TW: How do you all cope with Dysphoria drop em down below

Tylers_Pretty_Rad 9/2/2021 01:06 pm 2160

I was just hoping these could help me or anyone else looking for ways

For me (a completely closeted person)

-Do any gender-conforming things that help

-Honestly sleep

-Draw me as I hope others will one day see me

-Write myself letters

-Act out an introduction in the mirror where I use name/pronouns

PLAYING GUITARRRRRRRRRRRR

also wearing my gender euphoria outfit helps but i dont have any reason to wear it if i have the time to focus on dysphoria and try to cope with it (aka if im at school i wont be able to wear it, and if im not at school i have no reason to really dress myself)

if im at home, I’ll just wrap myself up in a blanket and a baggy shirt/hoodie so I can’t see my body then distract myself with comfort streamers/youtubers and I also like to imagine what I’ll look like after transitioning. i am a trans guy, but this could maybe work for trans fems too?????? idk lmaooo. that’s here now if you think this will work for you regardless of your gender /gen /pos

sometimes when I have rlly bad chest dysphoria I stuff my bra with like, triple padding and put a sports bra over it. then I take a bunch of selfies and immediatly take everything off because I have horrible sensory issues and can't wear that shit for more then 5 minutes, but I look cute in the pics xd

i talk to my gf and they are very <3

having a support group of friends is very cool

also i just. make jokes about it

before I cut my hair i'd keep it in ponytails so that it looked shorter when lookin straight on in the mirror? idk that helped a bit

also petting my cat cause she's so good i love her

i don't have any coping skills

i just get mad at the world and sob and hide in my crusty bedroom for as long as I possibly can, I fall asleep and then wake up and listen to music and cry and be jealous of all the trans boys at my school who actually pass as boys

this has been going on every. single. day. for as long as I can remember
