im curious bc i feel like on the subreddit there were a lot more potential or actual youngshits. Id consider myself having been a potential youngshit as i found the board at 13 and considered diy but just didn’t do it bc im faketrans and assumed i was a trender and making it up. i did try and failed to get hrt through the official routes too though, i just didn’t really think i could trust myself with my own choices. i would have had a better life if id stayed on the board and kept thinking about diy tbh.
how do you mean? It felt the same for me. There wasn’t any stages of increasing troonness. I just flipped as if becoming brainwashed and immediately wanted to transition and felt intense doubt but still the motivation to transition. I guess I didn’t value what I had before at all. Was it the same for you?
I’m the same way. Wanted to be a man my whole life, then suddenly a switch flipped and I became suicidally dysphoric. Who knows? Maybe it was one of those cosmic rays that flipped a single switch in my brain, like that Mario 64 speedrun.
