whining, dysphoria
I haven't complained about it in a while, but voice dysphoria continues to be terrible. Want to come out to a friend or two, but the thought of using my voice, egh. Obviously the actual coming out can be over text, but after that I can't explain it. I hate pretending to be a boy, but saying I'm a girl and sounding like this...Voice is just disgusting and horrible. All wrong. I don't have any idea how I'd want to sound either, if I could pick.
I know it won't get better without voice training, I know I need to, I know I should, all that. I'm not trying right now, I just can't. I know nothing will get better until I do. not worth continuing this and typing out all my self hatred. spoiler I've said this before, but I'm thinking about it again and not like I can tell anyone irl I remember not liking my voice changing during puberty. Thought that was normal and I'd like it eventually. Clearly I was wrong, and tbh I wonder if I'll ever like my voice again. Current trajectory isn't looking good. How sad. Just ruined by T. ::: fwiw yesterday was quite good for me, very calm. A nice break from some of my usual struggles.
Y'know lotsa girls sound like you though... maybe even me smh... Like you don't actually have to voice train, you can just go anyway. And "ruined" like, you can "fix" it...
Thank you, just in a really bad state right now.
Voice can be rough, but it is something that can be changed. It may take a lot of getting used to, but you will eventually find a voice that you like. I struggled with voice a lot when I was first transitioning as well, it felt like it invalidated my feelings and being a girl. A few months in, and although my voice is nowhere near where I want it to be, and I've barely done any voice training, I feel much better being out to friends and not having to pretend to be someone else. It can be scary, but if they're accepting of you, having people to be yourself around will make you much happier
Thank you, I hope so
I remember feeling that way during puberty too, and it’s hard but it does get better
