Should I give this a try or head home?!


Question: Should I give this a try or head home.?
so recently I graduated in August and have been feeling very obsessed about finding a job etc, because without structure I am very unproductive. I've been living at home since graduation which was very irritating because I have a big family and I like my space. Anyways, as the job search continued I couldn't find anything in my city so I started looking out of state becasue it seemed very glorified and independent to move somewhere and sort of "establish a new identity". Anyways, I applied for some psitions in Boston and decided to fly up and interview for a job. I was given a good offer and specualted about it for nearly a week because it was a big decision to relocate away from family, friends, and a boyfriend all for a job. I couldn't decide if I wanted to get away from my life, or simply try something new to expand my horizons. A big part of me wanted to get away....actually a REALLY big part. I wanted to be away from my family because I was so sick of being home and arguing with my older brother(who has a mental illness and is home ALLLLLL day long). Anyways, so it seems pretty obvious that I'm trying to get away from a lot of situations that were making me quite uncomfortable and I was struggling to deal with them. Another part of me was saying I could simply move out of the house, find a temporary job until I found what I really wanted to do, and take the pre-requisite classes in state(less $$) for physical therapy school in about a year or so. A lot of things drove me to leave the state and move to Boston....so here I am now only about a week into it and the job is okay but I still feel so guilty for being here. I feel like I get bored at the job and want to leave after a few hours...so why the hell did I moveall the way up here for this.? I know you can never escape your feelings and I knew that when I decided to come up here. I'm just scared to get too involved with anything...like I feel guilty for being here ebcause my bf really would rather me be in Atlanta and a part of me would too; but isnt this what independence is.? Trying to take care of yourself without any crutches around. I just felt rushed to get out and prove myself to the world but maybe it wasn't the best idea. My whole plan was to finish my pre-req's next semester so I can apply for PT school and start school in about a year or so. But now that I'm up here, working at a PT clinic full time, than I won't have time to take classes next semester plus it would be very expensive out of state. SO....as I ramble on here this is my main issue...should I try and stick it out and give this some time...not worrying so much about the future. Or should I be honest with my employer and go back home, find an appt, job, begin classes next semester and just be honest with myself. I am pretty much training at the job right now to work at another location they are opening in about a month, a clinic where i will be working alone with the therapist. So it feels like I need to make a decision now because I dont want to screw them over right before they open the clinic and than have no one to help out the therapist. Thanks for any insight!

Answers:
wow! You sound really confused! Since you're already where you are, why not stick it out and do a little net-working there.? Don't feel guilty for leaving home, it's a natural progression, and one that's going to happen anyway. (there's no such time as the 'perfect time'). Ask some of your co-workers, ar even your employer about extra courses, night schools, ect. Learn something while you're there before running home shouting "It's too hard!" Give it a time limit, (6 mo - 12 mo), whatever you're comfortable with, then get busy and make an honest effort to watch, listen and learn. You may find success, at the very least, you will have 'life experience'. Good luck, and have a little faith in yourself!!!Health Question & Answer
