Me and my boyfriend are together for 4,5 years (out of which about 4 months we were apart). it is important to notice that at the beginning of our relationship (approx.1 year ) my dad passed away who I was very close to and what significantly changed out relationship.
For about 1,5 year I am living in another city (1,5 hour drive where we used to live), as I found a job there. But after this time, I am feeling lonely, burnt out (I really dislike this job) and anxious. I am "back to life" on the weekends when we are back together, but Mon - Fri is very difficult for me. I am stressed at work and I have no outlet after office hours ( I am rather shy person and I made few friends, but they are committed to their family life more than friendships).
I want to go back to our town, take some time calming down and figuring out the next step, as it seems that the career I chose is not what makes me happy. In the same time, my boyfriend says that I should not go back without any job.
I don't have savings ( but I will be given 3 month salaries on my leave ) and I know that it would be more responsible to move back with the job... but my psychological state kills me... and I am becoming a person that I really don't like, as the whole situation is very challenging. As I said, 3 years ago my dad passed away so I feel that I don't have anyone to talk to and the loneliness here is overwhelming.
How can I talk to my boyfriend to make him understand how difficult ( it is close to not possible to bear anymore...) it is for me?
How to discuss very difficult (and personal) matter with the loved one?

Im very sorry about your dad, but your job makes you feel more frustrated. ( i hope this is what you asked) but you seem young and when your young, you should take it a little easier on your life. Maybe there is another job that might be more comfortable and closer to your home town. ALSO if your bf is the only person you can talk, the you should really do. I know its scary but he might actually help. Also take your time, but dont take too long. Give yourself cup of tea and try to chat with him and tell him what bothers you so much and see if he will give you advice. REMEMBER TAKE YOUR TIME, DONT RUSH
