I started my transition so long ago that I don’t even feel connected with the trans community anymore…

I mean they don’t “poof,” but I don’t really utilize support groups or pride spaces anymore since I don’t really need the support aspect? I did when I was younger for sure. I’m kind of just “living” now. It’s really difficult to describe.

yeah no. that makes sense. it just sounds like u need to get out and meet some trans friends irl. we're not like a monolith. we don't all dwell in online spaces, or believe the same things and there r plenty of us further along in our transition. you'll always be a part of the trans community. it's not really something that u can leave if that makes sense.
