for me personally, it’s by working overtime and having side gigs. shit sucks and i don’t recommend, stay at home and save as much as you can until you feel safe enough financially to move out. unless your family is worse.

Yeah I recently had to move back in with my parents. Both of my siblings still live at home. It's been HELL, but I refuse to live like that again. I'm not moving back out until I'm somewhat certain I can live somewhere without being in constant financial severe crisis. I'm nervous tho bc now I work 24/7+grad school and I'm already financially strained. And I'm not even paying rent or utilities.I literally can't work more than I already do, there's no room for even extra side-gigs. I'm scared 😭
