Anonymous asked: are you trans*? i don't mean to be rude mate, but i am a female to male transgerder and i need advice on how to deal with my depression and dysphoria.
Hey anon. I don’t think I’ve ever actually said it on this blog thing, but I am anftm as well. I’m not a trained professional by anymeans, and with depression you should really talk to a councellor, I’m not sure if you’re in grade shcool or in college or uni or anything, but if you can see a professional about that it would definately be smart. As for dysphoria, I just try to keep myself as busey as possible, and while that is tireing, it does work to an extext. I find that the worst time is just before bed, when I have to take off my binder and am alone, that’s usually when I’ at my lowest, however I just remind myself that while nothing seems to be working out transition wise, eventually I will get to where I want to be with all this, and so will you. I’m not saying you have to transition, for some people it’s enough to just be out to themselves. Just try to be as positive as you can be. Keep your head up. I know that this crap is terrifying, but you just gotta own it, you know, just be yourself, with that will come self confidence, and confidence seems to be (for me at least) dysphorias arch nemisis. hope this helps. if you need to talk any time, just message me. and if you dont want this public, come off anon and we can just chat.
