After much weight loss/weight gain, feeling depressed, being sick, and using it as an excuse to dress and look like crap, I changed. I'm now dressing nicely and wearing makeup. Not letting this disease be an excuse to not take care of myself!

I think it's equally as important to take care of your outside as well as your insides. You'd be surprised the difference it makes to your overall health !! Good for you.

absolutely! I try to encourage some of my acquaintances and friends about that fact. It takes time...yes...but so worth it. I feel so much better with make-up and my hair done. I've actually never gone out without either....I'd look sick and don't want that attention. Make-up is a miracle to me..lol.

There is scientific evidence that if you act a certain way even if you don't feel that way it you will believe it and good things will happen.
Good step.

I know that when I am dressed up, I walk taller and people smile at me and say hello more! So it's a better day.
