geographical

relocating in the hopes of solving or avoiding a life problem. Running away from something. Very commonly employed by active alcoholics who (falsely) believe that moving will solve their drinking problem.

"Man, I can't stand my pathetic life. I'm going to move to Chicago."

"Dude, are you sure you're not just doing a geographical? Will moving really solve your problems or will you just recreate your pathetic life in a new city?"
