I finally found a job so I am going to move out of my parents' house soon, in order to live in the large city where the job is located with my gf. I should be happy about finally becoming independent and being able to see her every day, however I only feel dread about the transition, the lack of free time for my interests (probably intensified due to my shit executive functioning) and the fact that I will miss my family. How did you handle such a transition?

    I don't see that as very likely unless you suddenly become a multi-millionaire and your class interests change. I would say most jobs tend to radicalize you further...instead of deradicalizing you.

      The higher in my career I get and the more rich people I deal with the more radicalized I become

        Yup. My second job was doing IT for hedge funds. That was a formative period for me. Vile, vile people.
