breaking patterns!! put in WORK to manage pcos, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, anxiety, people pleasing, perfectionism, inflammation, and more. all byproducts of the eldest daughter syndrome, self abandonment, and silencing your needs. and there’s a scientific link between that and horrible outcomes for women’s health like physical + mental illnesses and worse. sharing everything I learned on the way because if I can drag myself out of the pits of hell (still dragging) you can too I hate before and afters so much because it makes me feel like you’re belittling that past version of you, but the truth is I love her so much and she worked so hard and I’m proud to still carry her with me and want to make her proud <3 #eldestdaughter #lifestylechange #MentalHealth #selflove #transformation
