I’m not going to be in a position to be able to really transition for a very long time, although I am on HRT. I don’t expect to ever be able to look like a woman but I would like to at least hurt less. As such, does anyone have any tips on how to distract myself or accept my situation a little better? I mostly just dissociate but I still have times where I am reminded of the fact I am literally God’s strongest Grendelmoder and I look like the only thing I am good for is eating noisy tribesmen.

    I do have a couple of friends and I do really enjoy their company. I don’t really have any hobbies atm because I so rarely have the energy to dedicate time to them. I will try harder to pick up some hobbies I suppose.

    As far as games go, I have had a lot of success in the past from playing overly complicated games so that my mind is fully concentrated on something other than myself, although I have been finding that to be less effective of late.

    Thanks for your help though I really do appreciate you taking the time to try and give me some advice :)

      What kind of games do you play?

        I like to play all sorts of things really. It’s not exactly breaking any stereotypes but I quite like playing strategy games and city builders. Having to manage lots of different tasks helps take my mind off of things. I am looking to branch out into other games now though because I have gotten too familiar with how these games work that they no longer take up as much of my attention as they used to.

        I saw a video online of someone playing Vintage Story and I might give that a try as it seems pretty in-depth.

        What kind of games do you play?

          Ah cool :) I play pretty much everything. But I also really like city builders and grand strategy games! I like rimworld, hoi4, crusader kings and so on. Vintage Story I have played too and its very fun! Let me know if you ever need someone to play something, maybe we can play something together :) you can add me on discord if you want, its on my profile ^^
