<human>: **Background** : I was born in a "3rd world Country" into a lower income family. My dad is severely disabled and my mom is not highly educated so growing up, we didn't have enough money to lead a comfortable life. After finishing high school i went to a local college on a scholarship (while working multiple jobs to sustain my family) which helped me land a decent enough job (not high paying but regular stable income). I am not a smart person by any measure but i do work very hard and take pride in the fact that i worked hard all my life just to survive

**Current Situation** : After having lived a life of constant survival and uncertainty, I decided i want to lead a life of aspirations and i realized that the best way to do that is to go to grad school. Higher education in my home country is abysmal, so i applied to Universities in the US for a Masters degree. I got accepted into a good university in New York City with scholarship. 

**Current Problem**: Ever since i got accepted, i have been terrified of going to a first world country where the quality of life is much higher compared to my home country. I don't know anyone in my life who has been to the US before and from my very limited exposure, I feel like i am not equipped to live in the US. I am completely shy and introverted and the possibility of even interacting with the people living there gives me an inferiority complex and anxiety. I feel like i wont be accepted there. I do intend to come back to my home country once i finish my education, so i know its only temporary but still this fear, anxiety and inferior feeling isn't going away. This feeling has gotten worse by day and now i am seriously considering not going at all, which makes me sad.  How do i get myself out of this rut and also any general suggestions/advice  would be deeply appreciated.

I apologize for my poor writing skills and also if this post isn't meant for this subreddit, kindly direct me to a more appropriate forum. Thank you

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: Moving to a new country temporarily for higher education, absolutely terrified and anxious, almost to the point of not going at all.
