So, I've been away for the past few months in a hospital recovering from Anorexia. It's also Eating Disorders Awareness Week, so I decided to paint my nails with little things I need to remember. I think these are important things everyone can remember about themselves, whether they're struggling with an Eating Disorder or not. Purple is the color for Eating Disorder Recovery, so
Thumb - Maybelline Color Show Iced Queen (You are worth more than a number)
Pointer Finger - Sephora by OPI What a Broad (You are gaining strength)
Middle Finger - Covergirl Lav-endure (Beauty isn't measured in pounds)
Ring Finger - Butter London Scoundrel (Destroy what destroys you)
Pinky - Sephora by OPI Just a Little Dangerous (Love your body)
And a topcoat of Seche Vite.
Lastly, I'd encourage you to visit http://www.nationaleatingdisorders.org/ for more information on Eating Disorders. They're not about vanity or looks, and they're incredibly deadly. They rob people of lives, love, and happiness. And they promise satisfaction, but they only bring misery. If anyone is struggling with an Eating Disorder of any kind, I'd encourage you ask for help. It's not something to be ashamed of, and no one deserves such pain.
Remember to love yourself for who you are! It's important. :)
