I also learned to appreciate being alone. well, sort of alone. I got 3 cats, which did more for me than I expected.
and now I love being here, and every room here is bursting with my personality, and I feel like I can fully relax. I feel self-actualized. it's a magical feeling.
then a few months into lockdown I got on Zoloft and that's when things *seriously* took off. for months on end I was constantly on my feet, cleaning, rearranging, reorganizing, waving my magic wand and putting sparkles of joy in every corner of my apartment. it was wonderful.
won't bore you with details, but this apartment is nigh unrecognizable compared to 1-2 years ago. lockdown especially was a big motivator — once that started, I put together an office area for myself literally overnight. then I kept upgrading it. I made it my own.
suddenly the apartment wasn't so dreary looking, and I felt like I could actually take steps to make it nicer.
so I did. and then, for the first time ever, I was picking new furniture based on *aesthetics* rather than just utility. I put together a place I'm proud to show off.
yellow lights all throughout. I *hate* warm white light. it fills me with dread. I don't know why.
changing the lights was the first major step on my path to feeling better. I got off my ass, I swapped them for daylight bulbs, and suddenly I felt... in control of my own life.
a few months after the breakup. not that I couldn't take care of it myself, but it carried this strange, heavy symbolism that was hard to shake.
and I hated the place. old, ugly furniture, everything haphazardly arranged, didn't even have a place to work, no desk or anything.
and then it was just me. everything I had to do with no help, such as cleaning, carried a psychological weight in addition to the added manual labor. everything kept screaming at me "you're alone, you're alone, you're alone!" I broke down crying when I had a mouse problem
the anxiety came from a few different places. after I'd gotten out of a long-term relationship with a live-in boyfriend, I was suddenly living truly alone for the very first time in my life. first it was my mom, then roommates, then roommates + boyfriend, then just boyfriend.
finally a gender binary I'm down with

unapologetic. hard to kill. feral, filled with sunlight, bright, beautiful in a way that the conventional and controlling hate but cannot ever fully destroy.
