Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I'm in desperate need of at least three different types of therapy at this point. General therapy for my abysmal self-image, gender therapy for all my trans related problems, and cognitive behavioral therapy for my ADHD. Feels like I'm so far away from living anything close to a normal, happy life madeline-sadeline

I know theres an audiobook you might be able to find it online :) i struggle with reading too, i havent finished it and ive started it twice. A good trick is to look at the contents and reas the parts that interest you, dont worry about the order!

i started hrt in 2017 and the social bit is the worst, i tend to avoid a lot of social interactions, because as much as i tell myself it doesnt hurt it really does if im at a big event. I dont ever come out to anyone, i just introduce myself with my name and dress in the same tomboy style i always did.

its hard out there, the social shit is why people detransition. Be good to yourself because noone else will be. <3
