I am feeling dejected and a sense of being lost engulfs me. This has been the case for quite some time ( ay be a couple of years) and is aggravating. I am getting afraid of anything and everything. My problem is compounded since my relocation to a place that is about 500 Km away from my family consisting of aged parents and a kid. I am sending this query from Hyderabad in India.
