mate honestly that sounds like you're cutting off your legs to save your toes.

you should take a backpacking holiday in a busy city somewhere (overseas?). If you have fun, try a working-holiday in a new city for a couple weeks. Maybe one you've been thinking of moving to?

just try it on. There's no downside.

I've done this before within the country and ultimately just found it extremely stressful. I could never get comfortable in the AirBNB, I constantly felt like I'd just shown up and invaded someone's apartment.

I absolutely hate traveling, I just want to live somewhere and for it to become home.

You're probably right about the cutting off legs part, though I've simply lost sight of an exit from my current situation. I own a house, I have responsibilities, and I'm burnt out from work. I actually had a plan in place to move before I burnt out, but that fucked up everything.

You need to take a break man. Change something. Fair call if you don’t like travel. Just go live anywhere else for a month. Pick a city and pretend it’s home. Rent your place out. If you like it make it 2 months. If it’s shit you’re just back to square 1, no big deal.

All the best

I don't know if qnt's suggestions are the right ones for you or not (that's for you to decide), but you know what?

I believe in your ability to make a better life for yourself.

You can do this.
