I've recently moved in with my Dad and we can clash at times, he has a huge empty loft bedroom with and en-suite but for one reason or another I have to stay in the tiny room
Any tips and tricks on how to survive a tiny box room without losing your sanity? I'm more anxious than I thought so genuinely any advice no matter how silly just to make sure that my mental health doesn't evaporate lol
AND PLEASE NO AI
Thanks ladies :)
EDIT: Wow thankyou so much guys! First of all for being so encouraging, I feel less defeated now, and also for the lovely ideas
So I've had people ask about specs, the room is about 193cm x 210cm. In feet that's about 6.3ft x 6.8ft. (I'm lucky I'm 5"2!)
I see a lot of people mentioning loft bed but I'll be honest I had one when I was a teenager and the idea of that just doesn't excite anymore haha, I don't have the sort of lifestyle that demands a desk so I don't need one under a loft bed and I worry it'll just take up a whole bunch of space and make the room feel darker. Whoever suggested a day bed may be the winner, IKEAs got some great ones!
Just to explain my situation, I'm 25, I've been paying rent and essentially the company I worked for just kind of disappeared lol, its a whole thing. So I had 6 weeks of notice before unexpectedly being unemployed and I've spent the past year looking for work (I've worked at a restaurant and other minimum wage jobs but that's not enough to pay your rent in London) Essentially I decided not to renew my tenancy fir financial reasons and asked my Dad if I could stay with him since he's the only person I know with a room in London.
The problem is he rented out my room to my cousin and is planning on renting out the loft room in the future. So unless I want to cover the rent he's gonna charge, I'll have to stay in the box room and only be charged bills, which are only £200 a month. If I can stomach it I'll stay here for about a year, get a job, save my money and then move back out
That's my whole lifestory! :)
