I think this is a good idea though i'm not sure why you only consider it a temporary option?

I think very few families can live together permanently...in fact the only way i could get by without destroying mine was to move out.

Both you and your mum deserve a life outside of each other. That doesn't mean you can't be close but i think you'll give each other the best chance of mutual respect if you allow for space and independence.
