I’ve always been very open about it, but for those who don’t know might be surprised. First time I traveled alone I was heart broken after being cheated on by the guy I had bought the trip I was going on alone instead, to I felt pretty shit..

Oh dear, you are a star.

I realized my time was limited and that I needed to make the most out of it without stressing myself out (cramming too much in one day so that I couldn't enjoy it). This was everything I needed to get out of that dip and enjoy traveling again to the fullest. You have no reason to be depressed.

What the fuck had I been on that made me feel like this? Comment below or send me an email at evelina (@) utterdahl.se. But when I woke up the next day I felt this weird feeling I hadn’t felt before. Elle. It brings me in touch with my best and truest self. When you're traveling you go and try to visit the off the beaten path type of places and when you come home it's same old same old until you realize that you're in the off the beaten path place you'd die to see if you were from another country. I just came across your site after googling backpacking in Ukraine.I have to say your posts are very inspiring and well written.I sometimes struggle to concentrate while reading ,however I find the way you write very engaging.It is great to see someone living a lifestyle I would also love to have,it makes you believe its possible.good luck with your travels. The job I just started was incredibly stressful. No, fuck that, you are worth everything. I spent too much time in my life to please others, but now when I say no I mean it and I stick to it. Same here. So now I’m back home, working with a psychiatrist to help me get my medications sorted, to get healthy routines in place so I can stay healthy and fit while I travel, and treat myself with the self-love that I always tell others to have – but often forget for myself.

If you feel suicidal or have hit a low, please reach out to a friend, family member or a group such as the Samaritans UK 116 123 or a similar local agency, trust me, they help. Self-motivation is the biggest problem I face too when I am depressed. Sorry, your blog cannot share posts by email. And trust me, it will get better! The rollercoaster of everything brought me to this moment, and even with all the pain, I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you so much for sharing!❤️. I feel solo travel often makes me question so many of my life choices, having that much time alone in your own company to think everything out can be quite scary! Maybe if I go to the most beautiful mountains in France, then maybe I will be happy. Eventually, I made new friends and had grown to to think of my host family as my own, so that there was always someone to share my experiences with. I’m happy, but not stable; I’m privileged but aware. Mental health and depression is a such a taboo we don’t talk about it enough. Even the shitty people I met along the way taught me something about myself: about my resilience and stubbornness, about my dogged belief that despite the bad apples, the world is still filled with good people, and that it’s worth fighting for. Alongside traveling I also went to a therapist for a couple of years. Du är en förebild. It’s such a physical, visceral sensation: that choking feeling, the coiling stomach, the alienation you feel from your own brain. When the day came to take the one-way flight to Indonesia I knew this had to be more than a holiday; I knew it had to be my saviour. In my phd my supervisor has been very mean to me throughout these years, shattering my low self esteem.

Hopefully soon I’ll execute that button … I hung out at hostels a few times, when I met people who were staying at one, but I didn’t actually stay at one – and that made a huge difference. I don’t even want to go home, really. And that is a sign that I need to slow down. But depression is so much harder to suss out. But life, money, the normal, it was all standing in my way. It happened right when I was ready to be promoted in a big company. To answer the question of the post, No, I don’t think travel can cure depression. Stop dwelling on negative thoughts. Thank you so much Joshua, you have no idea how happy your words make me! Most of the time I won’t be bothered by them at all, but during times when I am very stressed, they pop up again. This in order to get my sh** back together to do exactly what I love and to be able to make new friends to have a decent conversation with. Or chase any other dreams they may have.
