Stop fucking binge drinking then. You have absolutely no reason to be doing that. You are young, have a good job, are trying to pass an incredibly hard exam. You think moving to a new place is going to help your binge drinking? Habits are habits until you make the change. Stop feeling sorry for your self mayne and go out there pass the exam, sit tight for another year, and then move out. It will be for the better. Also stop binge drinking.

I'm now 18 months into this and have two exams done, but am pretty unhappy living in my hometown. Do you think I should just grin and bare it until I pass or GTFO now?

@EY1 I did stop binge drinking. My life is pretty boring without it. I do think that living at home does affect my studying though. There are too many distractions so I try to go to the library but that doesn't always work either.

Would have saved $15,000 if I had just stayed home a year 😭
