One thing you can do to peer into the future is do the numbers. Figure out what your paycheck is likely to be, subtract your bills from it, then see what you have left. Figure out how to live within that. It'll look really, really tight, but if you spend more time drawing and going for walks or visit parks for pass time, you can space out your expensive pastimes and help make it work. But more importantly, doing the numbers and visualizing how you'll do it will go a long way toward easing that anxiety.
