Just having one of those days. Feeling really masculine and about to go to my second trans support group tomorrow. Work and life in general are stressing me out. It all feels overwhelming and pointless.

Yeah, it does. I'm in the same boat. I'll still wake up tomorrow and keep dealing.

I hear you, daily life is very difficult, triggering and lonely for me, at times I feel overwhelmed and that this world is pointless, I have no support group that I can go to, what little family I have is flaky, unreliable and dysfunctional at best
Somehow I keep going, that's all I can do for now... Just keep going

It happens to all of us. You have made it this far, so hold on and after the support group meeting you will hopefully feel brighter. Hugs.

This is all new to me. I'm just starting to come out of my shell. Life is stressful, no matter what situation we are in. Just keep pushing forward, and keep smiling. It will get better some day. We just have to be able to keep trucking along.

fwiw, my life prior to transitioning was hellish.
Since being on hormones, moving out of the former wife's place (she's not quite my "ex" yet...), and claiming my "Beth-self" as ME, and subsequently claiming my body as my own...life has gotten better.
One step at a time, sometimes a step back, but always forward motion.
On to a better and brighter tomorrow! :)
It really DOES get better, even if you're alone with no support...you just have to claim it!

Hugs people.
I know it is tough and some times it looks like there is no hope, and then on top of it all something else happens and it seems too much.
I was reminded today of my worst day when the consultant came out of Intensive Care and told me that my wife would either die or be quadriplegic.

It helped me and still does.
Hugs and my love to my sisters and brothers in suffering the dark days.
There is light.
Eventually.

You are deffinitely not alone in how you feel as you can see quite a few of us feel the same.
We all have good and not so good days as Cindy says, I know that for sure.
Sometimes I would love a fellow girlfriend to help me and have fun with but...
Having no one to care about and can care about me is very hard but that's the way it currently is for me.
I try to make progress, one day at a time.

You are certainly not alone while your here.
I dont know you at all but if I could I would hug you until you were ready to be let go.
Myself included, we all struggle, but its nothing compared to the happiness we can achieve for ourselves if we keep at
it and push through.
Be strong, you can do it. ;D

I need to join this club also :)
It seems like most of us are in the exact same situation or have been in the past or else we probably would never have joined this site.
One of the most important things I've learnt in Life, is that time heals, so just take it day by day and things will slowly work themselves out.
