>>41278664thats cool but doesnt work if you have actual dysphoria lol
There are so many generic detransition/repression threats getting posted. OP is always an extremely young person who reports being happy after "just having sex" with someone of the opposite sex and being heterosexual. Often they involve going on antipsychotics or something like that, which real trans people take all the time and we know it doesn't fix anything long term.Tl;dr these are clumsy heavy handed psyop threads.
>>41278674Tbh I had a lot of physical dysphoria that got better after I went on praziquantel x albendazole and got my gi health fixed. Idk why that worked but maybe it was effing up my hormones or causing some sort of extra dissociation. >>41278687I've never been on anti-psychotics. I have also read a lot of threads on r/detrans and there are a lot of butch lesbians and gay mtftms on there. I'm also not saying that worked for me would work for everyone. Maybe I was jist an ROGD fujoshi with health issues.
>>41278664You were confused and thats okay, people with actual dysphoria can't just decide they're done
>>41278793It took me awhile to get to the point where I felt better about my body and I still have some GNC interests and behaviors, so it wasn't an instant on / off. Although getting rid of the parasitic infection was the biggest single "boost" (and I am not claiming that it's common for trans folks to have that issue, although I have noticed a much higher than average rate of autism and autoimmune issues).
>>41278687Yeah. Into the bin it goes. Sage in all fields.
>>41278664you just figured out you didnt have dysphoria you dumb slut

>>41280341No, it was a legit worm. It had segments, was white, and had a scolex. We had a veterinarian ID it.
>>41278664>>He notices my quirks, tells me that he thinks I was a guy in a past life.i read this and just started crying because no one would ever tell me that from how fembrained i am>"You have a woman's body, so get over yoir ego and date men who like what you have."also this is basically what i tell myself every day, it wouldve probably been different if i only liked women since that aligns more with the easy to understand stereotype but the fact that i like men just discredits everything altogether, makes it very obvious im just a cishet foid who wants to be special
>>41281274>i read this and just started crying because no one would ever tell me that from how fembrained i amPlease don't base your value off how fembrained vs malebrained other people think you are. >also this is basically what i tell myself every day, it wouldve probably been different if i only liked women since that aligns more with the easy to understand stereotype but the fact that i like men just discredits everything altogether, makes it very obvious im just a cishet foid who wants to be specialI had similar thoughts and, while they weren't fun, they helped me to make peace with myself. The butch lesbian to trans pipeline makes a sort of intuitive "sense" whereas the gay trans guy phenomenon just seems fetishy and self-indulgent. I started thinking about what masc personality / behavioral traits I have (several) and how it's okay to have them as a woman. Or not have them. Gender stereotypes don't define your value.Also - I have always admired masc virtues like discipline, male honor, male comradery, etc. It's okay to view those things as admirable and still be a cishet female.I don't know if this will help you or not, but one thing I did that helped my dysphoria was positive affirmations before falling asleep. Not tapes or anything silly like that. I'd just say out loud, to myself, that I would wake up the next day with less dysphoria and then I would mentally set the intention. I visualized myself as overpowering and being free of my dysphoria. It seemed to help some.
