โFor a long time my body image and self-worth were a mess. I avoided mirrors, picked at my skin until it was raw, and was sure my colleagues could see right through me at work. The changes were tiny at first. I told one friend what was actually going on. I found a therapist who let me talk without making me feel small. Learning that good days and bad days can sit next to each other was a big part of it. You don't have to sort everything out today. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, and ask for help before you feel like you're drowning. Bad days don't mean you're failing.โ
โDear stranger, i was in the same place in 2022. Back then it was the gym changing room. My kids say I'm back. The bad days get further apart.โ
โi know it feels like you're alone in this, but you're not. i've been where you are, hating my body, feeling like a fraud. the first step is telling someone, even if it's just one person. for me, it was my partner and then a dietitian. it's not easy, and some days are still crap, but it does get better. be patient with yourself. you deserve to be happy.โ
โfor anyone starting with the mirror stuff: it starts with one comment and then it lives in your head rent free, which is rude. what helped me was noticing how much time I gave to strangers on Instagram and how little to Clive or Kemar or my own lunch. I am not fixed, not even close. But I stopped weighing myself before work. small. do one small thing that is yours and not about how you look, even if it is just eating the chicken with the skin on.โ
