Feeling very ugly and freak like.  I feel like that no one wants me around or talk to me.  I like like that everyone just hates me.

 

Maybe I should just sell everything and sell my house and just go somewhere else off the grid where no one will ever find me.

Seems like a bad plan. How would you get your HRT?

 

You're on the other side of the country from me, but I don't think you're a freak. I've got friends and I suspect you do too. At the end of the day, people love us for us.

 

Hugs!

@Aurora this it only temporary so hang in there. Remember going to club and being hit on as a CIS girl. Remember waking up with the right body (I still envy you so much on that one). Remember it takes time for others to catch up with you. Just kick back and relax and realize how many of your goals you have achieved. You my dear are a woman and a beautiful one inside and out.

Hugs

So I am finding out and I am keeping documentation on when I am looking for a job and even at my current job that I have been discrimaniated against because of my stutter.  Myself being Trans is fine.  Everyone has been way ok with me being Trans.  But places are uncomfortable with me cause of my stutter and they are hinting that they dont want me just cause of my stutter and dealing that I cannot do the job cause of my stutter.  I am really mad at that.  Then to find out that the reason why I am on 3rd shift at my work is cause of my stutter and no one wants to deal with me, so they put me on 3rd shift just to put me in the deepest darkest corner to keep me out of the way cause of my stutter and no one wants to work with me or deal with me cause of my stutter.

Wow… is this legal?

Totally relate. I usually just try not to think about it though and stuff those feeling deep deep down where they can't hurt anyone lmao, then tell myself everything will be great in the future and that one day after I've finished transitioning I can just move away where no one knows me and start life anew as my authentic self lol.

I don't have time to care what other people may think of me at this point in my life; screw 'em lol; I gots bigger fish to fry. XD

Employers must not discriminate because someone is trans or for a disability. There are laws about that--they can be sued. Ask for help. You do not deserve this at all. It's not your fault. We send you love.

For myself, I work in IT and I work at a data center,  When the pandemic hit in 2020, I was one of the essential workers that still had to go in cause of everyone moved from being in the office to virtual to online and it put a strain on the internet and all the servers and switches.  So I was a important person.

 

For myself, the only way that I can get off 3rd shift is to look for another job since my co-worker does not want to swap swifts with me.

 

I really hate how business have found ways around with their wording to not make it sound like it is discramation.

 

So when I had a phone interview, the person worded it as we are concerned that you are not able to verbally communicate with the other team members.  At first I did not think about my stuttering and just thought that oh are you concerned that I dont talk to people or something.  The person repeated themselves again and so it hit me and I said oh are you talking about my stuttering and then that is when the person said yes.

 

So pretty much what sucks is the fact on how business get around the discrimantion stuff by watching how they word things.

So sorry you've had to go though this, Aurora. May the perfect job for you come your way. You certainly don't stutter when you write.

Guess that dysphoria is back with it's ugly face.  I am really hating myself and feeling really down and feel like that no one likes and no ones wants me around.  I am just some charity case that people take pitty on and yet no one actually knows me or wants me around.

 

I have no friends and no support and no one to really talk to or comfort me.

 

Thinking on just ending it all.  No one will care if I am gone.  No one will miss me.  

 

Been alone all my life.  Never married.  Never had sex.  Never felt the joy of love.

 

Guess no one really loves me and I should just end everything

I know how the dysphoria monster works. Especially when it teams up with it's friend depression and corners you in a dark alleyway.

 

@Aurora, you are a lovely person. The world would be a darker place without your light.

 

I completely get where you're coming from though. I've been through patches where I was only living because I wasn't sure if anybody would look after my cat if I was gone.

 

Here at least we enjoy your company and would very much miss you if you were gone. I'm certain that someone as lovely as you are has people close at hand who feel the same.

 

Hugs!

I wish there was something I could do for you.

If you weren't so far away you could come over for some coffee or something and a hug.

@Aurora Oh Aurora. My heart goes out to you. I know that depth of loneliness. You certainly deserve better, you certainly deserve happiness. I'm sure you'll find it if you persevere. I pray for that. ?

hugs,

Hi Aurora.

