Does anybody else feel powerless against transition itself?
To elaborate, I'm transitioning and I still can't find any sound reason why I'm doing it, and yet I can't not transition. No matter what I do and how I try to navigate my life, I just end up doing anything in my power in order to transition. It feels like I'm only doing it because I have no other choice, like it's completely outside of my control.

trans people transition because others want them to and find them less of a threat when they do so

False. Trans people transition because they want to.

maybe you're being possessed by a demon?

I kinda understand what you mean. It's like a survival instinct, yet you can easily fall and get consumed by the brainworms. Personally my life centered around transitioning so much that when I was pretty much done, I realized that I have nothing going on in my life, I was ao focused on survival that it clouded a very important question - what now? Now i live like a husk of a human being, poor imitation of the gender I transitioned into. If you have nothing besides transitioning, you will realize at the end of it, that your life doesn't have any purpose. Food for thought ig.

Never watched Euphoria but i heard about this quote Hunter's character made. "I tried to conquer femininity, but it's femininity that conquered me", or smth like that. I think about it sometimes in relation to transitioning itself. Your post reminded me of this quote.

You're not alone. I had to do it. I had no other explanation other that I needed to. I experienced my life actively get worse (in the beginning) and I was really bitter. I felt upset that I had to suffer so much just to feel more "normal" in my skin. It's been over a decade since starting and things are pretty chill now. I'm just vibing. Unsettled by the political landscape, but I've already accepted more difficult life conditions arise because of people being shitty about something I have no control over about myself. I feel surprisingly fulfilled in my life. Relatively self actualized, and creating a life with meaning pursuing the work I want to do and not what I have to do. Got a partner who makes more than enough for rent that supports me doing long term volunteer labor projects that sends me traveling to cool places to do meaningful work (there's a small stipend but it's less than minimum wage, but then there's an "education award" for completing a term of service), and then go back to college in my 30s tailoring my degree to go on a direct path towards the career I'm actually shooting for now that I know what kind of work I enjoy doing and want to do at a higher level.

Hooooly run-on. I should probably go to bed.
