Title: (Possible trigger warning) Leaving the forums..
Post by: Avinia on May 17, 2015, 01:45:53 AM
Yeah... Wasn't sure if I should make a goodbye post or not, but I guess it is better to make one than just suddenly stop posting(or gradually I guess, have slowly stopped recently).

Anyways, had been thinking about it for the past few months, but finally have decided that I have gained whatever knowledge I came here for, and I thank everyone who helped me for however long I have been here.

Recently I have pretty much come to accept that either I have just been imagining the whole transgender thing, or am at most non binary. But for this point in my life, I would rather just try to go back to identifying as a feminine man. Most likely will still check the news section every few weeks or months, but pretty much have decided to completely stop using the forums for the next few years.

Honestly, one of the big reasons which is leading me to pretty much completely distance myself from the LGBT community, is that as much as it has helped me, it has left me pretty depressed recently, to the point that I seriously started to distance myself from all of my family and friends.

So yeah... For now it is time to just take this knowledge I have gained, and go concentrate on religion and school for now. Eventually I may be back and start transitioning, or I may come back as just a supporter, but... For now I do know that after experiencing this for myself, I will never be able to silently sit as my friends are saying bad things about the LGBT community(have heard them use some pretty offensive words)...

Thanks.
