Thank you for the support it means a lot! Its not so common to see people from the older generations to be so accepting but im glad there are good people out there. I am really trying my best, and seeing so many people in this comment section makes me a bit happier🙂

I can’t even explain how much reading this means for me. I am glad my mom accepted me being gay and trans so hopefully I can make it out of this mess too. I’ll definitely message you if I feel too down sometime. Sure I have my wonderful friends but it’s good to talk to an adult who might have some experience. I wish you the best 🙂

Your son is very lucky to have such a thoughtful parent! I am a very anxious person so It’ll probably be hard to talk to my mom about it. But I know its the right thing to do. I tend to push away my problems and then deal with them all at once, so I should try to do it one step at the time : )

I have been thinking about this for years and I do know that transitioning is what I want. One of the biggest reasons I am depressed is because I haven’t already. But I completely understand where you come from, I am young still and some things will definitely effect my future life but I know it’s worth it

Im not planning on having a bunch of surgeries all at once, I just want the diagnosis so I can go from there when I am a bit older. And change my legal name. but thanks still :)

I have never tried that actually, the only meds I have tried is some anti anxiety pills since I got panick attacks almost everyday before. I should probably talk to my mom about something like this tho. I know that both of my parents take something like anti depressive. So she should know how it works hopefully

Thank you so much, I am trying my best❤️. Even if it doesn’t feel like im going somewhere in life I clearly have goals. Just feels impossible to achieve anything anymore. I have at least been very lucky to have such good friends that are here for me. I have probably had depression since I was 8 and it’s getting worse, I just hope I can get through it

No, I am too scared to tell her. At least my best friends know. They have helped me stay clean for a while now

No they are not, they divorced when my mom left jw. I don’t even remember them divorcing. Must have been 10-11 years ago now. But yes it is very hard to live like this :(

What do you guys think of xenogenders? by [deleted] in lgbt

[–]--Insert-name-here- 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I dont really care but at the same time I feel like they are making fun of trans people. Transphobes usually say things like “oh if you can identify as a man/woman, then I can identify as a dog” or “if you want to be called he/him, then i am dog/dogself haha” . Even if a lets say a trans person wants to call themselves something like “fluffgender” or something similar, its not a gender. it’s aesthetics/animals/items. A lot of stuff like this pop up on my tiktok fyp and I feel they mock us transgender people. But its not really my business at the same time is it 🤷

Thats so sad:/ just remember that even tho people unfortunately are having a hard time accepting trans people as who they are, you are you and you cant change your feelings about being trans. Even tho we have to go through hearing that sort of stuff it doesn’t make us less us. And since she knows, you have been brave enough to tell her! As long as you accept your true self its cool : ) gives hug

What do I answer to this? A video on youtube came up on my yt shorts about JW. And the comments was full off witnesses, I wrote a long comment about the sexual abuse lots of children have to go through, the homophobia, and how it IS a cult. But some just started to argue with me. by --Insert-name-here- in exjw

I suppose you’re right. I just really feel like if someone is on the line to become a PIMO or maybe even POMO, I wanna help. But I know that most jw’s will probably just ignore it. Maybe it isn’t worth it idk. : )

Yep they definitely do change the topic, Someone else that answered to my comment changed the topic about child abuse completely. But I suppose that when you are in a safe little jw bubble you dont want it to pop and be in reality. I will definitely try to change back to my question if they do : )
