  • I dissociated so hard my depression went into “full remission”. then I told my mom I am trans and she didn’t accept me. I scraped by with verbal abuse for 5 months then cracked and nearly killed myself.

    8 days at a psych ward, 3 different antidepressants and a month later I don’t even know if I’m doing better lol








  • i thought the egg prime directive was to not tell ppl like femboys that they are trans, not people who show signs

    lemme double check

    edit 1: didn’t find the answer yet but APPARENTLY it’s another damn Star Trek reference. Not important but funny.

    edit2:

    The egg prime directive is not about answering questions or helping when asked for help, but for telling you, when you are not asking for it. Because the chances are very high, that you do not believe the person, and are building even more egg shell then before. If the person comes to you and ask you: Might I be trans, you can freely answer maybe, but I help you figure out. But approching you and telling you without you asking for input, that chances are very very high, that you are saying: no, never - mayne even feel mocked - and start building the next layer of your shell and even break the relationship, so you are not there to help, if you are needed.

    I have a cousin, she is trans too, and her reaction to my comeing out was: I could have told you ten years ago. I was angry, did not understand why she did not told me, but she was right, I would not believe her.

    Seems the line between helping someone self discover and outright TELLING someone they are trans are different things.
    I think it’s just a general “don’t outright tell someone, but help them if they need it” kinda thing?

    still confused. Can someone who knows more help?













  • just for shits and giggles I went through the last 7 days of your comments and took notes:

    • UK citizen (uses currency and talks about local chocolate brands)
    • SteamDeck owner
    • soccer/football fan
    • gamer
    • DRM hater
    • frequent videogame pirate (knows the name of a less popular repacker)
    • work at job about shoes
    • doesn’t have a foot fetish
    • boycotting the US
    • Porn watcher (probs older bc you referenced a specific one and people don’t do that nowadays)

    From this I would have to call every shoe stores in the UK to inform them that there is a miniscule chance their employee watches porn in their free time.

    I wasted like 20m on this lol

    And to be fair I’m not any better, I doxxed my full location on lemmy once accidentally 😂
