Staying at home vs a flat

Hi all, i have a job which pays 50k pm. The problem is that my office is in south ex where the rent are extremely high. I recently found a flat for 16k, and after calculating my name expenses would amount to around 25(commute to office plus food and other expenses). I takes me around 80 mins to reach office from dwarka where I live with my uncle and his family but I don't have any privacy their, the only plus is I save most of my salary but I get so tired after reaching that I end up scrolling Instagram for the time left and just sleep, no gym or any other activities. I really want to shift to a flat but confused whether giving 16k in the salary I have is a viable option or not

Find a place in lajpat nagar, much cheaper than South ex. Travel by bus/metro is easy around there.

The other problem is that I would probably need only 1 bhk and their harder to find

You should ideally share a flat with flatmates, cheaper than renting 1 bhk by yourself

Depends really on what you value more.
Saving money is always better option, thats a no-brainer but if you feel personal growth / development is getting hampered cuz of excessive travel, probably go with shifting. Its okay to spend some if you're getting better quality of life.
