On the assumption that you need to feed yourself regardless, cooking as a hobby can be really cheap, since worst-case you only spend whatever you’d have spent on food anyway. You might even end up saving money!
I do understand the bit of needing to feed myself and all, but just randomly going up and cooking is sadly not something I can afford
Which is quite f-ed, I like to knead bread loaf
Can you explain? Is it cheaper to eat out / eat processed foods than buy groceries to cook? I’ve never lived in a place with that situation, but I understand it’s a possibility.

Assuming that you can cook well enough that your meals are guaranteed to be edible, which is assuming a lot for novices.
The biggest factor to success when starting out is your ability to follow instructions.
Pick a recipe, read through it, buy all the ingredients, and follow the instructions.
It’s not that hard. The reason people struggle is because they ignore the instructions like a dad in the 80’s
Good point. Some meals are pretty hard to mess up, though. Beans, rice, stews.
