I have a belief that all beliefs have to be supported by their environment. If your environment no longer supports that belief, you either change or you suffer.
Moving out on your own is one of the biggest changes in environments. There's a huge difference between doing the laundry and cleaning the toilet because your parents tell you to and doing so because no one else is going to do it for you. You start realizing there's a lot of stupid, menial, day-to-day upkeep things that no one else is going to do for you. So you have to change your how you view those things in order to be able to do them every week without going bonkers. Fighting entropy is a constant endeavor when you're out on your own and takes up a good portion of your life.
When I moved out on my own at 19, what changed about me the most was that I stopped worrying about life meaning or life purpose and what I was going to do for the rest of my life. It wasn't that important anymore because the constancy of having to keep up with entropy. I also took a less me vs them point of view towards life because everyone experiences entropy and that most people have to figure out a way to be okay with it and deal with it because they'll be doing it for the rest of their lives.
So how did you change after you moved out? Did you have any changes in values or beliefs on how you viewed your world and your life? Did you have any beliefs that no longer applied now that your environment had changed?
