Girl listen to this 54 year old telling you that no one ever starts transitioning too late. If it makes you happy, don't look back.
It took me decades to get over my self hatred. But it doesn't need to take you that long and honey you are doing amazing and you are stronger than you realize. It takes huge guts to come back and be here. Do not be ashamed. You are a badass.
That psychiatrist sounds like a fucking idiot. Fucking yikes. You are not a bad person but you need a better therapist. Keep working on it, mental health can take a long time to smooth out but you can do it. If I can do it, you can do it. 💜
Thank you. I honestly hope it doesn't take me as long. Life would be a lot more fun without these worries
Badass? Me? OwO
The psychiatrist is the worst. I'm not really sure I wanna go back there, despite her being my main and only SSRI source...
Thank you so much 🩷
winters pile
wise the wrinkle
speaking truth.
explanation
Tried to write it as a haiku, following the rule that in Japanese, you write haikus using morae, not syllables. I think they'd be analysed as:wi•n•te pa•il
wa•is the wri•n•ke•l
spi•ki•n tru•th
but if I wrote it wrong, here's a syllable-based version:
Up pile the winters
wise in wrinkles of life hues
truth cracks in fire.
I hope it came across right, I wanted to say that you put it down very well :D and spoke a great truth. A truth nuke if you will.
