I don’t think there are even words to explain how deeply this made me feel seen and not crazy. The intense pressure to keep up with these non-realistic standards of female beauty living in a place like NYC [and now LA] have deeply damaged my self worth and I’m trying to get out of that pit of despair. Maybe I’m not alone?
