I'm tired. So tired [View all]

This holiday season I can't even be remotely happy. I'm trying for my mom's sake, but trying to pretend its gonna be okay isn't really doing me any good. I'm becoming more tired and exhausted from it. Even more depressed than I am. Add gender dysphoria on top of if and wanting to start transitioning, but having weight issues holding you back.

Add all the political drama on top of anti masking morons. I'm just so tired. I can't even pull myself out of bed on a day off anymore. Attitudes in the household have gotten worse from collective negative energy.

I'm always talking to my therapist. But it's not enough anymore for me. I'm on the cusp of considering medication again and last time it drove me to my second suicide attempt. But I just want to feel normal again. I want to transition to a woman and be who I am deep down. But I feel so much is holding me back.
