Part 1: Between Two Worlds – The Emotional Strain of Moving Abroad The allure of moving abroad, whether to Canada, the USA, or the UK, is a dream many Indians aspire to. With promises of better career opportunities, financial stability, and a higher quality of life, it seems like the perfect path. But beneath the surface lies an emotional struggle—one that often goes unnoticed. Imagine leaving your close-knit family in India, where evenings are spent sipping chai and sharing stories, to find yourself alone after a long workday in a foreign land. Calls home become bittersweet reminders of what you’re missing—birthdays, weddings, and the comfort of loved ones. The emotional burden grows heavier with every milestone missed. 💬 “Bas thoda aur time” (Just a little more time), we say to family, convincing ourselves and them that the sacrifices are worth it. But the emotional toll of being far from home begins to creep in. The Loneliness of Distance Many Indians face a deep sense of isolation abroad. The warmth of familial bonds is replaced by the cold reality of independence. Professional pressures in unfamiliar workplaces feel overwhelming. Balancing Indian values with Western expectations often leads to an identity crisis. According to studies, South Asian immigrants are 60% less likely to seek mental health support compared to the general Canadian population, largely due to cultural stigma and a lack of understanding. But where do we turn when the weight becomes too much? How do we find someone who truly gets it? 💡 Stay tuned for Part 2, where we explore the need for culturally sensitive mental health support and how tailored services can bridge the gap.
