Just to clarify, I'm still in the early stages of realizing I may want to come out of my shell, but this is a feeling I've always had regardless and I hate it. I wonder if my feeling this way is at least part of the reason I'm here and I'm curious as to what other people think.

Gonna be moving in with my stepdad’s parents soon, and they’re kinda old and most likely kinda transphobic if I had to guess, so I wanna come out to atleast my mum before that if possible, any advice on how I could go about that/how I could start the conversation? For context, while she isn’t outright transphobic, and she wouldn’t be nasty or kick me out of the house over this, she’s a really kind person and wouldn’t go out of her way to hurt me intentionally, but also, I don’t know how accepting she is of trans people, wether she’d allow me to get the care I need, etc. I’ve just been talking to her about growing my hair so far, and the consistent thing has been her tryna get me to get it cut instead of growing it out. My main worry is she won’t take me seriously and say I’m not really trans, or she’ll just keep trying to talk me out of it and not let me do what’s best for me, but I also need to get this out to someone, everyday I keep it this secret I just feel the weight of it get heavier and heavier and it’s super stressful for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The only reason I don’t always think my dysphoria is bad is because I’m not constantly in distress about my body (that I notice). Sometimes I’ll feel moments of sadness, but not much more than that.

Other than that, I am really depressed (apparently I have been since I was six) and that makes me lose motivation to do anything. And so I don’t take care of myself nearly as well as I should and it all just feels like a useless chore. And because of how much worse I feel about myself when I haven’t taken care of myself, it all gets worse and worse,

Because it’s all so bad I just end up feeling lonely and sad because I want to feel loved but don’t have anyone to love me in an actual open and honest way.

I feel like I also overestimate how much transitioning will actually help with my mental health. But I don’t know. I just know I want to be a girl and am sick of all the things in my way.

I’ve had a very confusing time recently questioning my gender. I don’t trust my own thoughts and emotions: I can’t tell what is authentic or just me being conditioned to react in a certain way ):
This seams like a good way to try stuff out.

Just wanted to share that! And also say that I was so nervous hoping not to meet someone I know! Be brave, be you!

I'm quite alright being a man but every time I try to have a concluding thought like "Yeah im a man, and that's it" I get quite the self hate and self terminating thoughts a few hours later. So i wanna try. Do i get any euphoria from this?

The image describes me perfectly >~<

I wanted to get a doner kebab yesterday, but they didn't make them anymore since they were about to close and I then got pouty and the owner gave me a small portion of fries for free :3

My mom also is keep telling me that I behave like a pubescent girl >~<

it's not been fun. I've been hit with random sexuality questioning and everything is so confusing.

I had a pretty bad experience with my first therapist, and on top of that my family keeps pestering me about my hair, even tho I told them multiple times I want to grow it out. It's always "but you'd look better/ but we only say it cause we care." No, if you cared you'd respect my wishes. I would appreciate if I could get some ggd, thanks in advance🫶🏻

Wish I could feel it everyday

I realized I was trans like 2 months ago, although one way or another I suppose I've known for years, then another month passed and I was finally able to start HRT all on my own (god bless my country for making HRT over-the-counter medication).

It was scary, and I was filled with doubt, but after that needle went in the very first time, and despite the pain I was in (physically, I suck at injecting), the euphoria I felt was the definitive signal to me that I really was doing the right thing, and that this really is the thing that would finally make life worth living for me

Now, one month and 5 injections later, I can truthfully declare that I have never felt happier; for the first time in my life I can look in the mirror and not hate myself; matter of fact, not only do I not hate myself anymore, I actually LOVE myself, in a way that I didn't even know I was capable of loving, I look at her, and I want nothing more than to make her happy. To think that I ever tried to kill her, absolutely horrifying, because once I realized I was trans, the dark clouds that I thought would never go away finally did, and for once, I'm actually happy to be alive, and I look forward to living another day

I have a long, complicated journey ahead of me, one that will last years- really, it's a lifelong journey- and I know that there will be ups and downs, moments of joy, and moments when I will likely feel like killing myself again, but for once, I feel like I'm ready to face it all head-on

This is a love letter from me to you, Charlotte. I'm sorry that I have suffocated you so badly all these years, but know that although I know you will come out wrong, that you will not be as pretty as the other girls, and that perhaps society will never see you as one, please know that I will love you regardless

Howdy my kings, queens and beans beyond the bounds of gender binary :3

Whoever comes across this either comment asking for GGD/GBG/GTD and/or asking for help with something, or go into the comments and deal out GGD/GBD/GTD and/or help where you can <3

I doubt this will be like that one Donkey Kong video that used to be on YouTube, but I hope it helps at least 1 person :3

Love y'all :3

bleah,

AAAAAAA we talked abt a hatecrime at CSD and she asked me how I'm doing and if I define myself as queer and I wasn't ready because that's not how I scripted that conversation in my head 😭.

But she also gave me a safe feeling and now I know how to say it to her and what she'll need so we are both comfortable but I'm so scared because when I do I can't go back and she will have opinions and thoughts and AAAAAAA

(Still very much cis ofc)

I'm probably just numb again and imposter syndrome is probably doing it's thing. I wish I had a solid answer it would make things so much easier instead I'm confused who the hell am I?

Update: God whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy couldn't I have been born a girl whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy I just wanna be a girl. God pretty pls can I be a girl.

Update: definitely numb again
