I've gotten very far into my physical transition since last summer, and recently I've made some more progress with getting my parents to understand this whole trans thing. But everything else in my life has just gotten worse, sadly.

Rant about personal struggles, transphobia and loneliness

I feel like I'm never going to get a job, I'm struggling to stay motivated for anything thanks to my ADHD, I've grown very distant with the few friends I have, and I have no idea how I'm gonna come out to my extended family. The isolation I feel from all of this is really starting to take a toll on me. There's also fact that my brother is a techbro chud that thinks trans people are all just mentally ill. Wish I could cut him out of my life, but that's difficult to do when he still lives with my parents, who I very much care about and want to stay in contact with. This shit sucks transshork-sad

Despite all of this I feel hopeful about my future. Gonna try to join a local queer org soon, see if I can't get to know more trans people that way. Also looking into getting therapy, as well as trying out a different ADHD medication since ritalin isn't doing anything for me.
