The more you are attached to something, the harder it is for you to cope. If visa situation doesn't work out, be positive about the alternative: going back to another country or home country and start your life there. Since people don't want to focus on alternatives, they get depressed.

you are absolutely right, there is always a choice, but some choices are bad and they are at the end of your choice list, so deep that you don't even consider it anymore as an option.
