It’s all about perspective.

I do not like posting pictures of myself.

I think we’re all guilty of being our own worst critic, so I’m sure you can all understand. When I see a picture of myself all I see are the flaws. My thighs look too big, my forehead is huge, who let me out of the house looking like this? And so on. The thoughts are endless really.

I haven’t shared much of my personal life on Instagram, I like to keep it light and fluffy and save the deep stuff for my blog. (Because not that many people read it, so it’s safe.) Back in July I wrote a blog post about my struggle with anorexia and there are 2 things about the reaction it got that shocked me.
1. A lot of people told me they had no idea what I went through.
2. It resonated with so many people. Between comments and messages I received personally and the ones passed along from my mum, so many people had their own story. Whether it was their own struggle or that of a loved one, everyone had a connection somehow. I think the one that touched me the most was the girl who was inspired to seek treatment after 10 years of struggling. All because I shared my own struggle.
I don’t talk about it often, not because I’m ashamed, but because it tends to make people uncomfortable. People that haven’t gone through it and understand what the struggle and journey is like. But there are more people out there that need people to talk and share. Whatever you’re going through, you’re not alone.
