Earlier this week, I saw myself in a mirror and started tearing up because I didn’t like how the right side of my face looked from a distant, how it looked ghost like. A few minutes ago, I caught another glimpse of myself and thought “ewww”. No makeup, messy hair, dry lips, wrinkles, pores, pimples, vitiligo, hyperpigmentation, freckles, neck creases, double chin, etc. This mental game is something I struggled with LONG before I developed vitiligo. I think it stems from always being compared or my looks poked at when I was younger. My husband is constantly telling me how beautiful I am. He especially loves me makeup free, messy hair, and bumming it out. Even with all of his love, I still struggle. I low key hate social media. Hate the “perfect” and aesthetically pleasing content bc most of the time it’s not reality. But I truly believe God has given me the platform I have to help others and myself. I quickly snapped these pics to remind myself that I need to stop being so hard on myself. There’s so much going on and others dealing with worse. I’m not here for self pity, I’m here to share my honest thoughts and feelings. If you’re struggling in this mental game, you’re not alone. I will pray for me and you. 🤍 If you made it this far, thank you. I love y’all. 🫶🏼 #skinpositivity #beautypositivity #vitiligo #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness
