Hey, first off - good on you for being honest with yourself about this. That takes guts, honestly. So many people pretend they're fine and then crumble later. You're already ahead of the game. Here's the thing about fear and new places: it's your brain doing its job. It's screaming "danger!" because everything is unfamiliar. But you know what? That feeling doesn't mean you're weak. It means you're human. Even the people who look super confident are usually faking it at least a little. What helped me when I moved somewhere totally new was breaking it down into tiny steps. Not "I need to conquer this whole new life" but "today I'll just figure out the bus route" or "tomorrow I'll find a decent coffee shop." Small wins build momentum. Before you know it, the scary place becomes just... your place. And about the anxiety pushing you toward depression - that's real, and it's heavy. Don't carry it alone. Maybe find one person you can be honest with, even if it's just a text. Vulnerability isn't weakness; it's how connections form. You want this dream bad enough to walk into fear. That's not a flaw - that's your superpower. Just take it one day at a time, okay? You've got this.
