like… even most irl leftists don’t seem to support us, especially outside of america. my dad’s a borderline fascist, my mom’s an alcoholic, my friends will most likely stop talking to me out of shame, dating is fucking impossible when trans.
why live
Spite. Anger. Revenge. Justice.
If I go down I’m not going down alone.
i don’t care about any of that, i just want to be happy
i just wanna girl for god’s sake
i do, but i don’t know if it’s worth losing literally everyone in my life and setting myself up for a life of pain and solitude
I came out as a woman to my 2nd wife when I was 48. I came out to my daughter (22) at 50. They both shrugged and said, “I know.”
I felt your fear.
You are loved. I don’t know you, but I love you. You are beautiful.
honestly happiness comes from self-actualization. that is the most impressive quality. become a radical trans revolutionary hero. dating will not be impossible when you grow up again tomorrow and Become (even more) Cool. People are open minded and you can fucking stun them just by becoming the real you.
why die? you can help people, you can be a fucking messiah figure like Lenin if you want it bad enough
being surrounded by libs and fash is its own psychological hell, of course you feel miserable, you can grow past them and that life though, but they’re probably fucking stuck there and over time you’ll even feel sorry for them tbh
btw you can terrorize fascists and be completely justified in doing so
yes in fairness sometimes it can go wrong but it remains good advice for comrades, the point is more to become who you want to be: by denying Becoming through denying Being Nietzsche is nihilist SHIT (also that’s probably not what he meant but I get the criticism)
Nietzsche was one of the most anti-nihilists there was, actually. There’s a great academic/scholarly book called The Affirmation of Life: Nietzsche on Overcoming Nihilism that goes into great detail about this.
i just cant handle the dysphoria anymore, fucking hurts seeing my body get worse and worse
The first step is finding LGBT support groups.
There’s plenty of closeted Trans people out there, either for social or employment reasons, and no matter if you choose to go fully out, only out in supportive groups, or remain closeted to protect yourself you’ll need accepting people to support you.
And of course you always have us Libs here at Chapo to vent to.
