I used to think a vitamin could fix me. I bought the biotin gummies after seeing them everywhere—like maybe if my hair grew thicker, or my nails stopped breaking, I’d finally feel okay in my skin. Every morning, I chewed two, watching myself in the mirror. Waiting for something to change. I read the label, counted the days, tried to ignore the voice that said I was still not enough—no matter what the bottle promised. I told myself it was about health, but really, it was about control. About believing I could buy my way out of feeling less-than. The gummies are gone now. The emptiness stayed. #ControlIsExhausting #NotJustAboutTheScale #BodyCheckChronicles #Health #Diet
