I'm miserable. I'm seriously hoping that my happy pills will start putting in some work soon, because I haven't been able to eat or sleep for two weeks now. I do have a doctor's appointment tomorrow, so I'll hopefully be able to get some answers to stuff that's been bothering me.

Wow, rough. So there was no particular health or social event that seemed to have started this, as far as you know?

It's been a combination of new and old body image issues that I'm having to reconcile. I'm getting through them, one day at a time.

Let me know if I can help. I think I wrestle with some such matters myself. I struggle with thinking that I'm attractive; I cannot just destroy or ignore my own subconscious ideals, and my own face simply doesn't fit a couple major ones... So maybe you're making more progress than me and I should change that initial statement to, "Let me know [what you're doing]!"

Not sure I have much in the way of beneficial advice right now. I'm just doing my best to work toward being pretty while also trying not to compare myself to other people. 🥹

Hard to argue with!
