Living in the city can get really frustrating at times. There’s a lot of noise and traffic that constantly overwhelms my senses. No matter where I go in a metropolitan city, I feel like I’m constantly surrounded by other people and there’s no escape. For someone with chronic anxiety like myself, living in the city can get overwhelming really quickly. There was always a lot of shouting and screaming too. At one point I was living next to a couple who fought all of the time with long bouts of screaming and wailing coming from their unit. I finally decided I had enough when the cops were called because he was threatening to shoot her and himself in a psychotic rage. It was a terrifying situation and I kept worrying bullets would fly through the wall and kill me in my apartment. I left the city a week later to live with my cousin in the countryside. I loved it so much that I vowed to eventually live in a rural environment someday. Unfortunately, I ended up in suburbia when I got married and decided to create a family. We have a great house with a good heating and cooling system, however I still crave the countryside. I go out hiking when temperatures aren’t too hot, and it’s always a nice experience. I can get away from the air conditioned house for a little while to clear my head. I don’t mind all of the heat outside if there’s a good breeze to counteract everything. Then I can return home and cool off with the air conditioner.
