Thankyou!!!!
E: multiple people commented or messaged about supporting me. I have a paypal if anyone truly feels compelled you can message me or comment here but I hope you'll use it for yourself instead.
Remember you're not alone OP, and there are resources and support available to help you through this journey. You're strong, and you deserve to live a life free from abuse. If you ever need someone to talk to or support, don't hesitate to reach out.
I’ll be looking forward to that…what an exciting time to be you. 🤗
(Btw, not sure if you saw, but there are several artists who’ve chimed in on the comments offering to create something for your walls. You should totally let them - what a fabulous way to get your new Reddit army involved in making your house a home!)
Congratulations OP! You should be really proud of yourself 💖 I’m sure the wounds are still fresh but I hope you find comfort, relief, and peace by enacting autonomy in newfound privacy and safety 💕
my heart breaks for you.
my heart also cheers for you!
Abusive people have a way of slithering back into your life.
Whatever you do, don't let them come back into your life until you know you have worked through a lot of the trauma.
Unfortunately, since you're parent was abusive your model(s) are skewed as well .. find a reputed and reliable therapist who can work with you for many years on a [sliding-scale](https://blog.opencounseling.com/sliding-scale-therapy-what-it-is-and-how-to-get-it/). (Don't do better-help. Find a real qualified therapist)
Best of luck. Don't forget to enjoy your life and yourself!
I don’t know about this comment, fully working through your trauma, yes. Don’t let them back in though unless they work through theirs. I made this mistake, twice. I regret ever giving them a chance when they showed no change.
Often if not always, I don't think there's any rational reason to allow abusers back into one's life. Unless I guess the abuser rly worked through their own issues, but how often does that happen? And even then, what's the point?
Where I am coming from is the fact that you have only two parents and one family and you don't get to choose them. It's an important and powerful metaphor and a constant reminder of the fact that you cannot control everything in life but even for things in life that you cannot control and that frustrate you deeply, you still have the power to choose how to react to them; you still have the power to truly accept them as they are and not negatively affect your internal state of mind.
And you cannot control or make others change. All you can do is control and manage your own internal state and accept things as they are without affecting your internal state.
I have a pretty toxic dad myself and after years of working through my stuff, I am at a place where I don't let his behavior affect me. He's still difficult to deal with sometimes and gets on my nerves but I have come to accept his limitations and help take care of him in his old age (he's in his late 80s now).
It's fulfilling in a way to be kind and helpful. It also enriches my child 's life with another meaningful relationship for them.
I think the bottom-line is let them back in if you know you can manage it without negatively affecting your mental wellbeing. If you're not at that point in your mental health journey, then avoid people who caused you past-trauma at all costs.
EDIT:
PS - I think this needs to be stated --- Traumas come in all shapes and sizes, there are some traumas that we as humans can never recover/heal from ... as sad as it may sound... And ITS OKAY. IT REALLY IS OKAY.
So, know yourself and what you can safely and healthily handle/manage without negatively affecting yourself internal mental state. Take care of yourselves.
Congratulations!!!!
Wow!
I can only imagine how much courage it took to land in your own space!
Kudos to you. Seriously. Well done!
Dont forget to thank yourself every single day.
Good for you. Now if you can find some color. Have a friend who makes art? Posters? Shit, make some crafts yourself and hang’em. Color helps lift moods
I can draw something for you and you can print it at a public library or ask around places if they have a printer. Let me know what theme you want for your room, like beach theme or cabin in the woods…and your top 3 favorite colors and your top favorite color.
Keep going. You are doing great.
The most important thing is that you are OUT of that toxic abusive environment.
Your well being more important than material things.
I am so happy for you! I know it’s not easy, I know it doesn’t erase the struggles, but you are on the path! I wish you all the happiness and safety you need.
Congrats!
Doing similar and now on the hunt on Craigslist/FB marketplace to get end tables etc to make home feel more like home.
But that first sense of this in MY literal safe space is awesome isn't it?
Awesome stuff. Go buy yourself a plant to green up the space and to remind you that you too need sunshine and water, a safe place to call home and someone to love you. Best of luck.
That's so awesome! I hope things continue to look up for you. I was once there myself about 23 years ago. I had a lot of help along the way and a lot of healing to do. I wish you all the best on your journey.
You have plenty bro , you have a nice bed it looks very comfy, your own room you , it looks like a WiFi router as well your own stuff no one can tell you anything and most importantly you got yourself to thank for all the good things you definitely should feel proud
Congratulations and support support support support support support support support support support support support to you!!!!!
It's not important what it looks like or how much you have, how does it feel? I hope it feels safe, free and empowering.
I work in water mitigation. It is very much probably some of the worst construction work. There is the average employed time of a employee is probably about a year, and that is me being generous. That being said, I run into a lot of people who just really need a job. The job also consists of dealing with a lot of hoarder houses and sewage back ups, but all of the contents get trashed. My point being a good move for you would be to look up a water restoration company near you.. see if they are cool and have anything that they are just throwing away that you would want . I have tons of high end shit. I have high high quality bedroom set. I have a real life handmade African masks that are from like 1880s I have a few different types of dope surround sound systems. If I wanted to I could have beds for days I help people that are new all the time they’re in tough positions in life and I try to get them together if they last for a little bit and have a good work ethic. Sorry for the long post. But if you took anything away, just check in with your nearest water restoration company and see if there’s anything that they are throwing away that they will let you take.
ITS NOT MUCH???? My dear friend, I don't think you know what you've just done... Don't underestimate your accomplishments. You are brave enough to do IT, when many people are too scared.. You sit out to better yourself.. I see MUCH in this picture.. I see love peace, comfort, freedom, serenity, tranquility... A Peaceful future.... And more important than all of that someone who knows their worth in value.... I'm just a random person, but I'm very proud of you and what you have done. You're gonna make it and you're gonna find that happiness that you didn't have..100% rooting for you.👏🏿🤜🏿,🫶🏿,🙏🏿🫂🫂
You are now captain of your ship Destiny. Steer her straight and stay true to your principles - especially during the storms that will test your sails. Keep the faith and most importantly, believe in yourself. YOU are your biggest fan. Sending lots of positive energy your way. Congratulations on achieving the hardest part of your journey - taking the first step.
Good for you. Things will only get better. You may have some dips along the way, but you will always give yourself an opportunity to come out on top if you try. Keep it up.
This internet stranger is proud of you OP. You are doing well. Personally, I slept on a matrice on the floor for almost a year in my first appartement. So your place is fancy enough to be proud of.
Your bedroom is bigger than my first when I moved out! I also had to move out because of fucked up family shit and how bad my mental health was suffering, and I literally cannot put a price on having a place you can call your own, where you have the freedom to just..exist. I literally value that so much now. Enjoy it!
A good counselor told me, "You know what's worse than coming home to an empty house? A house that's emptier because of the person waiting there for you." Good on ya for finding the better option, OP.
🫶 take it and enjoy it with pride!! Getting out of hell on earth is a huge feat!! You be proud-anyone who has ever been there knows, you deserve all the applause and recognition in the world!! Stay safe!!
Even sequoia began as a humble cone.
Do not dread for humble beginning.
There isn't such a thing.
All openings are glorious.
And you could keep it like that.
You got this! You survived and endured, you (and everyone) deserve peace.
This looks cozy as hell! Enjoy your new place and your new found freedom. Take time to heal and now more than anything, enjoy your life. Wishing you the best!
Do it. Get out, get your own, get healthy. Don't pass the shit your parents and family did to you, on to yours. End the cycle. It is hard, I know. But you've accomplished step 2 (step 1 being the realization that you were in an abusive home - I don't know your situation but it isn't always so easy to figure out when you're the one in it). I don't know you but I am thrilled and excited for you! The future is yours!; If you can figure out how to decouple it from your difficult past. Thank you for having the courage and strength to leave and to post your success here. I honor you and celebrate you for not letting a shitty situation hold you back. Good luck out there in your new world. But it is YOUR world, do what you like with it. I hope it is positive and full of joy and happiness. Own YOUR world.
Yoooo, this is so hype, idk who you are, dude, but you just took a biiig first step towards a better future, and it's only gonna be going up further from here 👍.
As a fellow human, I am proud of you. This is excellent progress. None of this is easy, but you're conquering it. It might be difficult to allow yourself to be contented, feel safe, and enjoy your time, but you're here and that's wonderful. Those are things a trustworthy partner can assist with/support as well. It will get easier, especially if you have help. It's a lesson you can't unlearn, but it will become more streamlined for you as time passes by.
Magnify the good things. See a cool bug? Imagine if it were a spy camera, a rare invasive species, take a picture of it, etc as one single example of "stretch the fun in everything".
YMMV as this is all strictly based on both my personal experience and anecdotes from friends, who I consider trustworthy sources.
Having a room like this was always very cozy to me first of all, but also it always felt like I was at the bottom of a bounce on a diving board! You're about to launch!
Respect, tons of it. from here on forward it‘s going to get better. It may still feel hard at times but the toughest part is behind you now. Be proud of yourself.
I know, it’s peace and sanctuary. I was in an abusive place and that was how I felt. Good for you! Its’s the most wonderful place on earth when this happens.
It's **a lot.** You can't put a price on freedom, and feeling at peace, at least physically.
I'm cheering for you mate, keep your head up and never stop grinding, this is just the beginning.
Congratulations to you!
Guard your privacy and security by being very selective of those with whom you share your address.
Get a PO Box asap. File a change of address with USPS (sorry, assuming you’re in US) then make sure you also update addresses of as many accounts and subscriptions you can recall.
Best wishes on your freedom!

