family stuff (~) 

the weirdest thing was that last weekend made me realize i kind of want my parents to know me. to have some kind of relationship. i am pretty sure they'd accept me? but i'm bad at saying it out loud. i want to control everything, like how they understand trans and nonbinary, to manage those expectations. and then to tell them i'm trying HRT? ahahah

hgrmff. happy coming out day to everyone, i'm especially not a fan of holidays but y'all can have it =3

self-care, exhaustion (~) 

ooooomf. the past month took more out of me physically/socially/psychologically than i expected, and i haven't been recovering right, i've been stressing about everything.

hey tanuki: realize that the stress you feel is a product of your social/physical exhaustion, stop trying to do things, chill. no plans. no 12-hour workdays if you can help it.

hey everyone else: daaaaang i finally beat Dead Cells (first ending???) woo

formal clothes (+) nosy family (-) 

good stuff: realizing I'm low-social and it wasn't just clothing-fueled dysphoria making me not want to deal with people in a formal setting.

bad stuff: people who I figured would Not Like my style asking me probing questions. getting assumed to be gay (not the fun expansive meaning of gay).

???? stuff: my dad says "tonight's a big night for you, isn't it?" without me having explained anything. I think he might be seeing me and it is so weird

re: parents, trans coming out (~/βˆ…) 

for the first time since I moved out, I actually want to have a relationship with them. they're genuinely interesting, if maladapted, and something about that informs who I am. and I want to know what I missed.

parents, trans coming out (~/βˆ…) 

I'm trying to just get to a point with my parents where I can say anything and like

my dad keeps talking over everyone and it's real hard to get a thought in without him talking about himself. hahahaha

I give myself permission to not do this today. to not do it tomorrow. I give myself permission to wait until i feel like I'm comfortable and they will listen. I give myself permission to not do it at all.

but

I turned on "autoplay gifs" and masto is 300% more magical now =O

hrt, internal struggle (+) followup 

appointment was great, with my therapist basically facilitating a space where we could really share some feelings. and we did til we felt stopping. we were exhausted after,

all these little plastic fences i put around my life get melted down again and again. who's rebuilding them? my brain

i like to talk about my brain like it's an independent thing because it's not a bastion of reason and intelligence, it's a reactionary organ of misguided overprotection
