Michaela Studena criticized the evaluation of people based on their weight and stated that obese individuals generally know how they look, so there is no need to remind them of it. She described that as a child she was chubby, and due to the taunts from her classmates and experiences with PE teachers, she felt ashamed and did not enjoy sports. Later, when she combined work with studying, she ate almost nothing and, according to her, reached her highest weight. Health complications prompted her to strengthen her back muscles and start taking care of her body for health reasons, not appearance. She lost 15 kilograms and found her way to recreational sports. According to her, people began to treat her differently, as if her character, intelligence, or worth had changed, despite her remaining the same Míša. Studena also pointed out that people may have difficult experiences behind them that those around them are unaware of. She urged people not to share "before and after" photos and to treat others kindly instead of giving unsolicited comments. At the age of 40, she stated that she came to terms with her appearance, aging, and wrinkles, and learned to be kind to herself. #telo #sebeprijeti #mentalhealth (translated)

Nayami wrote that she will be discharged from the clinic next week. In a reflection on her last stream, she reported that her untreated AuDHS had led to burnout and had been recognized and diagnosed as being strongly pronounced. The medication helps, but it is not yet optimally adjusted; at the same time, she asked whether her overthinking had disappeared. Years of masking and adapting, along with the constant fear of doing something wrong, had caused her to lose sight of herself, Nayami wrote. She no longer wants that. She is gradually building a routine, adapting her environment, and striving to be more honest with herself and to accept herself. The journey feels good and right, and she is ready to involve her followers in it. She will come to Polaris, but due to the overwhelming situation there, she will only be seen on screen. Bloccy will take care of the booth; an update will follow. #MentalHealth #Selbstakzeptanz #Burnout (translated)
