This is the face of a woman who’s been battling perimenopausal depression for the last few months, and finally got some much needed relief.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is the face of a woman who’s been working some seriously radical self-care this week by going to doctors, cleaning up her diet, stopping drinking, and getting back on much needed meds.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Self-care isn’t just about getting a mani/pedi. It’s about getting the mammogram + pap, seeing the dentist, having a physical, getting up at 6am and getting those fasting labs done, and filling that prescription for the meds that will help.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is the face of a happy woman, and it’s been a long-ass time since I was able to say I truly felt good.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What about you? What self-care have you been putting off that you will commit to here and now? Leave it in the comments.

$The thing about depression is that the fog of it can be so thick you barely realize you’re in it until something small (like your PCP’s generic screening questions at your annual physical) rips open a clearing and it all makes sense. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And then you’re sobbing in front of a 25-year-old nurse who has no idea what to do with you, and your doctor comes in and listens, really listens, and you begin to make a plan but the fog is rolling back and all you feel is the rawness of it all. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Again. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And in the darkness, the heaviness, the sheer brutality of it all, I put one foot in front of the other and somehow make it to the gym. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because exercise is my antidepressant. But more than that, coming together in community with these women, this group of 10-15 women I see each day I can drag my ass to @breakthrufit these women, they give me life. They hold me together when I’m falling apart, and I only hope I am for them even a fraction of what they are for me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And last week I walked in for my salve, but instead, I fell apart. And @moviusk said, “What are you doing tonight? I’m taking you out.” And @michelledozoisfitness joined us and I’ve never felt so loved and cared for and I swear by all that’s holy that women will get us all through all of this. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We will ease each other’s burdens, we will carry the load when it’s too heavy for one or other of us to bear. Like geese in formation, we will trade off time carrying the flock, and then fall back when we need to be carried ourselves.$ Where’s the lie?
