Culture shock isn’t a clinic term or medical condition. It’s simply a common way to describe the confusing and nervous feelings a person may have after leaving a familiar culture to live in a new and different culture. 51 That can be exciting, but it can also be overwhelming (不可抗拒).
Everyone feels the pressure to fit in at one time or another—whether they’ve lived in the area for days or years. 52 All of your experiences before you came to your new home are part of you, and what makes you special.
Here are a few tips for making sure your new culture doesn’t overpower the old.
Educate people about your culture. Just because you’re the one entering the new culture doesn’t mean you should be the one doing all the learning. Take the opportunity to teacher classmates and new friends about your culture; they may know little about it. 53 Invite them over for traditional dishes from your culture.
Find a support group. You probably left behind good friends and family when you moved, too. You can share experiences.
Keep in touch with home. You probably left behind good friends and family when you moved. If it’s going to be a long time until your next visit, keep in touch. You’ve not only left behind people, but also other things—like your favorite spot to hang out. 54
Remember, the key to getting over your culture shock is understanding the new culture and finding a way to live comfortably within it while keeping true to the parts of your culture they you value.
55 Try not to force yourself to change too fast or to change too many things all at once. You will have your own pace of adjusting.
A. It’s important to be yourself
B. Keep pictures around to remind you of home
C. But the good news is that culture shock is temporary
D. It will also help them to learn more about you in the process.
E. When you move to a new place, you’re bound to face a lot of changes.
F. As long as you find a good combination between old and new, you’ll be fine
G. But don’t feel like you need to change everything about yourself so you can stand out less
