So I found out a few months ago that wanting to ‘not exist’ or wishing you could ‘just sleep forever’ is also considered suicidal (specifically suicidal idealization). It shocked me cause I used to think that way when I was younger but had previously thought that being suicidal meant explicitly wanting to die.. but it actually involves wanting to not live too.

I think its an important thing to note cause it might allow someone to realize the severity of their condition earlier.

This was the funniest thing to me. Because I was talking to a counselor, and they were like “Are you suicidal?”

“No not really. But sometimes I don’t want to exist though”

“You do know that’s suicidal ideation?”

“…what?”

I wish I kind of knew before. Like honestly, we know so little about mental health.

who would win: my knowledge that gender isn’t real and that i can’t escape being female by using different pronouns and wanting other women to know that women are allowed to exist like i do OR my dysphoria loving it when people call me “he”

anyone have some dysphoria-lessening coping skills they’d like to share?

this post is a BIG MOOD. i posted up some worksheets that have some CBT skills for working through desires to be male that i find pretty helpful personally. i also find coloring or reading a book or doing something that can distract myself from dysphoric thoughts when they pop up helps a lot. or i’ll look at my body in the mirror and force myself to find three things that i like about it, and if it’s easy-ish to find three i’ll stretch it to five so that i have to work a little harder, if i find distraction isn’t helping. 

i’m also around to talk if you just want someone to listen to your feelings. good luck ❤

thank u for my life

hey for that anon who asked me about reidentification, this could help

“the only way lesbians can not like dick is if they’ve been traumatized by men, and even then they should still try to get themselves to like trans women’s dicks because its totally not the same” is the lefty version of “lesbians only exist because they’ve been hurt by men, and so they need to overcome that unnatural aversion because they will meet the right man eventually”

some of you l i t e r a l l y have -3 empathy for dysphoric females. it’s repulsive. if i have to see one more non-dysphoric radfem post a “hot take” about how females trying to survive is ruining feminism, i will scream. you cannot acknowledge that women are pressured to transition/disidentify and then hate us when we do. unless, of course, you just want an excuse to express your disgust at female gender noncononformity (this is the real answer). you all have a deep-seated repulsion with gender nonconformity, and it shows. you call transwomen “men in dresses” in ways that make it clear you think its gross to be a man in a dress. you ridicule trans females’ appearances, call transitioned/detransitioned females’ bodies “mutilated,” and generally dismiss our experiences. youre one step away from the libfem idea of masc female privilege with your “women/females who transition are just misogynists.” also, you cannot comprehend that dysphoria is a REAL THING that drastically affects people’s lives. it’s not something that’s always easy to get rid of, and, you’re gonna excommunicate me from the pussy church for telling you this, being trans is also a real thing. transition is a good solution for some people because they are actually transsexual. unilaterally saying that transition is evil isn’t true. we can talk about how women are pressured to transition without a) blaming them and b) acting like no females should ever transition.
