Hi everyone.
I am really depressed right now and coming to Reddit to seek for advice.
My mum passed away last year, and after she’s gone, my life doesn’t feel the same anymore.
It’s been a year now, and still I can feel the hollow within.
My grandma is 89 now, and mum always mentioned about her all the time. Mum is always caring for other people, apart from herself. She is always caring for the other. But she’s too tired now.
I think the responsibility to take care of my grandma shifts to me. Grandpa passed away long time ago before my birth. And grandma is currently living alone.
Obviously I am working in the uk, and grandma is back in hometown in Asia.
This makes me wanna go back to hometown to take care of my grandma from time to time.
I was raised in the uk and I don’t have many friends back in hometown. I don’t really want to apply for a job back in hometown, due to a difference in work culture and language issue.
I am currently working inside an office, but due to some confidential documents, I won’t be able to work overseas.
I am reaching out for advice, to see what kind of job can allow me to sign a uk contract and allow overseas working abroad. My home is still in the uk but I’m hoping to go back to hometown from time to time and take care of grandma for one or two months. Then come back to the uk for a few months.
I have been emotionally drained and struggling in the past 12 months and still I am.
Please, if anyone has any suggestions, please share with me.
Thank you very much for your support.
