Sometimes asking for help IS progress! 🧡 #disability #awareness #mentalhealth

I used to cry and get frustrated over how many “lost days” are part of my regular life. But those strong emotions just made impacted my body and mood even more. Now I try to accept the “rest days”, and enjoy the days I feel strong or energized.✨

Your video is very heart warming. You did amazing, you are amazing, your progress is amazing. I could see the difference between the first and last video you showed. I love your videos btw ❤❤

i really needed to hear this. i've missed over a month of karate practice because of my disabilities, and it really does feel awful, especially when it's something you love doing. thank you for this video, for reminding me that taking care of myself, my body and mind, is still progress <3

“Sometimes NOT doing sth is progress.” I really feel this… I was at the dining hall at work today with so many people and it was packed full as well. I had my over-ear headphones but still I was so overwhelmed by everything (conversations, the topics, noises, people talking, socializing, smells, lighting…). When I got back to work and went to the toilet finally being alone I felt that I lost so much energy just in these 30 minutes that are supposed to be a break… I sat on the floor for a few minutes trying to calm myself down and it was really helpful - looking after myself and “stopping”, “doing nothing”. For you reading this. Please take a break if you need it. Hydrate. Do what you need to do in order to feel better🫶🏼

Realizing that you need help and asking for it is a foundational step. It is heartwarming when you realize how many people are ready and willing to support you

You're channel makes me so happy, thank you❤

This lady is a great ambassador for disability awareness.

You're so amazing Zara❤

I’m a dancer so I get it I once had the worst pain in my side that I’ve ever had and I couldn’t go to dance for four weeks and then when I came back I was very behind but my friends were all so supportive and I’m sure u have friends like that too ❤❤

Thank you so much for this! As a fellow chronically ill person, I really needed to hear this! 🥰

Dance and stretching have ALWAYS been my sources of discipline and self-love with my tics/disorders ❤ Setting goals with your actual body, like reaching a stretch, can make you feel like you DO have control.. I still dance alone on my days off 💃🥰

You’re so incredibly inspiring and you got this you’re doing so well 🩵🩵🩵

Only recently I discovered your channel. But I'm very happy about it. I suffer from hemophilia and have been struggling with depression and anxiety for many years. But seeing you and how you are doing in life gives me strength and a lot of positive energy. 😁 I wish you a lot of joy and more better days. 🥰😊

Thank you 😢❤

You are so amazing! You make all of our days. You have made so much progress and you’re so strong. I love your vids so much, they keep me going even through the darkest of days, thank you. Stay strong everyone ❤

I feel I can relate to you so much. I have ME and Fibromyalgia, it's so frustrating, people usually only see you when are well so many don't believe you have problems. It's also frustrating making people believe you, benefits people especially. There is nothing worse than others thinking you are faking things, you just want them to try one day in your body! Well done for putting your life out there to the world xx

Thank you for sharing. I needed to hear this today You're inspirational. I don't have a disability but I am chronic fatique. Sometimes it makes that makes sad. I do miss out on a lot of things people my age can do because I don't have the energy. You make me look at it differently

Really felt this thank you Zara

You made my day I have been struggling at stuff

The tears in your eyes when you were talking about it broke my heart
