Does anyone else find Tranquility Lane a bit stressful?

I think it might've been because I had no PipBoy. I felt some loss of control. So after I figured out that I'd need to activate those items in the abandoned house I looked up exactly what order to use, and chose the Chinese Invasion even though it would be out of character for my LW to risk killing innocent people. I'll say he was stressed too. He'd rather risk death than stay trapped in Tranquility Lane.
