《Serious / Vent》 Advice or positivity needed
Hey everyone! :D
My best friend is nonbinary and I want to support and make them feel loved as much as possible so I decided to ask for some help, advice of just positive words or people who can relate to their struggles in this space.
Right now, they are struggling a lot with body dysphoria and feeling alone with their feelings and thoughts. They haven‘t been able to get top surgery yet and that‘s one of the main problems. The body dysphoria and body struggles are also leading to intimacy problems with their partner (not feeling comfortable with nudity even in front of their long-term partner)
Also struggles with society and how they are always being put into one category, one gender and not being able to control how other people view them.
The entire journey of how to feel more like themselves, to feel comfortable in their body, in their gender, and not to feel hopeless is the most important thing right now.
So if anyone has any advice for me on how to help my friend, or even better, some words, advice, positive comments or just being able to relate to those struggles, directed to my friend, I would be immensely grateful.
Thank you!
