Weston had it allā¦ except a clue.
Never paid a bill. Never did laundry. Never had to.
At 27, he finally moved out. Cue the āØ$7,700 broker feeāØ and the $300 coffee maker he couldnāt afford.
At first, it felt like freedom.
Then the bills hit.
And suddenly, independence wasnāt aesthetic ā it was overdraft fees and frozen pizza.
š āThis time felt like failureā¦ dressed up as independence.ā
Oof. That line hits.
This episode of Mental is for anyone whoās ever felt behind, babied, or fake-grown.
Because the truth is, your parentsā love can accidentally hold you back.
And adulting isnāt about nice couches ā itās about learning how to respond when it all goes sideways.
š§ Tap in for Westonās story ā or risk learning the hard way like he did.
Responsibility doesnāt mean control.
It means you actually know how to respond.
