I don't care what you're in the middle of doing. When your witchy girlfriend tells you to get into the ritual circle, you comply. 🤨

This. So much this. The struggle is real, and getting past it is far harder than it seems to most people. Let's not talk about how hard it then becomes for us to accept help once someone breaks through the emotional wall to make us even realize we're hurting.
You see, the thing about being trans is so many times other people will spot the signs you’re in pain before you do. This is often the result of you being brought up to put everyone else’s needs before yours. And it takes extra effort to de-program when you finally shed the expectations of others.

The year barrels towards a close and finds me vastly unprepared. Nothing new there, but we soldier on.
Today is still pretty chill, but it's back to editing for me. Food, meds, and coffee have all been consumed, and my work area reordered.

Giving myself the Christmas present that keeps on giving - I'm going back to therapy next year.
I thought I was doing okay, and I'd flown for about half a year without therapy. But these past few weeks have made it stunningly clear I need more help.
