Meme Therapy Is this why I’m somewhat stable?

So I still live with my parents because I can’t afford to live comfortably in my own country. I feel like my life is somewhat structured because I do a lot of things because I’m in my parent’s house. But I can’t help but think I would be on the right side of I could live by my own means.

As the person who was undiagnosed and moved out of their parents house, I can confirm I am the person on the right side - which was the reason I went for a diagnosis in the first place... When I look back, my controlled environment was both the reason for a lot of stress but also the perfect stress to stay in the somehow functional range
