I’m trans FTM, but the way I deal with my dysphoria is to remember that one day I can get gendered health care, and that feeling uncomfortable is okay and normal for a trans person. I also try to do something that might help, like some self care making sure I’ll be ready for gender affirming care when I’m able to get it

I agree, plus experimentation. I have been trying as many new things as I can to find little ways I can be more myself (agender, fluid expression). For example, I thought I hated binding because I was still so barrel cheated and uncomfortable, but then I tried a full length binder that distributed pressure more evenly and now I bind or use trans tape often. I also tried masculine contouring, different haircuts and styles, birth controls, and dying my peach fuzz dark. Some worked some didn't, but it was something in my control to care for my comfort. Loving myself became easier once I started experimenting whether the new method worked or didn't. You got this 💕 Go Forth, Be Gay