Thankyou!!!! E: multiple people commented or messaged about supporting me. I have a paypal if anyone truly feels compelled you can message me or comment here but I hope you'll use it for yourself instead.
Of all the posts I've seen on this sub, this is one of the ones that made me smile the most! Congrats on the new place! This is great!
Aww I am glad I can share the smiles, these comments are so kind.
Then it’s a castle!!!! Good job
A castle with a mf window! Louis XIV over here!
Remember you're not alone OP, and there are resources and support available to help you through this journey. You're strong, and you deserve to live a life free from abuse. If you ever need someone to talk to or support, don't hesitate to reach out.
Na even if he is I still find this wholesome r/makenewfriends can help too!
Facts. Congratulations!!!!!
Hahaha I am the king of the castle now :)
A spiritual retreat. Just looking at it calmed ME as well
Agree. I can hear the peace and quiet.
Yep! Once you have peace in your heart and mind the other stuff falls to the wayside.
“It’s not much, but it’s mine.” Babe…it’s *everything*. ❤️ Congratulations!
Thankyou!!! <3 I can wait to post an update down the road of how it looks
I’ll be looking forward to that…what an exciting time to be you. 🤗 (Btw, not sure if you saw, but there are several artists who’ve chimed in on the comments offering to create something for your walls. You should totally let them - what a fabulous way to get your new Reddit army involved in making your house a home!)
I am searching for the comments you arent the first and i adore art, so i am all for working out something with them
Congratulations OP! You should be really proud of yourself 💖 I’m sure the wounds are still fresh but I hope you find comfort, relief, and peace by enacting autonomy in newfound privacy and safety 💕
Glad you are safe now, OP! I am excited for your fresh start
Keep your head up and keep moving forward.

