QotD is a feature dedicated to answering questions from Piccadilly’s 5 Year Question a Day Memory Journal. The journal states its purpose is to help reflect back on daily routine and to act as a “time capsule” of experiences. As someone who laments their awful memory, I thought this was a wonderful tool and opportunity.

When you look in the mirror what do you see?

I typically don’t look in mirrors unless to fix my hair or look at something specific. I have a toxic relationship with both my body and how it physically looks mainly because of a disease I have struggled with since puberty. As with a previous post where I stated ignorance truly is bliss sometimes, I feel that way about this. Because honestly, looking in the mirror only creates a toxic mindset for me.
