how do you cope in your day to day life?
>>42141791Is much easier be chad man then to deal with woman life especially trans woman life like harassers and stalkers etc
>>42141791Works going well. Have friends. Own my home. Have some fun hobbies. However I cross dress once a month or so and cant have a relationship because intimacy makes me dysphoric.
>>42142597i take it your friends don't know?
>>42142597do you look like an ugly man when you cross dress or are you cute?
>>42142800of course not. I mean I'm out as a gay man so i get a bit of leniency so Its not like I'm pretending to be straight.
>>42142815Subjective i guess. I mean i think i look fairly fem by normal guy standards.
>>42142824>gay man>reppingpick one bro.
>>42141791Work and copious amounts of video games. I spend nearly every waking hour distracting myself with video games, if I stop for a week or two I get really gay and start obsessing about taking HRT.
>>42141791well i started taking estrogen actually, i saw myself in the mirror again last night though and it made me want to stopi guess i'm still sort of coming to terms that i'll just be a weird little melted bag of flesh, but it is a lot less noisy without all the testosterone at least
>>42144265what u mean? changing gender is different to attraction.
>>42141791dissociation
>>42144316congrats, don't stop
>>42144289just start honestly, i distract myself as well but on hrt
>>42144289i just castrate myself and play video games and now i dont have to worry about becoming a woman
Well, last 2+ years I've been on AA and later on AA+E.When I was 25 I started on pills but only lasted a bit more than 6 months, my life was messy and my mental health terrible and I couldn't continue, didn't know how to cope so I started hurting myself, shaving with blunt razors, stopped using creams, moisturizers, sunscreen, started exercising my upper body heavily, cut my hair short(had been using long hair since I was 13), I slowly became a husk, many, many years passed and I slowly deteriorated, when I turned 30 had a serious talk with me, they were around when I started E first and noticed I was letting myself go, in their own twisted transphobic way they suggested me to go back to it, to regain consciousness, to take care of myself, for a couple of years I tried to salvage what was left and when I was 32 I decided to go back to hrt, took me a few months of conditioning myself to go back to my true self, let my hair grow, started using self care products, behaving how I used to behave, it was like waking up from a terrible nightmare.
>>42144563glad you pulled yourself out of that girl
30+ repgod here. I went to a few gender therapists and even a planned parenthood in in my 20s for an HRT consultation but I realized gender doesn't matter in my life that much. Something after 30 clicked for me and I became content with not being content. I think a natural part of growing older is letting go of your old ambitions and delusions.
>>42144690>30 clicked for me and I became content with not being content.you're still dysphoric tho? (i know its a dumb question because you're still here in the tranny board)