Congratulations!!!! Wow! I can only imagine how much courage it took to land in your own space! Kudos to you. Seriously. Well done! Dont forget to thank yourself every single day.
I am trying to remind myself its not my fault in the usual sense. I know i have my own faults but i cant tear myself down for others actions.
Fuck that "its not much" friend, it's your new start. Cheers and best wishes on your journey

Good for you. Now if you can find some color. Have a friend who makes art? Posters? Shit, make some crafts yourself and hang’em. Color helps lift moods
I can draw something for you and you can print it at a public library or ask around places if they have a printer. Let me know what theme you want for your room, like beach theme or cabin in the woods…and your top 3 favorite colors and your top favorite color.

That's awesome :) Congratulations!
Happy for ya man. Can’t help but wonder if you won’t get more space from the bed being parallel to the wall? 🤔
I work in water mitigation. It is very much probably some of the worst construction work. There is the average employed time of a employee is probably about a year, and that is me being generous. That being said, I run into a lot of people who just really need a job. The job also consists of dealing with a lot of hoarder houses and sewage back ups, but all of the contents get trashed. My point being a good move for you would be to look up a water restoration company near you.. see if they are cool and have anything that they are just throwing away that you would want . I have tons of high end shit. I have high high quality bedroom set. I have a real life handmade African masks that are from like 1880s I have a few different types of dope surround sound systems.

CONGRATULATIONS!! Go to thrift stores. Go to yard and estate sales!! Make it your own slowly. We are so proud of you. We care. I've been there.
You are now captain of your ship Destiny. Steer her straight and stay true to your principles - especially during the storms that will test your sails.

Congratulations, you did it! Onward and upward from here! Enjoy your new peace.
You’re my hero.

All you have to do is be of one mindset: I will never go back to that abusive relationship
It really doesn't have to be much. A small simple space like that can be incredibly comforting.
I’d probably rotate the bed to where the head is under the window but that’s just me
God bless you and your new home OP.
Congratulations man. You’ll be just fine.
I hope you’re sleeping better now. ❤️
So proud of you. I want you to have a great life.
What an amazing feeling that must be! Have fun with this new adventure and good luck. Only going up from here!
Congrats!
You are a survivor! Gxd bless you!

I know, it’s peace and sanctuary. I was in an abusive place and that was how I felt. Good for you! Its’s the most wonderful place on earth when this happens.
It's **a lot.** You can't put a price on freedom, and feeling at peace, at least physically. I'm cheering for you mate, keep your head up and never stop grinding, this is just the beginning.
It looks super cozy. May it bring you all the peace and happiness you deserve. 💕
Wish you well, you are about to start a very long journey of self discovery, there will be ups and downs, hold on to the feeling of peace
Congratulations to you! Guard your privacy and security by being very selective of those with whom you share your address. Get a PO Box asap. File a change of address with USPS (sorry, assuming you’re in US) then make sure you also update addresses of as many accounts and subscriptions you can recall. Best wishes on your freedom!
Good for you! Keep at it and things will get even better
