How can I be sure that I'm not actually genuinely psychotic instead of trans?
>>
>>43561056
Consulting with a qualified licensed professional?
>>
>>43561096
Definitely the best course of action, but I'm too broke for that right now unfortunately.
>>
>>43561136
I mean, if thats a sincere concern, it feels like that's something you must check before you make a life changing decision
>>
>>43561056
it's possible to be both
i don't think psychosis leading somebody to falsely believe they're trans is particularly common. what things make you think you might be trans?
>>
>>43561269
>what things make you think you might be trans?
Constant hyperfixation on my sexual characteristics, which developed into genuine and severe distress of them.
What makes me think that I may be psychotic is the fact that all of this lead to a mental switch, and I now can't unthink of myself as anything but a woman, despite obviously not being one, both in looks and character

>>43561056
Under classical psychoanalysis trannies are clinically psychotic and psychosis isnt a real diagnosis in modern psychiatry

no, that's a very normal thing to happen to trans people and doesn't indicate you're psychotic. it can be a weird and uncomfortable experience, especially when you don't pass yet, but it doesn't indicate a separate mental health problem apart from the dysphoria it's highlighting.

This happened to me at 21 and it feels like it came out of nowhere
>>
>>43561056
What's the difference
>>
>>43561056
you can't, but you have OCD tendencies
>t. knower
>>
>>43562380
I don't know what's worse atp. I feel like I have a legitimate reason to worry about this, even if it's an unlikely scenario

O *clap* C *clap* D *clap* tendencies.
Not full blown your just a tranny, relax, it's gonna be okay better times will come just do something you like rn and tomorrow will be a better day

>>43562565
I'm pretty much fucked either way. I also don't understand why it's all affecting me now and never before
>>
>>43564148
because it doesn't matter :)

Did you have a long adolescent experience of dysthymia, the persistent numbing sense that your own feelings and desires were somehow out of reach or hard to decipher? That feelings were muted or that your life was occasionally more like watching a really weird and boring movie than living in a vast well of intense and visceral sensation?
>>
>>43564564
nta but yes but I'm a meta-attracted UBERhon AGP lateshit cis man fetishist so THIS IS JUST HOW LIFE IS SUPPOSED TO FEEL and everyone who doesn't feel it is even more narcissistic than I am
>>
>>43565257
Then why does everyone make that face when you say things like this?

Hello anon
I have psychosis
Estrogen helped treat it a little
Now i am in more control than i once was
It feels bad to not have full control over your mind.
It pushes you round and makes you to do things.
But like a starving person coming for food the urge to transition was real
Regardless of med status, it felt like I was supposed to be a girl and my maleness was mistaken.
I'm crazy as fuck and talk to angels when nobody can hear me now, and I can hardly mask at all anymore. I think i only have a few years of lucidity left. I'm jappy I'm making the most of the time I have to live as the version of me I am.
>>
>>43561056
Take E and see if you feel better or worse
>>
>>43569682
I'm really sorry to hear that. It sounds very scarring and exhausting. Wish I could help, but I can only wish for you to have a nice life
>>
>>43569785
Thank you friend. I appreciate your good wishes. Please live a good life for yourself too. Sorry if that post came off as too whiny.
>>
>>43569914
Thank you too. I really hope you'll be able go live life to the fullest extent you manage to.
And don't worry, your post didn't come off as whiny at all
