Need thoughts / comments / concerns
Hello,
I am 26. I live with my mom and she pays for everything. My rent, a lot of my food, my phone bill, my car, you name it. Let me preface by saying I am very grateful for her. However a big reason why she does this is so she can keep me at home, she does not want me to move out. It’s taken a huge toll on my mental health.
I have a stable job in the suburbs, my coworkers are all older than me and have families, I’m the youngest one in the office and it’s not particularly close. I hate what I do, I feel like my future outlook here is very stagnant. However, in this job market I feel like I should just be grateful that I’m employed at a place that wants me.
Would I be committing life suicide if I quit my job and moved to a city that I actually would want to live in? I feel like I’ve already wasted my 20s living at home with my mom doing nothing, I have no friends pretty much. It was easy to save up money having no expenses, I could survive a couple years with no job but obviously I would look for one. Am I thinking too abruptly? I’d appreciate any thoughts comments and concerns