I feel alot of what you experience.

It'd be nice to be invited into "inner circle" things.

Or have a name to put down as emergency contact on medical forms.

Working on accepting myself.  In my case this is a barrier between me and others.

Maybe there is some action yiu can take to fight this and feel better now.

Big hugs.

@Aurora I wish there was something I could do, at the very least give you plenty of hugs.  There may not be much i can say or do to help you feel better, but I do know that feeling and I hope you find a way through the fog and back into some sunshine.

 

Love and hugs

Kelly

Dysphoria is such a devil. 
 

you have support with us, albeit it is online, we still care for your well being. For months after surgery you’ll feel more intense depression sometimes just because you’re having to adjust so much to your new life. I remember for about the first 6 months I would often just cry because I felt I was so alone because it was all about dilation and keeping my physical self in check. It gets better..just keep it in mind. Don’t let the short term depression win. Seek out your counselor and work thru it!

So as the holiday season is getting closer and closer to us, alot on my mind now is how I am going to be all alone for Christmas.  No family close by, no friends.  Probably only going to get one present mailed to from my mom that is in another state.  But I am not going to have anyone around.  This is going to be the saddest Christmas season ever for me.

I wish I could send you a present! All I can do is send you a virtual hug!

 

if you could have any present in the world what would it be?

      During my last visit with my psychologist (who has agreed to provide required letters of recommendation along with a colleague to provide the second) we discussed the shift towards my wife's acceptance. It was a long discussion but one point I mentioned was how much the two of us sitting down and watching this documentary helped:  The Kings | A transgender love story (2017)
    • Betty K
      Oops, I did not mean to post that comment yet! I was going to also say, having read a mountain of commentary on the Review, I think Julia Serano’s response (linked by Vicky above) is the most accurate and thorough. You can also read a non-paywalled version at Substack: https://juliaserano.substack.com/p/the-cass-review-wpath-files-and-the   To me the three key areas in which the review is deficient are:   1. As has already been said here, its views on social transition;   2. Its attempts to give credence to the “ROGD” theory (without ever actually mentioning ROGD because presumably a canny editor knows that would be too transparently transphobic);   3. To me, most crucially, its claims about trans youth and suicide, which are dealt with summarily in about five pages and do not stand up to any deeper scrutiny.    I will be writing about each of these issues in isolation over the next few weeks and appearing on a radio show and podcast to discuss them late in the month. I will post links to these on TP later if anyone is interested.   All that said, I actually think it’s dangerous for us to respond with outright vitriol and condemnation to the review since, like any effective piece of disinformation, it does actually contain some factually based and even helpful recommendations. The Tavistock Gender Identity Service really was underfunded and understaffed and certain staff were not adequately trained. Trans kids really were funnelled away from mental-health support once they started gender-affirming care too. So yes, more investment in youth psychology services would help, as would a less centralised model of care, more training in treatment of trans kids, and more research.   One last thing for now: beware the claim that Cass ignored 98% of studies. That’s not strictly true. She seems to have taken other studies into account but leaned heavily on the 2% that met her standards. Nor does she ever claim that only randomised controlled trials are good enough evidence to justify the use of blockers for kids; just as with ROGD, she strongly suggests this, but is too canny to say it, because she knows such trials would be impossible. For now, I think the best response to this comes from the Trans Safety Network: “[…] we believe there to be systemic biases in the ways that the review prioritises speculative and hearsay evidence to advance its own recommendations while using highly stringent evidence standards to exclude empirical and observational data on actual patients. “ (https://transsafety.network/posts/tsn-statement-on-cass-final-report/)   To me, the scariest aspect of all this is that, if it follows Cass’s recommendations, the NHS will very likely follow Finland’s recent model of trans care, which seems to amount to a prolonged form of conversion therapy. I can’t find the link right now, which is probably lucky for anyone reading this, but I bawled my guts out reading the testimonies of kids who had been mistreated by that system. Truly horrific. To me, at least from my Australian perspective, the Cass Review is the most frightening development in trans rights in recent years. To me, the safe care of trans kids is THE number one issue in politics atm.   Ruth Pierce has a good summary of responses from trans folk and their allies sk far: https://ruthpearce.net/2024/04/16/whats-wrong-with-the-cass-review-a-round-up-of-commentary-and-evidence/

