You are beautiful

At least someone thinks so 😅Needed this today so thank you, you kind soul 💗

How was your day?

How was my day?

Thanks for asking first of all.

It was a hard day. I had a pretty important appointment. My mom was suppose to come and help me with the kids so I could focus on the conversation with the doctor but she bailed.

Oh I’m sorry, what was your appointment for?

Well my doctor says I have postpartum depression. I’ve been prescribed antidepressants and refereed to a counsellor.

I’m pretty disappointed in myself and I feel like a failure..

Okay, but like, I know my body isn’t terrible.

I know I’m not disgustingly fat, and that I could very easily rock how I look right now if I was confident in myself.

Even if I know this, it doesn’t stop me from seeing the fact that, while my body isn’t ‘terrible’, it isn’t ‘good’. While I’m not ‘fat’, I’m not ‘skinny’. I’m not ugly but I’m not pretty either, I’m not huge but I’m still too big and I could be so much better. I could look so much better than just ‘not terrible’.

Here’s something no one ever tells victims of emotional abuse:

You don’t just “grow out” of the abuse mindset. It is something that sticks with you for the rest of your life, manifesting in weird ways:

I still find myself saying things like “I love my Dad, he had good moments - like, yeah, I lived in constant fear of setting off one of his angry moods, but I mean, is that not normal?”

I still find myself agonizing over the loss of a friend whom I had thought I was really close to. More often than not, I find myself wondering what else I could do to try and patch things up between us, even though she has shown no interest in rekindling a friendship and has ignored my attempts to remedy things.

I will repeatedly apologize, even when in reality, I’ve done nothing that warrants the need for an apology (Ex: A woman got into line behind me at the Redbox machine and I apologized for not being done by the time she walked up, even though I had no control over how fast the machine moved)

This is something that I (and god knows how many others) have to deal with on a daily basis, going through a mental script during our daily interactions.

So, when you find yourself with someone who is apologizing unnecessarily or acting “skittish” (for lack of a better word), don’t chastise them or tease them for the ingrained survival tactics that they’ve learned. Trust me - We are well aware.
