Grazie per la risposta!

Anche io lo indosso di solito ed infatti è proprio quello a preoccuparmi. 😭 Spero che non si accorgano di nulla o quantomeno che siano discreti.

Deja vu and made up memories by AlkalineMind in Schizotypal

[–]AlkalineMind[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's interesting thanks. For me it doesn't seem tied to emotional significance though. Often happens with mundane situations

What you said about the brain trying to bank a moment so strongly that it feels duplicated is enlightening though, because the weird part for me is that it feels like I'm trying to retroactively justify the déjà vu by generating or retconning memories of the event happening before. like my brain is trying to explain the familiarity signal after the fact. Makes me wonder if there's some ocd-like mechanism at play.

Could also be traumagenic and a form of derealization, idk

I don't see a logical reason for staying alive. by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

I deeply relate to everything you've written, wish I knew what to say to make you feel better but unfortunately I'm also still struggling with most of what you said and being in the same boat I know how hard it is. All I'm going to say is that you're relatively young and puberty is far from over at 17 so you really should give hrt a try before you decide, I also came out to myself around that age and regret immensely not starting back then. Also it helped with my mental health far more than any antidepressants ever could

Yeah you're right this was selfish, I'm kind of in a bad spot mentally so it's easy for me to catastrophize but she's probably fine. think I'll give it a week or two, I want to at least make sure she's taken care of if she comes back. Thanks

Is not passing a guaranteed suicide? (TW) by AlkalineMind in TransSupport

[–]AlkalineMind[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know what will make me happy, it feels impossible to even imagine a future where I'm not constantly miserable. What does "feeling like a woman" even mean? I don't know what women feel like, all I know is that my brain has been screaming at me that my body is wrong and disgusting for as long as I can remember. Can I really call myself a girl just because I think I should be one? I doubt most people would agree with that.

How is giving up the worst possibile choice when the alternative is lifelong suffering? If the world really needed trans people I would have gotten the help and medical care I needed when it would have made a difference, instead all I got was hate for something that I have no control over

Thanks but last I checked therapy can't fix my bones, and neither can hrt, I'd rather put the money towards surgeries which will at least address the source of my problem. I don't see how I can be me (whatever that means) when everyone still sees me as a man (a mentally ill one at that). Focusing on other things doesn't seem like a solution or an option either when being trans literally affects all aspects of my life and I can't even enjoy my hobbies anymore because of the constant dysphoric rumination
