So what happened next? I don't really know. The story doesn't really have a hard resolution, it just sort of fades. Without a doubt, I am a stronger person for the bullying I received. Would I call it a blessing? Hell no. But you gain strength in adversity, and eventually, I stopped giving a damn …
It's hard to remember too many specific incidents, but I can recall a few. One of the first I can remember was in elementary school, when one of the "popular" kids pulled me aside while we were lining up for recess. "Hey, I have a question for you." This guy was actually usually pretty nice …
I've already alluded to it several times, so I might as well start talking about it. As I've mentioned, I was a victim of bullying, starting in elementary school, reaching a head in middle school, and slowly fading in high school. Why? I've been trying to figure that out ever since. But I will try …
Another reason for my self-loathing? Politics. "The transgender" issue has become big news in recent years, and everyone has very strong opinions about it. In my area, I think it is safe to say, those opinions are pretty overwhelmingly negative. This is a Bible-belt red state, after all. The strange thing is how sudden it …
I've been posting a lot of pictures of girls performing the various roles discussed in my posts recently. Pretty sure you don't have to be a psychologist to figure out why, if you've been reading any of this at all. Turns out, just like choosing genders in video games, I am still self-conscious about this, …
It's strange how therapeutic video games are for my dysphoria, and in what ways. One of the more bizarre ways I have consoled myself in recent years is by following the development and rise of VR (Virtual Reality). Of course, as a 90s baby, I always knew that VR was the future. Somewhere, a photo …
I think one stereotype about transgendered folk (note from future me in 2019: transgendered isn't a word. Don't use it. I leave it here as a concession to the fact that it's okay to admit your past ignorance, so long as you learn from it) , especially the ones that want to transition, is that …
Well, I tried. But I choose what I want to write on any given post based solely upon what random thing I want to write on at the time. And despite my better efforts, currently, that thing is depression. I alluded to a few things in my discussion on my hormones. Namely, that my lack of …
Because my last post(s) had some pretty dark overtones, I'm going to resist my impulse to immediately follow it up with something else depressing, and instead, I'm going to talk about video games. Anyone who knows me knows that I am a pretty heavy gamer, and that I pretty much always have been. In fact, one of …
This is going to be the last post in this string for a while, and is really more of an afterword of things I couldn’t or didn’t include in the others. There is one more potential hormonal influence on my development, though I can’t verify how much of an effect it had on me, if …
