I keep saying my deadname in my head, this kinda started a bit after a family gathering where I heard my deadname a ton. This was in may and sometimes I will just say my deadname in my head and it feels wrong, it also kinda makes my real name feel a little wrong, even though I know it’s not and I like the name skylar
Yeah, it took me a long while to get out of that habit. Weirdly, it was more common when I was frustrated with myself, as if I was using it as some sort of punishment.
Nice name by the way, Skylar. I chose the same many years ago. ☺️
