I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, I'll delete if its not. I'm a 34 year goony gently caress who's been living at home my whole life. I had a lovely job for a long time but was unemployed for a few years due to COVID. My mental health was destroyed for a while, but now I have job now and am moving out for the first time. I do know how to cook and am able to use some tools. I'd appreciate some tips and things you wish you knew your first time.

My bad I should've left more info. Fortunately, I have a dear family member who will gifting me by paying the deposit. I make $2600/month (after taxes) and my rent will be $1000 and probably $200-ish for bills (extremely high estimation) for a studio apartment. I work from home and I own an ebike. There's also groceries stores nearby. I realize I am in a way better position than most people, its just that I'm starting to freakout while I realize I need to call and connect utilities.

Very excited to try meal-prepping. Sorry to e/n this place up, but I'm finally getting away from a lovely home and unstable family. I already dropped off the first two boxes and don't have too much more to pack. I threw out 20+ years of crap and it felt so good. Finally able to have a savings account, 401k, invest, etc. Good luck to everyone out there, its very exciting times.

Yeah lol, I jumped the gun at $200. I actually signed up for all the utilities a couple days after that post. Electricity - will know after first bill but probably $150+ Internet - $75 (cell phone included) Gas - will know after first bill, but in the home I'm leaving its usually $30. I live in a hot climate so don't need to use heater. Water - free Hulu/Disney+ - $20 Still doable and fine for me
