Farida is experiencing culture shock, which is a common psychological and emotional experience of disorientation, confusion, and sometimes anxiety that people may feel when they move to a new cultural environment. It can happen when people move to a new country or region, or even in a different part of their own country. It is a normal and often temporary response to the unfamiliarity of a new culture, language, customs and behaviors.
