โHello from the other side of it. I've been there. For me it was two years ago. The worst part was comparing myself on Instagram. Now I sleep most nights. It's slow, but it does come back. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ
โI was where you are eighteen months ago. It was feeling like a fraud at work and I couldn't see past it. Last month I had people round for dinner. From someone who gets it.โ
โFor whoever is where I was: I've been there. For me it was about three years ago. The worst part was deleted dating apps. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. Bit by bit it comes back. Keep going, even slowly.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
