Hello,

Expatriation can be a fun and exciting adventure, but it can also be a bit lonely at times. Please share with us some tips for dealing with loneliness.

What are some potential factors that lead to loneliness when moving to Bahrain?

How do you deal with feelings of loneliness?

Is it easy to expand or create a social network in Bahrain?

Are there any activities or events that encourage social meet ups and networking opportunities?

Thank you for sharing your experience,

Priscilla

yes thats true most of the time you feel loneliness because here the life is like working life every morning get up had breakfast and go to work then in the night come back and sleep no time to spend with friends and even if you are free your friends will be busy am living here about to 9 years now only one or two times i enjoyed with friends its very difficult thing to see every thing same every day nothing change

Sometimes, because of lonliness you start to hate the place you are in...

It's true. This is because due to the same cycle of routine as we are all bound in a working culture.
Even people who have families can feel the same due to this fact,  not because they are bad. It's all about life style. It even pushes people to depression upon facing challenges, accompanied by sleeplessness.

I have combined my week with a little workout,  massage at times, drive alone listening to music..go for a drink alone once a while, and praying as they say when no one is for you God is for you. Life goes on.

why dont we create a group and create our own moments by staying some time together

shahidshamweel

what i meant is to make a group like school mates and set a place to be together in our free timings which will be suitable to all of us any garden or any place those who dont have transports we will pick and drop and make a good bounding same as we are having in our countries eating , playing , helping and joking well if you all are interested or anyone then lets start changing our lives with good and clean friendship well am sharing my whatsapp number and trusting you all to be my friends the number is ****

Yes, it can get to you if you dont have much of a social circle... And sometimes, it does get difficult to pick up the threads and start all over...

Add each other as Contacts and then subsequently create a closed email group to ensure privacy?
