How do you cope with realizing you’re trans and have been repressing for your entire life but you only know two people who support you. I hate it cuz I live in this stupid American economy and idk how I’ll ever transition and get away from family.

I transitioned after repressing, but after a few years realized that repressing was the better move for my career and detransitioned/repressed again. Sometimes life just sucks and that’s how it is

it really sucks, but repression either ends with you being miserable or with a boil over into wanting to transition. frankly, you need to realize that people who wouldn’t accept you don’t love you for YOU, they just love the idea of you they have in their heads. making new friends in the trans community can be very healing
