    I still haven’t managed to get a job and it’s wearing on me more every day. I’m living with my parents currently and they refuse to use my name/pronouns, they refuse to even try. I haven’t been able to start hormones, my dysphoria is bad and I feel like no one takes it seriously. I’m spiralling into depression more each day despite my meds. I don’t know how to keep going. My partner supports me but he’s half a world away, and most of the time seems too busy with his own life to talk to me. There aren’t even any support groups around because we live in Woop Woop.










  • My mum’s abusive. I learnt early on that just because someone is a religious leader that doesn’t make them a good person. My dad was always the better of the two, I thought he was okay, but now he’s older I’ve heard him express opinions I can’t agree with, support for political ideals that are questionable at best. I’m not sure how I feel about it all.

    I went to a nerd convention (probably Supernova) and there was a stall there raising awareness for autism and I wanted a cape because they were giving out capes (I’ve since lost the cape, very sad), and the guy there was like “are you autistic?” And I’m like “I don’t think so” (thinking I guess they ask everyone or something). A year later, I’m helping out at this nerd shop and a couple comes in and the guy’s like, “do you remember me? I think we met at the con last year. I don’t want to offend you, but I think you’re undiagnosed.” Turns out he was right.
