He just came 1 year ago, works with my father as gardener. he is 18. Now that he goes to english school , he made friends , and is so happy learning . now he even started a new computer /internet course for beginners. He is so excited. But me? 26, depressed, no friends.. and even though i have opportunities to meet and i'm meeting some foreigners recently, i still don't feel like i'm worth it.. i feel i'm c*ap. Why is he able to be so happy and i feel like worthless?

dont base your life on your cousins. maybe he is a little more outgoing than you and that is why he has more friends. just relax and let loose.....talk to people, get to know them. and in no time you will have as much a social life as him.

It sounds as if you might be suffering from depression. Have you considered seeing a professional couselor to find out why you have no interests or motivation? At 26, the world should be your "oyster" and you should be enjoying yourself. If you have depression, it's not just something that you can 'shake off". You need to talk to someone. In your cousin's case, he is excited about being in this country and is making the most of the opportunities given to him.

His time in this country doesn't have as much to do with his happiness as you think...it is an inner decision. You need to focus on things that make you happy that you can achieve now and set goals for in the future. Start off small and decide to be a happy person. Don't be jealous of someone else's happiness...get some yourself... and be happy for your cousin's happines...there is a place to start!!

He is younger than you for a start and it is all about the opportunities we make for ourselves. Get out and about into the public sector and make friends, go places and have a good time.
You will never have a happening social life sitting on the net waiting for one to fall into your lap. Head to a local pub or club and join in the fun!

Maybe because he is grateful for the opportunity he has been given and is taking advantage of it all, as he should be. But you are a different person. Maybe going through a depression.
Its apples and oranges. One doesnt have anything to do with the other.

He is making all the right choices I bet you in the morning before he jumps out of bed he chooses to be happy for the day and you on the other hand choose to be sad and depressed.Good choices creates good moods and good moods creates great attitudes so what I am trying ton tell you is change your way of thinking

Because he has a better attitude about life than you.
Your taking everything for granted and your just not enjoying life.
I really think that foreigners take advantage of life when in a better situation then others who are use to having it easy.
Now stop feeling sorry about yourself and get a life.

they don't opt for to bypass to college and artwork not common. Uneducated anybody is greater probable to have financial issues. In Mexico, in case you do not have an education, you will in simple terms have adequate to consume and pay lease. yet here, the minimum salary could desire to purchase greater stuff; that's a greater effectual existence. human beings from many different countries do whinge and that they have got it not common. it quite is in simple terms that they could could desire to bypass by using Mexico or Canada to be waiting to bypass illegally. And Mexico and Canada have not common rules. So its quite common (not plenty now) to bypass from Mexico.

i think he has a better social life because he has come to a new country and he's more comfortable here than in Mexico, and maybe in Mexico he had a bad life and he could be improving here.

Because you need to evaluate your life and do the things that make you happy. You sound very unhappy.
