I never learned how to make a home.
I learned how to survive in spaces.
I learned how to adapt.
I learned how to make room for everyone else.
But I never learned how to make something mine.

I never realized this was why I stopped decorating my house. I have been so busy surviving trauma and mental abuse that I lost my motivation to decorate. I just keep the house really clean.

I’m going on year 3 at my place and am starting to come around to decorating and actually having a “theme” it’s scary

This is so real . When I was in my intensive outpatient program I had the urge to decorate my house. Never really thought of it then.

I noticed the other day that I have an entire house basically to myself, and I sit in one corner, making myself small, all the time.

On the flip side, my room was the only thing I could control in my life living with an abusive dad. Took it with me into adulthood 💙
