Someone once asked...

“My left arm is paralyzed from a motorcycle accident from January and I'm having to go to uni again. Had to pause my studies for an entire year. It starts tomorrow, I've gained fast from stress eating and my arm is very very slowly recovering and could take upto 2 years. How do I feel confident and like myself again?”

Someone answered with kindness...

Just know that you are more important than anything rn , don't try to lose weight when ur weak. Eat properly and try to maintain the current weight. You can lose weight anytime in life. Confidence will never be about how you look but you feel , YOU reflect it. Just know that you survived that accident which is A HUGE blessing. Give time to yourself , be kind. 2 years will pass in a blink , just keep learning , keep hanging out with friends and family. Don't isolate yourself. I don't know you nor I'll ever know anything about you , but I'm so glad you are doing better now and that accident wasn't fatal to your life. 🩷 Keep smiling stranger , watch how the tables turn in the best way possible
