instant relief to be honest. Wish I could’ve been tougher but I don’t think it’s in me.
I've just started a 3 month solo trip around europe (from Australia) and not even a week in I feel overwhelmingly scared and alone... too nervous to do anything. I mean anything. Too scared to even go to a restaurant by myself. Feel like I want to just go home which would be such a waste...
