I’ve been struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and coping with my ADD and ASD. Because of my mental health, I have hated looking at myself in the mirror and will overeat constantly. I haven’t taken selfies in a long time and I was feeling worthless. I teach special ed middle schoolers and, even though it’s my passion, the environment has been a trigger for my anxiety attacks and stimulation overload. I’ve been out of school since March 11th and won’t be going back in person for at least the remainder of the school year. Since then, I’ve been slowly recovering. Yesterday was the first time in a long time that I was happy with what I saw in the mirror. I ended up taking a selfie :) I’m still continuing down a long road, but I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel ❤️
