hating where I’m from Idk

Former Member

idk if I’m the only one that feels like this but I hate where I live and I don’t mean like town or anything, I wish I was born in a different country and it just gets me down sometimes, might be over reacting but still. A lot of people here are like ‘I’m proud to be scottish’ but I’m not I hate it

idk this is pointless but who cares

Ah, that's a shame. I'm sorry you feel that way. It's defo not over reacting if it's something that's bothering you. Do you think there's something that makes you hate being Scottish?

Hey @ems16 I completely understand what you mean.  I’ve felt the same a lot in the past, I  used to dream about moving away not because of the people around me but simply because I didn’t like where I live. You’re certainly not over reacting or being silly. It can feel quite miserable and draining when you don’t like where your environment. 
Hope you don’t mind me asking but have you always felt like this ?

Wish you all the best, hope you have a happy day

Hey. 

That sounds like a hard feeling to shift. Especially if you can’t move. I always like to think about the thing I can’t change and see if I can find any positives about it instead and focus on that. Like being with family ect. It’s hard thing to do though. 

Hope you’re doing okay today
