Dear Aunty Bella,

Please I would love for you to help me post this as it might help my situation. I am a young girl currently working in Canada, I am always so depressed and down because I’m all alone no friends, no family.

All I do is go to work and go back home, sometimes I feel like I’m cursed. I sometimes think about going back home to Nigeria, but I have a very good job I wouldn’t want to lose especially when I’m not guaranteed a job in Nigeria. It’s very hard to just go out by myself, go watch movies alone? Have dinners alone? It’s really really hard. The highest I do is go to malls and just look around.

I feel so isolated and emotionally abandoned ?

Please who is or has been in my situation and how do I deal with loneliness living in a foreign land.
