One of the unintended consequences of suppressing my ADHD and bringing back my full blown autism is that it’s made me a massive geek that wants to stay in. Like my teens. I go out and see friends but as soon as I’m done I can’t wait to be back. And I used to hate it in this room! - ThreadSky

I had got to a point a few years ago where I would cry at my doorstep, reluctant to return.

A few years later, whole life upturned, and home is once again my sanctuary.

I love coming home. And I love being at home, with myself.

Thank you for sharing and I love that you feel safe there. Home. A feeling I’ve never really known. But I am starting to feel it recently as part of the journey I’ve been on. Strangely where I am now is somewhere I felt unsafe for a long time but now is starting to feel like home.

Nurture your home, tend to its needs with care like a child.

Be happily mindful with chores and tasks.

A healthy and happy you will grow from a healthy happy home.

This is why I’m not all that fussed about flat purchase delay. Or excited about moving in. Because if I was in the flat tomorrow I’d be doing exactly what I’m doing right now. Which does make me wonder why I’m putting almost my entire life savings into it. Well options. And a fallback.

It’s time to start imagining living in the flat. What I’d be doing. My morning routine. Maybe going to get some fresh bread. Or a run in Brockwell Park. No, prefer streets for runs. Then wander into Brixton. Tea somewhere. Groceries at the Sainsbury’s. Oh I can have a TV. Rewatch Babylon 5.

Okay I’m going to need to think bigger. I’ve not sold this to myself yet. I do pretty much all this already.

I’m going to have a sofa. I miss sitting on a sofa. Ah yes.

After 2+ years my mind can’t remember what it’s like to not live out of a backpack. This is going to take some adjustment. Also all my tweed and fine shoes and stuff… is that even me anymore? Feels a bit too much. Trying too hard. Attention and acceptance seeking. Bit pretentious. No thanks.

Like all the awesome I need is on the inside now.
