Postcards from the Mountains
My entire face is breaking out and I’m stressed out, but it’s hard to tell if it’s the cortisol that’s causing the breakout or the other way around or maybe it’s food or allergens or eczema… (thank you Dr. Google for sending me on a spiral). As someone who admittedly does (rightly or wrongly) care about her appearance, something like this feels awful and all-consuming. Even though it shouldn’t be this way, a decent percentage of my self worth — perception of my self worth — and confidence does come from how I look. I so often forget how lucky I am to have good skin until something like this happens.
So to hopefully decrease the cortisol, some happy place moments — the mountains.
