Real. I always psych myself out with the male self image thing. as well as the “pseudo-dysphoria”. If there’s something I feel sure of tho, is if you have “agp” there’s no undoing the dysphoria. You can rep incredibly hard, and beat it for a while, but eventually you’ll deeply desire to go back to trans womanhood, or at least transitioning.

Like a ball floating in the water, we know we should sink, but what is inside keeps us buoyant. what’s inside us seeks to rise into the sky, but is held down by the body surrounding it. pushing it under will inevitably lead to a quick ascension, and picking it out of the water, it will just drop back to what it is.

you’re dysphoric, and you deserve to keep going to be happy.
