Help Advice on living with roommate/s + moving out?

[jeevasO-o]

I posted about my Home situation (<- TW:NSFW)
I don't plan on leaving soon, but I will.

I'd appreciate any advice on moving out and how it's like living with a roommate (how to even find one). Money will be a problem, which is why I want a roommate. Another reason is because of my mental issues I don't trust myself living alone at all.

Does anyone else here lived or lives with a roommate? How is it like? What should I know? What do I need to look out for? How can I find a fitting roommate? How can I find a good apartment? General advice?

(I live in Austria, if that matters)
Thanks!<3

hey!

i found my roommate on a facebook group. honestly, i got very lucky. she is the best and most caring person ever. but yeah living with someone else seeing your depression room, stinky self, not eating, not leaving your bed, etc. you def have to be upfront about how you feel and be good at communicating. i did not help clean for a month but my roommate was ok with it because she understands what i go through. beng vulnerable in that way is hard but it feels good to have support
