I find it incredibly difficult to love my body, I spoke to my therapist yesterday about how I had started posting about body image as well as mental health related stuff and she said ābody imagine is heavily tied in with mental health and can make such a big difference to our mental wellbeing once we realise thatā Itās only recently that I have started to realise that for myself, hating my body has caused me years and years of depression, so on top of dealing with borderline personality disorder I have also been dealing with disordered eating. I donāt have an eating disorder, I will never claim to but I have taken part in some awful diets, Iāve restricted my body of what it has needed, Iāve binged to the point of excruciating pain due to the depression that comes with restriction. Iāve drank alcohol as a way of self medicating in the past and been thankful when I have thrown up and seen it as a way to lose weight, thatās not a healthy way of thinking and Iām sorry to my body for all I have put it through. Those kinds of thoughts still arise at times and at times I still dislike my body but Iām working on it. Iām sick of feeling like I have to shrink myself for societyās standards, So Iām making a vow to myself to accept, honour and love my rolls š Bra is Bridget balconette by @curvykate from @brastop #honouryourself #loveyourself #bodyconfidence #bodylove #bodyacceptance #honouryourcurves #bodypositive #bodypositivity #bodyposi #babesunite #borderlinepersonalitydisorder #disorderedeating #dietculture #dietculturedropout #effyourbeautystandards #effyourdiet #mentalwellbeing #brastop #curvykate #fatbabe #chubbybabe #learningtolovemyself #iamworthy
