Didn't have a chance to write up a detailed post, either on a fruit or the topic I was originally thinking about. I think they're neat and they taste good.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

sad, venting, voice dysphoria and hopelessnessI know I post like this a lot, and have recently. I'm remembering and thinking about the replies people have given so don't think it was a waste of effort or anything. Just really sad about it again today/yesterday and sometimes this helps I guess. Also I do have a job again, pretty much just need to schedule my on boarding now.

tbh the thoughts have been looping so much I'm not sure where the "start" is. I guess I'm dreading/scared/know the next few years are going to be really bad. And that's minimum, I honestly don't have any reason to think in a few years they'll be better. I'm going to have to come out in that time. My dad is neck deep in evangelical shit and I have a few much younger siblings that make things harder as well. I have no prospects for getting a real job that would let me be independent and have no idea how to get that. Obviously the economy is going to shit so how's that going to work out for me. I don't have any qualifications but graduating high school. And obviously hrt is going to make boymoding forever not really work, which is a problem both for finding work and at home.

Can't voice train. Hurts too much, I sound too cringy, I literally cant. Between that and my frame I'm obviously never going to pass or be remotely happy with sounding like this. Just thinking about it makes me want to- eh. Not worth CWing but I'm sure you can imagine. I hate it and my voice changing unironically ruined my life. I can't. Disgusting and ruined. Probably forever. Going to die mad.

I can't deal with any of this, I can't deal with real life. Everyone thinks I'm able to build a life I'm happy with but I can't. All I want is to just disassociate forever. The government should just give me money so I can just rot somewhere and never be seen or heard from again. I hate life, I hate being perceived, I hate talking, I hate having to do shit, I hate society and I certainly hate the idea of being trans in this society.

Anyway idk what I'm going to do about all this, probably just drag things out as long as I can stand. I have no faith in my ability to actually make it through the transition (assuming that there's even an "end").

Having a hyperbolic-time-chamber would be a great deal for reinventing myself honestly and not just getting stronger wise, the fantasy of just putting everything on pause more or less. I think I could handle the loneliness pretty well as I do what I need in those 2 years.

Some people seem so fucking happy to be trans and others seem miserable, I’m in the miserable camp but I want to be happy. Happy trans people, what’s your secret?? I want in, let me in

bottom surgery uncertaintyI got invited to a webinar about surgery yesterday, and it reminded me that I put in a referral last year to get vaginoplasty.

I uhh don't think I want to do it, which I didn't expect. My bottom dysphoria has not been too present lately, and since the definition of "woman" in my mind has been broadened outside of cis standards, I just kinda feel like... I dont need to.

dysphoria postinggod I can't wait until I don't feel visceral hatred of my body, face, voice, mannerisms, and general appearance

Surely that has to happen eventually, right? Right? Right???

dysphoria raving, doomer shitDid I permanently fuck my brain by deciding not to look at myself for years?
So many girlies make posts like β€œX months on estrogen and I can finally see(or start to see) a girl in the mirror.” Or β€œI can actually stand to look at myself because I can see the changes that are happening.”

I feel like if I look in the mirror after all this time and don’t see a cis woman it’s jover, not that I can be sure my brain would even acknowledge I pass if I did with my potential BDD.

There is a really cynical part of me that thinks estrogen isn’t β€œmagic” and all the baby trans will eventually be bitter and disappointed like me when that reality hits.
But I’m hoping I am just mentally ill and delusional.

Self criticism time. I always thought the concept of bibliotherapy was bogus. As in doing therapy through a book.

But I think reading Sisters of Dorley Hall is actively helping me work through a bunch of stuff.

sex/masturbationEstrogen has destroyed my ability to just mindlessly crank one out based on pure friction. Generally, this feels great. But I feel so disconnected from myself sexually. How can I speed up the process of learning myself again?

I may be forever flat chested but there is always the hope that I can get a fat ass

Not like I will ever exercise to do so, but I can pretend and imagine

If you care about looking cool in front of people tell them you listen to drum n bass when they ask for your music preferences instead of just saying video game OSTs. If they ask for any recommendations look something up so you don't default to saying Bomberman or ridge racer, not talking from experience everyone knows I'm a dweeb anyway
