I finally found a job so I am going to move out of my parents’ house soon, in order to live in the large city where the job is located with my gf. I should be happy about finally becoming independent and being able to see her every day, however I only feel dread about the transition, the lack of free time for my interests (probably intensified due to my shit executive functioning) and the fact that I will miss my family. How did you handle such a transition?
Uncritical support!!
My dad doesn’t do anything quite that bad that I know of, but I have a perpetual rep for being “argumentative”, i.e. I actually know about shit I talk about, so most people I know tend to walk on eggshells when they sense the spirit of Mao arising within me :)
