This question is rather specific, so I know it’s not going to get many answers, but any answer is appreciated.

I’m thinking about living alone, but I’m worried about getting certain issues. I’ve already talked about it to my doctor, but I also wanted to get answers from people who have went through it.

    Are you able/willing to ask for help when you need it? That’s always been an issue for me, I’m not alone but have a hard head and push myself too far way too often.

      My parents usually don’t help me very much with it, but maybe if I’m alone, they’ll be slightly more worried.

      As for friends, I’m willing to ask for help when things get really bad. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to ask for help, since they will probably live in another building. It would be quite troublesome to ask them to go to my house.

      As for strangers/acquaintances, I’m very scared of asking them for help. I would rather avoid being in a situation where I would need to, but I know it’s bound to happen at some point if I’m not careful enough. So I ask for advice.

        You may want to write down your pros and cons, and try to pre plan for the rough spots. You know your limitations the best.
