This depressed me when I was in US

[@nishantb80]

US is no more as attractive as it use to be 20-30 years ago. Just think about what you need in life to be happy. Back then we didn't have proper Internet, mobile phones, gadgets or fancy cars. Now there's almost everything that you need to spend a decent life in India, unless you are making less than a threshold amount. Within India itself, you have different places that you may or may not like. You have plenty of options now a days.

[@honeysup]

The only question is whether we Indian can afford that decent life with a fancy car etc, as for example an Indian with household monthly income of only Rs 25,000 ($300) falls within top 10% of the population (annual periodic labor survey, Govt Of India), 40% Indian kids are malnourished due to lack of nutrition (as of 2019) and merely ~ 7% Indian citizens has a proper “real” job (3% Govt + 4% Private) (i,e a job that Indian Govt count as a job that pays some benefit), rest just do something or whatever. So that decent life is great for dreaming but in reality it is pretty much nothing but illusion !!

[@nishantb80]

@@honeysup You are somewhat correct. Now, could you please present stats about average US household income, debt, drug problems, obesity etc. ? The point I was trying to make is that there are plenty of opportunities in India unlike the past. Theoretically, there are many points to compare which can be misleading in the true sense of things. There are pros and cons of wherever you live. You need to figure out what works for yourself. For example, a friend of mine was stabbed multiple times in US while doing his student job, but still he stayed. That was his choice. He is doing well there and now it's been 22 years.

Hello. I was born in India and I moved to is with my family when I was a kid. I struggled a lot growing up and did not have much friends because I wasn’t really able to make friends with American people and I always so Indian people or students as my competition. Even other asian people were very competitive and there was no one to help with schooling. My parents also very much struggled. It was definitely very isolating. When I moved out of my home for job, I struggled to make friends and failed, and was very isolated. I got depressed in my teenage years as well during my work. I still feel like I don’t fit in somewhere. It’s so hard because some Indian people are also toxic and American people are also toxic and you don’t know where and when to find the good people.

Yes Indians who come to USA experience a culture shock. One good thing is I had two other room mates one from IIT and one from Banglore. So it helped me not be lonely or left out in USA . Both these were in Masters in electrical engineering. But the moment I graduated from University, and started working I realized in USA it is all individualistic. This means your neighbour don't invite you for dinner. In India if I step into my neighbors house it is like I stepped into my own families house. Now I have retired, my wife passed away , now I think how long can I sustain good health here. No the real quality of live is measured if you live among caring people. Fortunately loneliness has brought about great Revelations in me or maybe I am deceiving myself. In the end when you die you are alone. So I am not affected by loneliness anymore. I use it as an oppurtunity to look into the emptiness,, sometimes even realizing we are all part of this humanity. It is good to educated.. But it is a means for making a living. In the end my Mechanical Engineering degree is of no use. I rather search and be with the sacred. Sometimes even your family and friens become strangers because they appear so disillusioned. I think Buddha missed a point perhaps. He was smart for his times, but did he realize the sacred. Did he give you recipe for sacred. One more thing I would like to add people tell you this kind of person is genius. I don't believe that, I think if I give you a chocolate would you not eat it.

US is not for Papa ki paris. Mom will cook for me. There will be someone to pickup my luggage. Then you are good where you are living. Not just US, take any country, one need to be adaptive to the weather and the lifestyle. Racism is part of every country. People from india face racism in their own country. North Indians face it in down south and South Indians are all madrasis. You will suffer in Chennai if you don’t speak Tamil. North east people are ‘chinkis’. It’s not about the country or the place. It’s all about you. How you look at your surroundings and how adaptive you are is what matters. This is coming from a person who lived in many places in india and outside india.

Plz don't hv expectations of friends to achieve ur mental peace. ppl suffer bcoz they don't realize tht time immemorial, it is their parents, supportive wife and Children who will fill the emotional vaccum and really concerned abt u in this world.Even own brothers and sisters priority change after marriage. So it extremely important to realize this truth and stop having false expectations from outsiders. Very few ppl u will find you genuinely true friends in latter part of life. Bad times will test it true relation with friends. Caring ppl will help u in every possible way and namesake friend will make excuses and shy away. So everyone should not hv exceptations outside his small family. U may this is pessimistic thinking but this is the bitter truth. A successful wealthy man has countless friends whom he himself does not remember but poor man has no friends. So have balanced thinking and dont except anything from other for ur mental peace. Connect with God and it will give peace. Also talking to a good frind with whom u hv gr8 bonding hhelps relieve stress. It is a message for every bro and sis who is feeling lonely in life. Enjoy solitude and peace of mind.

I do not agree about the old lady and the security officers smirk incident. They could have been smiling for anything maybe to keep calm. Rest I agree with many other points.
