Title: "my skin feels like it has my birth name on it"
Post by: kittylover on January 14, 2015, 08:06:45 PM
I sometimes have a feeling like body dsyphoria but not about a specific part. the title is a random thought I had that I realize was really insightful in explaining that feeling. some backround info about my situation-Since I've been back on campus everything's been different -in a good way. The proffesors all use the right name and pronouns now. speaking of my birth name I always used to promised myself I wouldn't be "one of those trans people" who acts all secretive about their birth name (no offense to anyone) but now I don't seem to be so sure about that..... But I'm not sure how to make that feeling go away . has anyone felt anything like that? if so what helped you?
