what it’s really like living with CMT and why I used to be so ashamed of it
If I could sum it up in just a few words? I’m always tired.
Not like end of the day when you just want to go to bed tired. But like my muscles are going to give out any second tired. Or I can’t even find the strength to brush my teeth tired.
It’s also a lot of little things that the world never sees.
body positive phrases I’m tired of hearing
“Real women have curves.”
“Strong is beautiful.”
“I’d rather be this size than unhealthy.”
“Focus more on what your body does than how it looks.
What do all of these phrases have in common?
They try to uplift one group by stepping on another.
And they are deeply rooted in ableism and body shaming.
