I loved your post about living alone.. do you have any more advice ? Any would be appreciated xx
Hii most of what I thought of as advice i put in that post and I'm glad you liked it.
Honestly living alone sucks majorly only when you're sick, like that's when you miss your home the most. So keep the minor meds ready like cough syrup, diarrhoea meds, paracetamol etc. Ginger juice works great for nausea. Learn atleast dalkhichdi. Sure you'll be sick, but you'll be able to take care of yourself and that makes matters slightly easier.
I would also give suggestions to make small hanging out plans with friends. Just...movie and popcorn nights at home, small party to celebrate something stupid, doing yoga with a buddy, you've learned to cook something new and want someone to share it, drawing stupid shit together. Get a white board to make lists and put down reminders.
Living alone doesn't necessarily mean you have to take care of everything by yourself and you need to know everything for it. Living alone mostly means learning how to ask for help and knowing the right people to ask for help. Living alone means the responsibility of building a support system around you falls on you instead of your family. And that's daunting, understandably. But you figure it out. You too become part of someone else's support system. When you start living by yourself, truly that's the correct time to make new friends around you.
