[CW: Transphobia]As a non-binary person, I now have to operate under the assumption that any trans person I meet has a good chance of hating my guts simply because of my gender identity (ironic). I really fucking hate that I cannot undo this mindset because of how common transmedicalism and enbyphobia in the trans community has become.

I can't even see a post on social media that says something like "Trans Rights!!!" and not feel uncomfortable because my initial reaction has become "Does that include me, though? Do you support my rights?". I will always identify as trans, but I'm heavily frightened by the possibility that transphobic attacks I experience are not just gonna be from mostly cis people.

Now, at every fucking turn, I have to ponder if I belong in any trans spaces or not. After going through harsh amounts of abusive transphobia from cis people, having trans people go out of their way to exclude me has done more to make me feel alone than anything else, and it's absolutely not what I need right now.

i had to stop talking to a friend because they couldn't stop spouting transmed talking points despite being nb (and claiming to no longer be a transmed) themselves. they had a lot of self loathing going on and i hope they're ok, but i couldn't deal with constantly hearing them policing who's allowed to be trans and the way they'd talk about their own gender

transmedicalism is a scourge and i can promise that the mod team here is always going to do our best to avoid any of it from infecting c/traaa, and if you ever notice anything do not hesitate to call it out

I had the same experience except I had to switch schools altogether because the school admins wouldn't get them to fuck off, I credit them with being the reason I eventually ended up dropping out of highschool altogether.
