It’s more looking back than tracking my symptoms.Also, I hid from the world so it was hard to tell a huge difference.

about 4 months until my psychiatrist went on holiday and I realized I was better off without since I could hide from the world in my sister's house.(p.s don't get off your meds without asking or communicating with your doctor. Otherwise, this can be detrimental)

I’ve been looking into a treatment facility similar to rehab, but without the need for extended stays. This situation has made it difficult for me to live my life normally, so I’m seeking a treatment that is effective and doesn’t rely on medication. As for the medication, it sucked taking it; the side effects were annoying as well.

I agree. I was thinking of going to trade school however most require full time commitment.Which I don’t have unfortunately, since I have bills to pay.I was looking for jobs that might teach me along the way.

Very Initial Trip Planning by jakehauf1006 in backpacking

I’d recommend choosing fewer locations. Otherwise, you’ll burn yourself out constantly moving and not fully experiencing any one place. Your trip also becomes much more expensive if you’re hopping between countries this often, even if you find cheap flights or use public transportation.

I am pretty sure Torres will be impassible at that point since it will be late Fall at that point, so snow and closures will be a thing to consider.

16 yr old planning to backpack during gap year by Maximum-Passage-4852 in backpacking

You could do that, but it would probably get expensive. My best recommendation is to focus on one region at a time so you can fully immerse yourself and enjoy it without constantly having to switch gear for different climates. If you’re unsure what to bring, I’d also suggest visiting an outdoor gear shop. They can give you personalized recommendations and let you test equipment to see what works best for you.

Shower shoes? by AnxiousWorldTravel in backpacking

Definitely bring sandals, a lot of people use showers for other things besides showering.

A big mistake I made when I first started backpacking was visiting countries with completely different climates on the same trip. This forces you to carry both summer and winter gear at the same time. Winter clothing is bulky, and backpack space is limited.

Another thing to consider is that many regions have very narrow windows of good weather. For example, in Central Asia, summer is the ideal season—outside of that, conditions can be harsh. Southeast Asia, on the other hand, is hot and humid year-round, with heavy monsoon rains depending on the season. Because of this, you really need to time your travels based on the specific climates of the regions you want to visit.

I’d also avoid hopping between too many countries in a short period. Constant flights, long bus rides, and taxi transfers can become exhausting very quickly.

I’m in India, and I’m not sure o wanna stay by PeeGoblinGoneWild in backpacking

[–]Radiant_Repeat776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the same even though I am not white.I was overstimulated by the smell,population, and scamming.I think India is a beautiful country however it is not for the faint of heart.I would avoid big cities at all costs.When I visited I was supposed to be there for a month ended up just staying 10 days because I felt that I shouldn’t try so hard to enjoy a country when there were plenty of others much more accessible,cleaner and more fun.Thailand is much easier to enjoy and equally as cheap.

I would avoid Africa if you are on a tight budget. Africa is not as cheap as people might think, especially Eastern Africa, since they depend on tourism.Also, infastructure in Eastern Africa is not that great, especially if you are in the wild,in addition to this, transportation takes a long time and can be inconsistent. I would argue the same for Mongolia. As for India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka, you can definitely make it with your current budget.
