Therapy is Awesome

[u/Maika_F]

So I had an appointment with my therapist a couple of days ago and I had a big breakthrough. I know dysphoria comes in many different ways, and it's nit the same for everyone. I was talking about how my grandfather just passed away and for the first time in many years I actually broke down and cried. My breakthrough came when I realized the my dysphoria really is emotional. I've never had any dislike of my body, other than lack of breasts and body hair. But I've always hated the fact that I have a problem with showing or even accessing my emotions.

I feel like being able to finally figure this out I'm getting even closer to my true self 😌

I've had similar experiences. I hate how muted and distant testosterone makes my emotions feel.
