how many ppl go trans just because they see it as a way to "start over"?

ive met some trans folk in my college but there is a very obvious separation between those who were just dysphoric and those who were losers that just wanted a new identity

maybe they were losers with no comunity, maybe they just get mindfucked by either LGBT hugboxes (wich are pretty aluring when you are a lonely male), or maybe they are trying to get away from a disgusting tradcon family and getting a new name and body is a step to do it.

this is not a claim that trans ppl don't exist, more of an obvservation of the kinds of people thst use that title nowdays.

i could just be seeing shadows where there is nothing, but ever since i started working this still drills my brain.

I did it because of both

lul i was very suicidal and HAD to transition
at the same time i wanted to start over too because i was a loser

I never had any sense of identity at all before transitioning.
I was just alive, I was like the protagonist in a first person shooter game, a floating viewpoint who's body didn't matter and all I had to do was navigate my way through the arbitrary world placed in front of me and survive as long as I could.

I never understood any of the elements of like, having a personality, having goals, having an ideal body you wanted to try and work towards, I merely existed and did my best to not accidentally die because it would make my parents and friends sad for some reason to lose this unremarkable nothing person from their lives, so I stuck around for them.

As a woman I actually like, get it, all the elements that were missing from my flat life suddenly make sense, I understand why I'd want to take care of my appearance, I have inspiration for how to decorate my living space and what outfits I want to wear, I no longer live in a flat empty apartment wearing cargo shorts and a graphic tee every single day.

I'm finally alive after just now having the controller plugged in and watching the demo reel for all these years.

do it was a body reason or a social reason?
i get feeling without direction in life, but if you transition there has to be a thought of "this is not the sex i was meant to be", right?

its not just liberating yourself from the expectations of being a guy is what i mean

definitions of what a trans person have changed quiet a lot in the last 7 years so im lost on this one

if you repress your dysphoria you dissociate, if you dissociate often enough you can’t really form an identity. when you treat your dysphoria you should start dissociating less, but you’re now stunted in personal development so you have to figure that out as well.

this is only possible for midshits, otherwise there is no start over and no transition
>getting a new name and body
lol
