Is going to a trans support group bad?

I am at the very beginning of transition/questioning and have no one to actually talk to...

I joined a discord based one and it was a serious mistake

One of the first clinics I went to after DIY had a poster about a support group. Also one of the doctors mentioned about it. I’m kinda of a red neck and I was quiet the whole time and realised it was just a bunch of woke liberals.

it's gonna be boomerhons and sweaty no-hrt r/traaaaaa "omg look at this blahaj meme xddd skirt go spinny xddd" bitches, unfortunately. I got by with /frengen/ and it worked out but hey...

If it’s irl, I think it’s worth a shot.

Sometimes it won’t be for you (I won’t lie, it could even make you feel shitty). The quality of your experience comes down to what the attendees and facilitators are like in your area.

All that said, I think having irl trans friends is really valuable, no matter what point you’re at in your transition. I think subjecting yourself to something that might be uncomfortable is worth the potential reward of the experience.

I went to a trans support group and the two passing trannies misgendered me so I found a new one where I was the most passingest
>>
>>36368750
It will most likely be shit and full of enbies buut you might be able to make useful connections
there were two youngshit trans girls on blockers at mine and a slightly fembrained poonie who i helped get on t and met cool people through

Go for a few weeks even if its cringe, get the contact details of normalish trans people

The entire reason why I didn't just kill myself during the first six months of HRT (notoriously rough period) was because I was going to a trans support group.
Just being around people that get what you are going through and you can actually directly talk about this stuff with is such a help. Also meeting my FtM best friend helped me out so much.
>>36368859
In my experience almost everyone was a zoomer. No bommerhons and the few actual hons there where actively attempting to improve themselves to pass better.
Literally the only people I did not like were the gig young shits. I swear being young enough to have puberty blockers be available gives them such a superiority complex. Like they cannot even imagine a world where trans issues were just not talked about or wildly known and there just were no support systems in place even if you did figure yourself out early.

I joined one on discord too and it was a bunch of gigalateshit hons that turned out to all be pedophiles
>>
>>36368865
Everyone thought I was a FtM
>>
>>36368959
mine was full of transbians and had multiple polycules who would police anything you wanted to talk about according to their autistic rules then there was also one "trans man" who wore a dress every day
>>
>>36368750
i wish i had a troon friend but I would need someone equally self hating and okay with misgendering as myself and doubt anyone like that would go to a support group
>>
>>36368750
Don't do that
>>
>>36369014
I'm the fucking goddess of self hate

I will say it depends. I'm doing LGBT group therapy at my uni, and it helps a lot! They all are very chill and accepting and we hang out a lot. It's not trans focused, sure, but we talk a lot about trans issues. I've made a lot of good friends too! If you have access to group therapy I'd go for it.

I go to another support group at my LGBT center that gets boomerhons and r/traa people. I do my best to ignore them, but even the boomerhons are based and have good advice. There is no saving the brainrotted cringey r/traa hons, unfortunately. I would suggest you go to a group, but pick and choose carefully who you interact with.

DO NOT give everyone your attention. I was desperate for attention at the beginning of my transition, and ended up getting sexually harassed by a boomerhon during a shopping trip with them. Just be very defensive of yourself and your attention, and pick and choose the people you'd like to be friends with.

Mines is okay. Its a bunch of normies

Where do you even find support groups like these if I finished school :(

If you can't do in real life ones, VRC has many trans support groups. You don't need VR to join.

Although VRC made me realize being a rave catgirl in VR was enough.

It’s fine if you’re early transition.
I stopped going to my local one. I’m a hot passoid and well imagine if you took a pretty girl near porn star level and put her in a room with a bunch of extremely autistic Chris chan types, I didn’t want to be raped so I stopped going.

As an early transitioned you should be fine but yea dangerous for passoids
