A lot of times when I am too unwell to go up and down stairs, I am forced to staying down in the living room with the pull out couch. This photo was from my old home, but I had to put a thick blanket to cover the blinds (I cannot work, so black out curtains is not something I was willing to invest in when blankets did the job for me) because of my photophobia. I still have issues with bright lights and daylight, and you will often find my home to be very dark until I absolutely need light; which is depressing and not something I am a fan of in general. I am a very “bright” individual, from my personality , to clothes, to loving the sun, I love the light, so it has been a lot to accept that I can’t really enjoy that anymore without lots to steps necessary to dim the outside world. [Photo context: I had just finished rehanging the blanket up]
