Um ataque de pânico fez a blogueira e maquiadora Yasaman Gheid, que vive em Vancouver, no Canadá, deixar uma festa da empresa onde trabalha, em dezembro. Para os colegas, ela deu como desculpa uma dor de cabeça. O episódio serviu como impulso para que, um tempo depois, ela lançasse um desafio de maquiagem com o propósito de jogar luz sobre o sofrimento causado por doenças mentais. Assim nasceu a hashtag “InsideOutChallenge” no Instagram (algo como o desafio do interior para fora, em tradução livre do inglês). Para mostrar que a síndrome do pânico, assim como outros males, tem dois lados, ela publicou um vídeo na rede social com um tutorial diferente de maquiagem. Nele, ela divide o rosto em duas metades: em uma faz uma maquiagem normal e na outra, uma pintura que remete ao seu estado emocional. A hashtag ganhou adesão e outras mulheres passaram a compartilhar seus rostos maquiados dessa forma, para mostrar que também enfrentavam doenças mentais.

For something that is so influential and life altering, most people can't tell that you have it. There usually aren't any physical symptoms, unless you create them yourself, so it's invisible. And thanks to the stigma surrounding mental health, people like myself often choose to keep it that way, struggling in silence. Now that I've decided to be open about what I deal with, I've been thinking a lot about my own coping mechanisms. I am more vocal and I don't really lie anymore, but I still downplay it. I still choose to put on a happy face and act the way that I've been told is acceptable. "Keep it to yourself" "Stop being negative" "Don't be a burden" This kind of talk is the reason my mental illness has mostly gone untreated for over 10 years! I choose not to listen to these people anymore. My struggles are real and if you think they're an inconvenience to you, you should try living with them constantly in your head! The only burden is coping alone. The #insideoutchallenge asks you to share what your mental illness does to you. My depression clouds everything. Life is muted, muddy, and monochromatic. My anxiety breaks through that darkness, creating cracks of blinding panic and leaving scars that never quite heal ?? I'm clearly not a makeup artist here, but I think the idea of actually wearing your mental illness is incredibly important. There's NO need to hide or put on a front. I have zero shame. The more open we are the easier it will be for the world to get it #endthestigma #stigmafree #mentalhealthawareness #anxiety #depression #makeup #makeupchallenge

Fev 25, 2017 às 11:29 PST #Repost @kj.cosmetology with @repostapp ??? #insideoutchallenge I have two semi-obscure forms of OCD, also called BFRBs, called Trichotillomania and Dermatillomania. They are incredibly common, but not often talked about. Trichotillomania, a disorder that involves recurrent and irresistible urges to pull one's body hair, affects over 200,000 people in the US per year. Dermatillomania, the repetitive picking at one's own skin to the extent of causing damage, affects up to 5.4% of the general population. These disorders may seem to be nothing more than a little embarrassing, but they are often accompanied by anxiety disorders and potentially other forms of OCD. Personally, I pull at my eyebrows and eyelashes, and I compulsively pick at my fingers and face. I am currently in behavioral therapy, hopefully soon moving on to anxiety medication. This is (only part of) my mental health story. Your mental health is never something to be ashamed of. Share your story. Thank you @lilmoonchildd for creating such a wonderful creative outlet to raise awareness for mental health, it means the world.
