cw: internalized transphobiaVacillating between loving that I'm trans and hating that I'm trans. I've been keeping it close to my chest because it feels like uncertainty, but my wife called me out yesterday saying that it sounds like I already know and just don't want to accept it.

Looking for in person support groups to feel like I belong somewhere again.

Hoping for a time where I can love myself finally 💜

brainwormed languagelol i joined a discord server for /tttt/ brainwormed trans people and they have a selfie channel and despite everyone complaining about being hons everyone who’s posted is a bdd passoid, i’m starting to think i’m the only actual hon there. i’ve not posted a pic though cause i don’t fully trust 4chan people with my face but i am kind of curious what advice they’d give me

anyway i’m actually feeling pretty good for once recently despite that, i might be hanging out with a friend soon so i really hope that pans out

My biggest problem with buying fem clothes is that when I get home from work all I want to do is put on pajamas and lay around. So I have few pairs of leggings and comfy cute night shirts. But that's not "going out" clothes. And even then, I'm too afraid to go into my own backyard in leggings and a cute shirt. sadness

I did wear leggings and a cute top to one of my therapy sessions because my therapist recommended it, but the anxiety nearly killed me.

cw: mental health, dysphoriaStarted an antidepressant a couple weeks ago, and it's at a low enough dose it does not help me at all, but the side effects have been so nasty. Constant dissociation. I looked in the mirror the other night and had extreme facial dysphoria. It felt like I was looking at a demon :(

I think the side effects have actually made me even more stressed too. I'm frequently feeling the beginning stages of panic attacks. Not fun :/

On a more positive note, loving my new dresses, and I have a couple extremely supportive friends who make me feel very loved 💜 Things will get better :)

Oof I feel that on the "Beginning stages of a panic attack all the time". It sucks so hard. I've had some relief from it but it's back now and I've been dealing with it for almost 3 months

Does someone know some text-based ressources for voice training? I know of the youtube channel, but I work better with written instructions. I just have an easier time understanding and internalizing the information when it's written.

I have started actually trying out voice training excercises, and have realized that my vibes based approach of just humming music as high as I can without my voice breaking, maybe wasn't that bad after all.

Also imitating the sounds my dog used to make, has given me a bigger vocal range.

I am still going to continue with the actual excercises, but I'll also continue just playing with my voice while having a walk or something. I used to sind a lot as a child, before my voice dropped.

Chat I promise I won't liveblog about this, but I gotta say nothing beats the feeling of cracking the spine on some trans litfic and getting blasted in the face with cool, weird or just unfamiliar stuff. The stone-blunt first chapter is a genre hallmark, really.

How do I explain, both to other people and myself, these feelings (especially why they are new). It just feels really weird coming out of no where and saying "hey guys, I know you've never seen me as anything but a guy and I've never really had a problem with that, until now when I'm suddenly very bothered by the idea, but also gender is some innate thing I was born with."

I feel like I can't be trans or I'd have known/felt dysphoria for longer :kitty-cri: but also I don't want to be a cis man.

I got told today by my endo that I likely have PMDD (Pre-menstrual Dysphoric Disorder). Considering there’s not a ton of research on the matter, he says it’s hard to say for certain if that’s the case, but will be treating it as such. Hoping that it can be diminished somewhat cause it is so debilitating.

Edit: Added a link for info.

internalized transphobiaI follow a trans woman on TikTok who has a full beard, a receding hairline, and a really hairy chest. But she makes tiktoks in dresses and low cut shirts and is now out at work and doing that at her day job as well. And I guess I’m both bewildered and jealous that she can do that. I’m absolutely terrified to just look like a man in a dress. And my body hair is so thick all over the place that I just don’t see any way out of that.

Fic idea:

Egg visits silent Hill. Wakes up in the other world as a woman.

Haunted by manifestations of dysphoria that eventually lead to self acceptance. Themes of fear and sexuality.

Someone get on it. Thank me later.
