Is it normal to be scared shitless of transitioning, despite feeling desperate to do it?
>>43343266i think so. im trying to overcome it myself. where do you think your fears stem from?
>>43343337It probably is because of multiple reasons, which are difficult for me to separate from each other. Shame, fear of change, fear of making a mistake, imposter syndrome, the fact that we prefer a familiar evil over an unfamiliar good, fear of social consequences, etc
>>43343266Yes. Extremely. People that are not afraid aren't taking it seriously enough. The fact you are deathly afraid and stil want to transition is a strong sign of being trutrans
>>43343423What if sometimes I'm deathly afraid of being a woman, and or deathly afraid that I'll miss being a man?
>>43343266yeah its very scary, for good reason because im faketrans and forcing myself to do it.
>>43343490Why are you forcing yourself?
>>43343266taking hormones isn’t really big deal tbhoneverything else is absolutely insane tho and i will never have the courage to do it
>>43343770because i really hated how i was starting to look as a guy, losing my hair and never being able to shave away my beard shadow and hairy body.
>>43343801Maybe you're forcing yourself to be a man?
>>43344146maybe, i honestly dont feel like any gender. more just like i have the physical prison that im trying to do damage control on.
>>43343266Yes. Don't let it scare you into waiting.
>>43344403Yeah that's what dysphoria is like. The fact that it's normally talked about like it's a personality thing is BS.
>>43344415ok sure but i dont think i would ever want SRS and i cant really see myself as a woman in any way, im a male person that doesnt really like being male, but im not enjoying being trans either. so idk.
>>43343266Don't buy it anon, it's actually poison.
>>43344837That's also normal. The whole "I've actually been a woman all along" thing is a psyop. It's not indicative of what dysphoria is actually like, because many of us grow up with dysphoria but instead internalize our identities as "male but something is wrong with me."
>>43344415>>43345110tbqh, that only makes it worse, cause then I really know that there's no escape from this hell
>>43345110Yeah i definitely feel the “im male and theres something wrong with me”2 years on hrt and i still feel that way. Im just a weird little third gender faggot with estrogenized body atp. Im lucky that my girlfriend stuck with me this whole time, she’s the only reason I have the strength to live life. But i think she grows tired of my mental illness, and so do i
