I feel you OP. It's hard to live in a basement.
It takes the joy out of life and can get really depressing, especially in the winter.
Hopefully one day you will get to move into an airy, bright space.
That being said, unless they are bragging about it, it isn't something that can or should be avoided mentioning.
It's a fact of life just like any other.
That's your challenge for now and hopefully you will get thru it.

I live in a house… but it comes along with a family. My husband has children from before. And a house from before.
The situation is a bit complicated obviously.
Some days I just wish I lived a normal life in a cozy little apartment.

I feel you OP. Living in a basement is horrible! I lived in one with roommates when single, and shared a bedroom with someone to keep costs down. There was zero privacy. I had therapy over the phone and had to do my sessions outside. I still wonder if people overheard them.
Once I got married we stayed above ground, but we’re in a community where most have bought and we’re renting.
I will say though, I don’t think we should make this into an official trigger. Unfortunately I have so many triggers including SA triggers I wouldn’t dare ask people to keep in mind. I think if we were given these triggers it’s our responsibility to make peace with the fact that we’re triggered by them. But of course further awareness that this might be a sensitive topic for many is always helpful.
