Not sure if you still have friends at home, but perhaps the most fun period of my life was living at home after grad school working a low-wage job. I spent a ton of time with my old buddies drinking and playing games like MTG. I moved to another city to get a "real" job and ended up living here for the last six years. I've met a lot of cool people here and been much more successful career-wise, but honestly I'd love to go back in the next few years before I'm really old and enjoy the time with my friends and my parents while they're still around. You may or may not have similar draws where you're from, but if you do I'd just say it might feel like a retreat at first but actually end up being a great time in your life.