      Welcome to the wide, wild world of transgender, M.A.  It can definitively be overwhelming, but everyone here is amazing, so no doubt you'll get bunches of wonderful support. I think you'll be happy you found us.   
    • Sally Stone
      @Ladypcnj  This is so true.  I think all of us here have had a post or two that didn't get a response.  Sometimes, it's as simple as adding to your original to post for a clearer explanation, or re-reading what you wrote originally, and rephrasing it.  But don't despair, we aren't ignoring you.   Hugs,   Sally

      What season are you?  If you don't know, look around on the internet. Or ask a girl friend..  Maybe someone here is even a color consultant?   And there are guides on figure-flattering clothes for all shapes that you should look into.    Abby

      Just know that your kids will probably turn out OK, in spite of the chaos.  One of my partners was widowed in her very early 30s, left with 3 kids.  They're teens now, and one graduated a year ago and is working, but still living at home.  A few bumps in the road, but the three are turning into responsible young adults.  It is amazing how resilient kids can be.  They should be able to handle your changes as well.

      I've been transitioning now for eight months but have been wearing women's clothing for 2+ years. I am over weight and approaching my 72nd birthday. I have purchase my solid color clothing online and recently graduated to 'V' neck tops. I have been hesitant to get anything more girly due to family issues, though with my hair style I am able to totally pass when dressed in a skirt and blouse.   About two  months ago I finally went and got my nails done (which I truly which I had done long ago) though not red nor pink (again family issues). To date I don't think I am having problems with being trans unlike others seem to have. The biggest problem I am having is with my clothing. Any suggestions my girl friends might have would be greatly appreciated.   Cindy

      Umm.... if a post is ignored, live with it?   My stuff gets ignored sometimes, and its OK.  My life is different, and may seem kind of wacky to others.  Some folks just can't relate, or if I'm needing advice they just don't have it.  Diversity is like that sometimes.  If your post gets missed, don't take it personally.  Also, stuff that is new on weekends seems to get ignored more, since most folks are busy with family or other stuff during that time.  Overall, I think people here are pretty helpful.

      I'd really love a professional stove.  There's actually one I want at Lowes, but its like $6k.  I've got plenty of money, the issue is that I'm not the queen (king?) of my den.  Or even of the kitchen.  My partner (husband's wife #1) owns that territory, and she's very attached to what she's got.  One of our stoves has 6 burners and a large oven, the other has 4 burners and a regular household sized oven.  And of course, there's always the wood-burning equipment.    Today was interesting.  We had the first campaign fundraiser for our sheriff and my sister.  My sister is running to be constable of our township.  Pretty sure she'll win, as her opponent is an old dude who is mostly running on "Don't elect a woman for a man's job"    What's weird is our sheriff is running as a Democrat, but he's conservative.  And his Republican opponent sounds like a leftist.  Welcome to Upside-down-ville   And of course all the kids got the chance to sit in a sheriff's car, and play with the lights.   We had a barbecue lunch and a dessert auction.  I baked three apple pies for it, and I was shocked that they sold for $20 each, since my cooking isn't that great.  My partner made her famous "Chocotorta."  It's like a chocolate layer cake with cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and it tastes amazing.  Usually we have it for Christmas and other really special occasions.  Two guys got into a bid war, and it sold for $175!!!    Yep, this is politics in the South.  Barbecue, pies, and police cars.  A great way to spend a Saturday

      Yes. That report is part of a conspiracy to torture and murder trans people. It is a lie. It is evil.

      TBH, I have no idea where to start with makeup.  
    • Ivy
      It seems plain to me, that this thing is simply a cherry-picked excuse to persecute trans people - especially trans youth in the UK.  And it will also be used here in the states to legislate against trans care here as well.   The right wing has already made up their mind about us, and they are just looking for "evidence" to legislate against us.     Seems like if they were really for "freedom" as they claim, they would leave us alone to live in our personal "delusions".   I mean, I have no problem with cis people.  Some of my best friends are cis people.
