is it weird to get an air bnb in the city my parents live in bc i can't stand them

6 posts in this topic

i already made a related post in the mental health section outlining that i am getting triggered a lot by my parents, and that more often than not, this is causing me a lot of emotional distress. 

for the next two weeks, i'll be doing an internship near the city where my parents live. i had planned on staying with them, but right now i am debating whether to get an air bnb instead... i am going back and forth, having a hard time deciding. 

i know the internship itself will be stressful, and even more so with me contemplating my future in the meantime, and even more so with my dad turning on the radio at 6.30 in the morning, our every interactions being full of some minor or major form of hatred, and on and on, and whatever he does at 9:30, 10:30 at night. so far, i was barely getting by and this was with me having my parents' working hours to myself to "recharge"...but even so, i was quite unwell. i can't imagine things going well when i'll be at work, too, come home exhausted and have zero time without being exposed to a triggering, anxiety-inducing environment.

there's the financial aspect, of course, but i also wonder how much my peace of mind is worth to me (a lot). 

it would be really cool if somebody could help me sort through this. 

 

i've also debated simply cancelling the internship, but out of all of my options, i feel like that would be the saddest.

Go live alone. Make this your priority for the next year.

No matter where you work, you need your own place and independence.

yes, i have lived alone for five years... i'm just in between places right now and having placements in different cities, but i'm trying to find a new flat by April. 

 

...my parents paid for my apartment and living costs, though. i should achieve some form of financial independence so that they'll have less of a say about my life.
