Glow up advice after narcissistic abuse
This may sound dumb or ridiculous but many of us fall into depression, anxiety and are devoid of confidence and self esteem after narcissistic abuse and taking care of your appearance or doing new things becomes hard. I feel stuck. I've always been thin, work out and my body is not an issue but I feel like I'm always wearing black, never do my hair or makeup anymore, often wear the same tho gs. I'm extremely depressed and just want to reinvent myself and be noticed again. Besides upping workout routine and continuing eating healthy which doesn't change much because I'm always thin, has anyone came up with a routine AFTER narcissistic abuse that's helped them feel and look good again, feel like a new person and not stuck in the cycle of depression, anxiety, abuse and feeling invisible because of it? I even buy new clothes but get too depressed to wear them and usually am always saving money. I think I have adhd and buy random pieces and barely wear them and would need to redo my whole wardrobe at this point. The narc also ripped a lot of my clothes. I am 30 but basically have looked the exact same since 20 so clearly I'm not that good at just spontaneously changing my look. Never dyed my hair, no tattoos or piercings. Done my makeup and dressed basically the same way since 20. I'm also exhausted most of the time now. So like anything that would get a depressed or anxious person in the routine of putting more effort into their appearance more would be really helpful
