Moving home can be an existing positive time, but there are several reasons why some find moving emotionally challenging.
One thing is certain about moving house, it is a big life change. Your home is different, and the area might be new. Whilst change is often a good thing it can also be scary. A new location can mean moving far from, friends and family. Until you make new friends, you may feel lonely.
Moving stress can be caused by financial issues, the high cost of legal fees, mortgage or rent deposit, hiring a removal company, buying new furniture and decorating. It takes time to unpack, sort through your belongings and settle in the new home. You may worry about finding enough time from a busy life. Be sure to give yourself plenty of time to adjust to your new situation.
There are several signs that you are not coping well with the emotional challenge of moving. You find making decisions hard and feel unorganised, unable to focus. You feel anxious, stressed and have a negative mindset.
Fortunately, there are ways to cope with the stress of moving. To prevent feeling overwhelmed, make a to-do list and focus on one task at a time. Try and be positive, seeing the move as a fresh start in life with new opportunities.
