Popsugar Beauty Beauty News Inside Out Makeup Challenge These Makeup Looks Spotlight Stigmas Surrounding Mental Health Illnesses May 25, 2017 by Emily Orofino First Published: January 23, 2017 View On One Page Photo 7 of 10 ADVERTISEMENT () Start Slideshow This post is a little different than what I normally share. I saw @lilmoonchildd post about mental illness, and she encouraged others to participate in this #insideoutchallenge. I am certainly no makeup artist, but I thought this would be a fun way to express myself. I've struggled with #depression as an adult. I always struggle, some days more than others, to put on a "normal" face, to try to act like everything is ok. Part of it is the desire to keep others from knowing how I really feel. Part of it is trying to "fake it 'til I make it". I feel like the me I want to be, the happy me, the at peace me, the me that is satisfied with life despite my circumstances, is RIGHT THERE but I can't reach her. She's trapped behind a brick wall. #lilmoonchildd #endthestigma #depressionlies #insideout #mentalhealth #brickwall #trapped #letstalkaboutit #instagood #mentalillness #makeupaddict #fakeittilyoumakeit #instamood #instahealth A photo posted by H.
