Remember. You’re already there, our natural state is one of security and calm, it’s just the other mental stuff that gets in the way. We’re all going to come out of this so much stronger and better than we ever were!

Hey girls, I’m a guy suffering with this too...but you know what I keep reminding myself, it HAS to be for a reason. I don’t mean transition, I mean when we come out of this on the other side we will be so sure of ourselves

It’s okay to be lost for awhile. I know it’s scary and the longer it goes on the scarier it can feel, but sometimes people just need to wander for a bit to rediscover who they really are. You may not feel a connection to some of the old stuff you used to like. That’s okay. You can still play with make up. You can still learn new techniques and skills. If it doesn’t feel as fun as it used to, so what. It will again someday when this is all over. Keep doing it and let it feel however it feels.

Omg I couldnt have said it better. I feel sooo exactly the same like i just wanted to be a succesful Woman and find myself a man and have his children. Now my life has just drowned. Its like all the potential in me is gone and im not getting the most out of life and im missing everything because i feel like this. I cant help but be jalouse of pretty girls who are doing good because i want to be like them, i wouldve been like them but my mental health is ruining that person. Why do i have to go trough this... i alwyas had my passions in life, i liked fashion and makeup and even that my mental health took from me. Suddenly i dont feel the joy of it snymore and all my future dreams make me feel numb instead of passionate and joyful...

I know exactly. Its like i have a whole identity crisis while i always used to know who i was. I had a strong personality and i was actually exciting to live my life. Now its all just emptyness and im anxious 24/7 i miss the old me so much. I truly loved life. I miss me who could just watch yt tutorials endlessy and dream one day i would be as fashionable as them. Now it doesnt make me happy snymroe. And people say that you change so its okay that i will find new interests but its like no! That actually is me and im not changing its just that my mentall health is turning against me and its killing my identity. I always couldnt wait to be older to get a boyfriend and wear heels and all thst but now Im at an age where i actually am allowed to do all that but now i cant. My mental Health is blocking that and it makes me so mad. At this age i should be happy, partying doing my makeup. But now all of thst doesnt make me feel like i used to. I miss those feelings so much. My dreams got ruined before i could even live them. Not once did i get to go to a party when i still was okay. But suddenly boys hit me up and people invite me and then i feel like this? Its so unfair. I wish i could feel alive again. Even music i cant enjoy anymore

This also made me feel soo inpure and not the innocent girl i used to be. I never had a boyfriend and i couldnr wait to give him my all and he had to be worth it. But now i feel like all my innocense is gone. Like my mind is just poisoned with the disgusting thoughts.

Finally slept well today! Which is nice. Regardless, I feel like it has destroyed who I am. Its been over a year and a half, and I keep overthinking and questioning my identity and I can’t let it go to the point where I feel that my future is certain, even though I’ve liked myself the entire time and had a pretty stable idea of who I was. My mind has gathered enough proof. I love being a woman, and I don’t want a different body. I wasn’t born in the wrong body. I am obsessing over my voice, which needs no changes, and my chest. After speaking to a friend of a friend, I’m afraid I’ll want a sex change when I finally have a partner. I’m terrified. I don’t know if anyone can relate. I don’t know how to get over this and my first ERP session is in about a week. How do I even go about this? I feel like a monster to my own family.

I feel like I’ve lost who I am , even since my depression and ocd started. I don’t even know what I like anymore:(( I doubt everything I think and it’s so draining because I just want to feel like my old self again😭 I feel like I have no motivation to get better which is bothering me so much because I want too but something is holding me back from doing what I need to do :/ with all my thoughts and doubts , I feel like I can’t trust myself . I don’t know if I’m the only one that feels this much pain

Today I woke up and immediately was flooded with intrusive thoughts. I was thinking about how I want to remembered when my time on earth is finished. I want to be remembered by my kindness and my heart. I want to be remembered by the lives i’ve changed. But then it hit me. What if you want to be a girl? What if you’re just telling yourself you don’t want to be a girl? I shouldn’t be scared, my family would love me no matter what I was. But this.. This is taking its toll on me. People call me maam all the time. I have feminine features and qualities.. It makes me question everything I know about my life. But I think what makes it worse is that i’m scared but don’t feel scared? Like I don’t feel intense fear like I once did. I know that I don’t want to be a girl. I don’t want boobs or long hair and nails. I have feminine qualities but I just exist. And this morning it’s hitting me very hard. I hate TOCD. I hate that I can’t just have one moment of peace. That it finds ways to seep into my life by finding areas i’m weakest in. I read other people’s stories and kinda do checking with it. And to make it all worse my for you page is FILLED with trans tiktok’s and peoples experiences. It’s making me mad. Why can’t I just be happy? Like everyone else in my house? Why did I inherit this stupid fucking disorder? And why do I question everything single thing about myself. First it was fear I was going to hurt someone and be a monster. And now it’s fucking thoughts of me wanting to be a girl?? Anyways have a nice day guys.
