Abstract - A comprehensive survey of people who live in
Shared accommodation has its own pros and cons but the pros can sometimes be overcome by the disadvantages. Let’s talk about the pros of shared accommodation that are basic for every human such as getting some social support and someone to be there in their hard times or maybe medical emergencies. But this social support goes in vain if the person has some dispute with his/her roommate. They may have privacy issues with them too. This may affect their social relationships in a negative manner. Sometimes the social relations of roommates may have positive attitudes and positive changes in their personal as well as professional life but that is not always the case.
shared spaces was performed to understand the association between general housing and mental health as little is known about the mental health outcomes of house sharing. Since shared housing is viewed as an economically and socially viable housing option for young adults, a wider understanding of how shared housing affects the residents’ quality of life, including mental health. In this context, this study aims to provide empirical evidence about the relationship between mental health and house sharing after controlling for residents’ self-selection. Key Words: Shared Accommodation, Flatmates, Mental Health, Shared Living Spaces, Shared Housing
Let us take a case where two roommates are completely different in nature, this would play a major role in their compatibility as roommates. One of them wants to study well and the other is a fun-loving person and is not that much into studying. This may create a dispute between them if they do not have a mutual understanding among them. One wants to play music while the other wants to study. One wants their lights turned off to sleep while the other has some other commitments and wants to turn on the lights. If we take a case of three people sharing the room, it is possible maybe two of them have a good bond and the thrice feels left out. These are some reasons which are very common but people rarely consider them to be one of the reasons for someone’s mental pressure or maybe for not a good performance at work or not being able to focus on work properly.
1.INTRODUCTION India is the second most populated country holding 17.70% of the world's share has approximately 67.27 per cent of people aged between 18 and 64, which is the peak period of education and employment for which almost all the people migrate from their homes to either their workplace or for education purposes. This leads to a concept of shared accommodation which is very common for students but also for people who are in the corporate world to reduce their rent and financial burden. Now if you are living in a shared accommodation then you will surely have to part your space with a roommate, we have observed that the presence of a roommate is equally disturbing as the absence of a roommate. Having a roommate with no compatibility might lead to problems such as stress, anxiety and sometimes depression, but this is a risk to be endured for survival in metro cities where the cost of living alone is very high.
This paper reflects major problems faced by a tenant due to his or her roommate or flatmate which will be proved by a survey of various tenants.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW Various studies have been conducted in many countries dealing with shared living spaces, their benefits, and drawbacks. Shared living seems to be particularly well suitable to young adults who are deeply dedicated to the labor market: it is a flexible household arrangement that may provide 'professional standard' housing as well as ready access to a social life for time-constrained and geographically mobile employees. The presence of other household members, on the other hand, is both its greatest weakness and its greatest strength, giving close emotional support for members conducting partner relationships
Let us see how the presence of a roommate will give you mental pressure, here comes the concept of survival which can affect day to day activities and mental pressure which directly can affect a person’s success in future. We have seen many of our friends and in our locality too, that incompatible behaviour of his/her roommate leads to a lot of irritation such as smoking or drinking habits of that person or playing loud music, which will affect a student’s life, or in simple words if profession and age group doesn’t match among the roommates then either one or both will suffer.
