CW: Severe dysphoria and depression, discussion of self-harm, relationship and familial issuesI can't be around here right now. Everything is setting of severe dysphoria and depression. I've had to completely disconnect from any talk about gender, sex, or relationships as it torpedoes my mental state immediately. I've even been avoiding my friends and "family." Family being my mother and sister, who are now on the verge of being tossed out of my fucking life. It's like everyone lacks empathy. No one understands the sheer immensity of the pain and suffering I'm going through right now. "Just cheer up. Smile and you'll be fine. That's no reason to be so upset." Thanks mom. Go fuck yourself. You've not exactly been the most helpful during my transition these last few years. The shadow of my ex continues to hang over me and I've destroyed some things in my house that remind me of him. I've been extremely not well if that's not clear. I even skipped out on making the topic this week cause I just can't. I'm glad I value my life so highly otherwise I might not be here right now. It's crossed my mind on more than one occasion recently, too. Even my therapist isn't fucking helping me. Ugh.

I just wish I was born a woman. I feel like a horrible facsimile. Like someone was given a doll and parts and told to do their best. This vagina. These breasts. They all feel horrendously fake. I feel like someone took a hobby knife to a Ken doll and just did what they could. I can't stand it. I just want to feel me. I wish I could've grown up properly. I wish I could have a uterus. I wish I could have children to raise and watch grow up and give a good life to. I wish I could've had all those experiences in life that cis-women just take for granted. I can't take this. I just can't.

I know almost none of you really know me or care about me and I apologize for shitting up the mega. All of you are so happy with what you're going through that you don't deserve to see the absolute trainwreck that is my life right now. I'm sorry, but with no one to properly just vent to, I resort to coming here. Legitimately if you don't like it and don't care to see this, I will stop. Just tell me in reply or PM. Seriously.

smh smh smh you must be destroyed now smh

[–] buh@hexbear.net 7 points 5 hours ago

got to watch Nosferatu in a theater all to myself, which was great because 1) I feel awkward watching sex scenes with other people, even if they're strangers several feet away from me, and 2) I got to sit in girly positions without feeling self conscious about it, and stand up when I felt tired of sitting

[–] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 7 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Been hearing that trans people have been getting bullied on RedNote. Is this true? I’ve been on that app for a year and never really noticed any strong anti-queer behavior compared to places like instagram

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 5 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

I don't know, but I've seen instances of Westerners leaving queerphobic comments, and then of course it also gets posted on Twitter and the like in order to twist narratives and show how much the Chinese actually hate LGBT people, when in reality they welcome everyone. That's one downside of everyone knowing about Xiaohongshu now, with bad actors creating accounts as well. Even some fascist losers like Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens decided to create an account there. I really hope people report this shit. Apparently the company is scrambling to get English speaking moderators. I hope that'll allow them to clamp down on this faster.

Western chuds will do everything in their power to stir shit up and disrupt this progressive development. Constant vigilance is required. A bullet to the head of these scumfuckers would be nicer, but hey.

ive successfully switched classes from an asshole teacher who took an insane problem with me to a class that seems to have a good and mature professor. Besides that whole debacle my week has been pretty good. I have a job now too!

CW: DysphoriaMy dysphoria has been building up this week. I still have cold symptoms, and can't wear proper make-up due to wiping my nose/mask that smears it. Almost cried a few times this week, either looking at my outfit or at my body or my face. Wearing eye makeup helps, but I still feel too nervous to wear mascara to work. Once my nails grow a bit more I think I need to start painting them. They were at a decent length last weekend, but I chickened out and cut them instead.

Also still worried about the passport, but my therapist wrote a very nice support letter that I hope clears things up for the passport agency.

::: spoiler cw relationship trauma, anxiety (but this is good news!!) I had the literal actual best fucking therapy appointment of my life yesterday, holy shit.

I have been struggling with like really bad anxiety lately, to the point where I've had trouble eating and sleeping. During a therapy appointment yesterday, I realized that a part of me was reliving a particularly horrible fight I had with my first domestic partner, in which I became quite physically ill after.

Since she's a parts therapist, she suggested that this part of me that makes me feel sick from anxiety might be what's known as an "Exile." The way I'd describe it is "I'm not okay and I don't know what's going to make it okay."

I can't get nexted spoilers working, so skip this paragraph if you don't want graphic imagery. I imagine it as a anthropomorphic heart with an arrow stuck in it, bleeding for 15 years, lol. (oh and most of the heart tissue is infected, too...)

She suggested that when I talk to people, I try to show up as my core self, instead of letting this part run things, and to treat it like I would a hurting friend.

So I sure did lose a couple of hours of sleep last night due to it flaring up, but I tried this method and despite being a bit sleep-deprived today, I feel absolutely great, the anxiety didn't take over, and today I feel like its possible for me to heal from this traumatic memory.

Thanks for listening, chat, I just needed to share :)

[–] yewler@hexbear.net 14 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I just remembered a thing I used to do a lot. I'd have a thought about one of my lady friends that included the word "she" or "her" and it would stun lock me and I'd just sit there thinking about the word and sometimes even saying it out loud and admiring the way it sounded and wondering why he and him couldn't sound as nice and thinking that unfair lol.

It's so funny to me thinking back to how CLUELESS I was in comparison to how obvious things should have been

[–] yewler@hexbear.net 13 points 14 hours ago

I still stunlock myself thinking about how nice she and her sound but now it's caused by thinking about myself haha

lmao if a scammer did that for me i'd probably just tell them i know it's a scam but i'm so flattered that i'll give them my credit card info anyway

[–] Tomboymoder@hexbear.net 9 points 13 hours ago

I didn’t know it was a scam until my wife forced me to hang up doggirl-sweat

[–] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 16 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

[–] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 15 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I feel silly for feeling like this lmao but I'm honestly so happy that I just got a nice used car

My old one was almost as old as I am and is falling apart and just a total POS at this point

The new (old) car is like ten years old and nothing fancy really but it's well maintained and clean and in really good condition and I somehow got it for 4 figures and it feels like an unfathomable amazing luxury to my broke ass that's used to everything in my life being frustrating shitty bullshit

Driving it home I was amazed by how nice the interior is and how it smells nice instead of faintly moldy and I felt like, underdressed for how nice it feels to me? Like this is a car somebody with their shit together probably drives and I'm a weirdo mess but goddamn this is one of the best things that's happened to me in ages and I'm really happy about it

[–] Wmill@hexbear.net 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

nothing fancy really but it's well maintained

This is the dream, I find my main issues with cars my family gets are underlining issues that could have been taken care of with just some diligence. I'm happy for you that you have something you can rely on and hope it lasts you a lifetime

[–] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 3 points 5 hours ago

no-copyright

Way past cool! (tysm, that was really nice)

Yeah, my parents and grandparents both had a bad habit of neglecting maintenance until something went wrong, and I'm gonna make myself be really diligent about keeping up on it with this

Everything under heaven is in utter chaos but my modest used car situation is excellent costanza-maoist
