Hi @lavina_otara
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It is so helpful to know that this has been what has worked for you. It is so wonderful of you to share this to help other people going through a similar thing.
To anyone reading, different things work for different people. These rules can vary depending on your situation, your circumstances or where you live. For this reason, it is best to seek advice from Centrelink who can advise you. Moving out of home can be quite frightening and stressful, even if it is for the best. It can help to have your own supports to help you figure out some of the changes and details. For example, you might like to talk to a trusted adult, a family member, a teacher, a counsellor or your local GP. We also have an article on moving out of home here which you might find helpful to read.
