This Is So Great. Fuck Toxic Masculinity. We Need Something Like This Stateside (x) | follow @this-is-life-actually

Do you have any tips for dealing with dysphoria for trans girls who are out but haven't started HRT? Sometimes the shape of my face or being misgendered leaves me dysphoric for days and I don't really know how to deal with it

[I only ask cause I’ve already gotten past or tried most of the things on that list you already posted but it’s really hard to stop feeling like I’m ugly and fake and look like a guy and that I might just be lying to myself] (2/2)

I think the best thing you can try to do is reshape your perception of what a woman looks like. Now I know that’s easier said than done and that might not help dysphoria. But I think it’s important to know that even though you don’t have all the stereotypically feminine features defined by society that this does not make you any less of a woman. You are who you are no matter what you look like, and all of the features that give you dysphoria will never change the fact that you are a woman.

The media portrays women with a very specific set of characteristics, but women have so many more unique and diverse body shapes and features that are still incredibly beautiful. This includes trans women! Even if you don’t blend in as a woman yet, that does not make you any less beautiful! Being yourself and being the best person that you can be is what is the most beautiful!

Now that being said here are some more things that might help dysphoria:

- BE NICE TO YOURSELF! This is so important. Say nice things to yourself whenever you can! Be positive because this will actually unconsciously influence your thinking and your own perception of yourself. focus on the features that you like about yourself.

- try to only be around people who support you if you can and stay away from negative/unaccepting people. Let go of certain people in your life if that’s an option because the pain and negativity isn’t worth it. Sometimes letting go of the people you love is what is best for you in the long run.

- be around other trans women if you can. Being around people who are like you and who understand you really helps you not feel so alone and so different. You’ll see that trans women can be so beautiful even if they have stereotypically masculine features.

- ask supportive people in your life to do things with you that affirm your gender. Like having girl’s nights and stuff like that is super fun!

- try really hard to do things that you like to do and be active. Taking up a new hobby, trying new things, and doing stuff that you love to do can help you just not think about dysphoria for a little while.
