From people who came through it

  • โ€œI 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€

  • โ€œFor 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€

  • โ€œFor 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€
