Her statement about the relapse "it'll affect me for the next few years" is really telling about her negative mindset and eagerness to jump to conclusions that make her miserable
When I relapsed recently (after having the best couple of months where I managed to actually have eyebrows and lashes for the first time in a decade!), I trained myself to repeat "you've managed it once, you'll manage it again, they'll grow back, it'll be okay" in order to not pile on the misery that inevitably would lead to MORE pulling.
Imagine how much worse it'd be if instead of those mantras, I just said "well, that's you absolutely fucked for the next few years". Absolutely awful mindset
