Recently i have been thinking alot about doing that.. Packing up somewhere & start life over.. Where no one knows me and i can start over so that i wont get reminded of everything that has happen..
But i m much of a coward to leave all that i have now behind.. but i think given enough consideration and thought i will just do that soon..
It kinda will feel like starting on the first day of school..:)

I did! So, I packed up and transferred to a different location. Started all over, made friends, enjoyed life but missed my old life so I ended up transferring back.
The "new" life I had was definitely better for my social life and better on me psychologically but I didn't have my family, love, or the proper schooling so I came back and once I'm done with school I'll move away to my 'second life' with my love... then that way I'm only going to be without my immediate family but I'll have my social life, love and I'll have my friggin' awesome education to back me up!
I guess it's all about what you're going to give up and what you expect to gain when doing something like that!

I used to feel this way all the time.
If part of your reason for wanting to move is to "move away" from your current problems and situations, this is not likely to be effective. Such things often pop up in the new location.
However, in 1991 I moved from Boston from San Francisco due to a number of factors - most of them good ones, like a new job, but some of them negative ones to get away from. Some of the old problems still followed me, but part of it was quite refreshing.
[One part I still can't explain - I also went from being an "evening person" to a "morning person." It is rare that I get into work past 7:30 am.]
I would suggest that you look at the reasons for wanting to move. If you are moving TOWARDS something, and good things, go for it! If you are trying to move AWAY from things, this might not be as successful.
Good luck!
p.s. My house goes on the market this Sunday (I now live with my husbear) so if you want to run to the SF Bay Area, I can "fix you up". >> rofl with tongue in cheek <<

I'm afraid wherever I went, I'd still have to put up with me.
On one hand I'd like to start over in these more tolerant, "enlightened" times (although the haters have the same degree of malice that they've always had), but I wouldn't want to be a kid again in these days of gangs, drugs and mindless violence and the constant threat of terrorism. How do modern kids survive all that crap?

I was born and raised in California, but moved to Alabama when I turned eighteen. I think it was the best move I ever made. I have learned so much about being independent and about myself. I have meet some of the greatest people and I have dated some greatest guys. I think if want to do it go a head and do it!

I did it because i had to. And quite literally, i started my life over. My mum and mum's fiance both kicked me out from home as i was ts. She didnt want me changing to a woman under her roof, so i was forced out. I packed my stuff up, and having changed some of my details beforehand, and already had my look sorted out, i moved out and left my old self and life behind.

Yes... I often feel that if I picked up and moved... I could go to an area that was far more accepting of my lifestyle and in result live a fuller more meaningful life....

AKA: Pulling a geographic.
It seldome does much, unless you are changing 'you' at the same time.
I did choose to leave my college town, because I had too much of a reputation as a loose drunk-- and I was never going to shake it in that small town.

lol all the time bro. what keeps me going is knowing that if i were to move that it wouldnt change a thing that all of my problems are caused becaues of me and if i did move that the same problems would still be their. its like a dog that has fleas, you can keep on washing it but the problem is still their. you have to get deeper and work on the real problem. my sugestion is to you that you work on your self and make you happy. good luck.
