OMG, I am not crazy for thinking that something is wrong with me because I don't feel fully acclimated yet! I arrived here on June 16 with my dog to be with my fiancé. I had no reservations (and still don't) about choosing the UK as our home country. We met, fell in love, got engaged. Once we choose the UK, I put my house on the market in America, sold a majority of my belongings, quit my stressful job of 16 years and moved all within a few months. It was a whirlwind to say the least. Just the other day I woke up at 6:45 (which I do every day to take care of my dog while my fiancé gets ready for work) had to go back to bed and slept almost until noon! I never do that. I don't do naps yet I have found myself taking several of them a week. After the jet lag, I felt a renewed sense of energy but that comes and goes now. I am not working yet or driving but I plan to be doing both within a few months. I have my eye on a certain organization I want to work at and when a position pops up that is up my alley, I hope to get my foot in the door. And I have now contacted someone for driving lessons. I am doing volunteer work in America from here so it does take up some time and energy during the day/evening. While learning new things in a new country can be fun and exciting, I feel like it also takes up a bit of energy and feels overwhelming at times
Just today my fiancé's mother asked if I had found a job yet and is wondering what I am doing during the day... We laughed and I told him to tell her that I am sitting at home eating bon bons
lol...
Has anyone used those SAD lamps and do they help at all?
Bye for now,
Nikki
