Feeling Homesick, just want to cry

I'm so homesick.. idk what to do.. even if I sit idle for like 2 min , I start crying, even in public places... I am living away from my house for the first time in my life.. I want to go home ... I don't have friends in my office so I'm all lonely only .. I just want to cry 😭😭

Hey dude, cheer up. Happens to a lot of people. The first day of 11th class felt the same for me. Being away from home for the first time...happens. Had to rewire the brain just to cope up with that. Been away from home for almost 8 years now...just learn what triggers u, how to handle it and what works for you...and cry if u want to but not in public places...don't make that ur weakness...cuz being away from home makes visiting home special...that feeling is legendary...achche din aayenge...sabr rakho

Heyyy.. Firstly there's nothing wrong with crying.. It's human.. It's very easy to feel isolated in a new city where you don't know anyone and office isn't exactly the place where you will make friends very easily (it does happen but building trust in a corporate environment should be given time before moving from colleagues to friends)... But know that you're not alone in this feeling.. Almost everyone feels this.. It's universal and natural. Do things that you can enjoy on your own.. Exercising or watching comedy TV.. Maybe join a weekend class to meet people with similar interest like pottery, dance, photography etc etc if you can afford it. Remember why you left your hometown in the first place, use it as both re-motivation as well as a consolation as to why it's okay to grind it out initially because it'll be worth it soon. Also, you can work towards saving for a trip back home or inviting am out of town friend to your city... That will pump out those happy hormones.

Hang in there.. If the good days didn't last.. The bad days won't. 🏋️

Give it time...over time you will gather the strength to recognise that this is necessary and you will adjust...

I moved to Pune in 2022 after covid first time out of home. It takes time... enjoy your time in office, try to get along with local pune people in offixe and ask them places to go and hangout or see you can mingle with them.

After 3 years, believe me i can pune is the the city i crave to go back to. Do solo small trips around pune, if you get someone or some groups later on.. go treks and areas around like matheran, lonavala, mahableshwar.

There's lot to explore around pune. Believe once youll statt loving that city, there's no going back.

Every change feels weird at the beginning but thats when you know things are changing.

Yeah but it's too long like it has 1k+ episode and it's still running... And moreover l don't like the animation of the starting episode... I have tried watching it and have watched the first 4-5 episodes... But to fight the boredom and ease my mind I think I'll give it try again if nothing works out for me... And plz share the link of onepiece too 😅

bro you have a reason for every suggestion, I know it is hard first, I have moved to punjab for the first time being away from home and it is fine you're the man of the house, today or tomorrow you have to do this, don't say you're Introvert
I am also an Introvert, I don't like to have relatives or too many people even in my home when I am young. but trust me being an introvert is a decrease in my opinion it didn't do any good in my life, I am 27 now
and I regret being an introvert all this time. I have seen people who are able to initiate communication out of anything to complete strangers and doing far better in life. Try to make friends in ofc, even with me we can meet as well.

for One Peice
try till some 15 episodes and you'll love it, you can watch it in Crunchy roll or Hi anime

Time fixes a lot of things. You'll make a friends circle at lunch or at your desk. Cheer up. Keep interacting. You'll get there

Bro.. of you are in early 20s please read this. Even i was in the same position while i joined my first company. I was away from my home for the first time. Due to this low feeling i use to travel weekly to my native, which affected my overall productivity. Even i was crying and thinking about home every 2 mins where I’m not able to concentrate more on work. I never hanged out with friends during weekend, No parties… don’t know how to speak with girls,, wasted my 20s.. at that time i thought going to home weekly my only priority..

Now I’m married, having a kid and regretting that i missed staying away from home & having friends… Staying alone gives you a freedom rather than staying with family..

You have only one life.. don’t waste it..
