Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
very sad
I cannot deal with these emotions anymore. The dysphoria, the fear, the hopelessness, the self hate, it is too much. My coping "skills" are simply inadequate.Sorry for all the sad posting, I will try and control myself more. spoiler sh
self harm
sh'd for the first time in years. Shitty fucking tool barely did anything. I don't know why I'm posting. Shitty attention whore I suppose.Give yourself a hug from me, this one internet stranger. I believe things will get better for you.
I really hope so.
I understand, I can never believe it for myself, but I can believe it for other people. And then I remember that there is no fundamental difference between me and other people, and maybe the things I believe for other people can apply to myself too.
idk if that's helpful. But I hope that you're able to get some good sleep, maybe drink some water or get a snack. I'm sorry, I wish things were easier.
I understand the feeling kind of.
I would always see people on Twitter or Reddit and trans-timelines and stuff and it just felt like the things possible for other people just weren’t for me.
It lead to a lot of bitterness and resentment…still kinda does.
mental health discussion
I'm going through this right now too — I have really bad mental health and I see people with similar issues as mine (ADHD, OCD, etc etc) but they're still succeeding in life while I'm not, and I feel bitterness and shame over that. I also feel a sense of jealousy when I see people who got on HRT really quickly, when it's been almost two years since I decided I wanted HRT and I still am not on it.So yeah, shit is tough.
Oh my god, you poor thing, wish I could literally reach far enough to comfort you.
your spoiler, self harm
Whatever it is that you did to yourself, clean it up, take some tylenol, put on bandages if you need and if the bleeding is bad go to emerg. If you're scared you'll do more, go to emerg - psych holds suck but it can also get you a doc and resources to help deal with what youre going through.Self harm is a reaction to intense emotions, it's not the best possible reaction obviously because of the harm part but it's understandable. No you're not being an "attention whore" you're dealing with VERY INTENSE emotions and feelings that a lot of people probably couldn't handle. If you feel ready and have the financial ability, find some therapy especially CBT. It will help you work through this in a much healthier way. You may need medications as well to help you through this patch but that's up to a psych.
You're worthy of love and care, I know it's weird to hear from an internet stranger but I really believe it...
I wish you could too.

Been doing therapy for a while. I was feeling better for a while but with all these fucking gender issues its not doing much. No replacement for your situation and society sucking I suppose.Thank you.
