I like HRT but when I think about the positives and downsides there are a lot more downsides socially than positives.

Idk I wasn’t happy but I at least had a stable situation. Now? God knows what will happen. Possibly the worst.

For what it’s worth I’m not even that dysphoric. And odds are that dysphoria might not even be real. Or maybe it is real but I’m just mentally strong enough to ignore it and not give much thought.

The small amount of self love I will have for myself compared to all the hate and malice that will surround me is honestly just not worth it.

    This is gonna sound annoying, but… how do you just stop doing that. Like what does that actually look like in practice? I have the same problem where I’m over-analyzing everything and doubting constantly, but it’s completely impulsive and I feel I have no control over it. One day I think I’ve made a conclusion and accept I’m a tranny, and the next I forget it all and go back to thinking I’m a sissy fetishist.

        Hmmm. I think I get what you’re saying. I guess what you’re getting at is that we can be very selective with the kinds of thoughts we pay attention to. Kind of like how you can focus on one negative comment despite getting 1000 positive ones. So for every 1000 affirmative trutrans thoughts that I never write down (and inevitably forget), I have 1 faketrans thought that I pay attention to and spiral on. This is actually a good point because I do journal right now, but I mostly only ever write stuff down that is extremely negative that makes me wanna kms. So maybe every time i get a thought that points in the direction of me being trutrans, I’ll write that down in my journal to kind of counterbalance the faketrans doubting thoughts.

        Is this what you mean?
