I left home when I was around 25. The only reason I didn't leave sooner was so that I could finish school and get a real job and be able to make it on my own. I had a decent relationship with my mom to so I stayed with her as long as we could stand each other.

Something inside me made me feel that I needed to be on my own and I wanted the freedom to come and go as I chose without being held to a curfew. I also was tired of being told what to do, and when to do it.

I received much help from family and friends with moving all my stuff to my new place and every penny I earned I spent wisely. Having any kind of job that helps keep the cash coming in, even if you have to work two jobs for awhile pays off in the long run.
