What if the pain we’re feeling, the pain that’s wrenching our hearts, is nothing in their eyes? How long are we allowed to grieve something before our feelings stop being valid? Is there a point where they’ll just say, “Okay, enough now. It wasn’t even that big of a deal”? Don’t ever ask someone why they did all those things, because the answer you’re looking for might never come. They won’t have the answer you need, and you’ll just keep going in circles, asking them again and again, only to end up hurting yourself every time. And one day, they’ll simply say, “Enough. It’s not even that big of a deal.” Because maybe they don’t even know why they did it. They just did it. But hey, they still care about you and want the best for you, right? So I guess you should feel better now. Everything’s fine. Nothing to be upset about.

I used ai in the top 1 percent in 2025. I hate myself for it, I’m trying to stop, I’m using it much less but I can’t fully. I want everyone to hate me for it but I want no one to know. I can’t fix that, what could I do to fix that? Sorry? Like sorry can help that. I’ve been trying to stop, but it’s addicting, I’m pathetic, I can’t stop. I use it every month at least now, but I use to use it every day. It’s probably good progress but I can’t tell myself that because it’s not fair that I get to have that peace.

My boyfriend broke up. He’s trans. I never even got to tell my parents he is. They still refer to him with his deadname and it kills me but I’m too much of a pussy to tell them I’m gay. If I did, they might just say “You’re not even gay, she’s not even a man”, and I think that scares me most, more than them hating me. I don’t blame him, the breakup hasn’t been messy, I’m just disappointed in myself. Percy, if you’re reading this, I really do wish the best for you. You don’t need drugs or alcohol to feel good, even if it’s hard with family or anything, maybe I’m too privileged to say that. But I love you. Bye.

So my bestie is a Trans guy, we’re both 17. I am a cis male. Sometimes I don’t know how to comfort him when he’s having dysphoria. I just want advice from TRANS PEOPLE. What are somethings to help comfort him, make him feel okay in social settings, get him to smile more, or if he needs me to be like “yeah man that sucks” is that acceptable? I just get so overwhelmed/unsure of what to say because I’m not a trans person. I want to be able to help. What can I do

I have a secret. I can’t tell anyone. It’s not like I murdered someone, I didn’t do drugs, it’s something I’d need a paragraph to explain but I’m choosing to not give the world that, not even anonymously. It started in fifth grade, it was something I did ultra secretively, and I’d spend at least an hour on it everyday, every night. I was obsessed, I couldn’t let myself stop, because I’d be a terrible person if I did, but I knew it was terrible for me, for my grades. Then, in sixth grade, I kinda… realized it wasn’t something I should be doing. I tried to get back into it, I had spent an entire year telling myself my life was worth less than everyone else’s, because duh trolley problem. But I couldn’t, and then I got a boyfriend, and it became harder to go back because I loved him and if I loved him then I couldn’t leave. I think this story is vague, maybe people will think it’s fake, I don’t blame anyone. I just wanted to get this out. It’s a whole year later, bye to that chapter.

every time i vent about things, someone almost immediately responds back with negativity and i get so scared about it responding or going on that i just delete the post. it feels cowardly and i know the people who see it probably think it is and i want to not care but sometimes i really really care. i just wish i felt safe talking about it to anyone. i want a hug. i want to be able to feel safe talking about anything with anyone without feeling like i have to justify it. i hate feeling like being transmasc is something i have to defend. i hate feeling like my oppression is something that has to be defended. if anyone sees this, please just listen to the people around you. trans people are not your enemy. transmascs and trans men are not your enemy. please. we're all just as scared as you are. being scared should not be our default. i love you. i'm sorry

i'm so tired of trans discourse. i'm so tired of seeing someone and thinking they're cool only to find out they peddle binaries and exorsexism and all that other shit. i question if they even realize other people are human. i'm so tired. i don't want to be called a theyfab. i don't want to be called a tme, i don't want to be called any of those things if you're going to use it to hurt me. i just want to be human? can i say i'm a trans man and a human in the same breath and have the trans part still be attached? i want to be loved. i want to be accepted. i want to be able to vent about how excluded and harmed those terms make me feel without someone in the replies contesting me and telling me that's not allowed. i just want comfort. i should get off the internet, but i'll still think about it anyway

Why do I have to understand my mom? Do people not think that I have already done that? Why would I want her to get mad and upset, especially when those emotions will be pushed onto me? I already try so hard to make her happy; I do everything for her so she doesn't have to complain so she doesn'thave to stress. Why am I being told that? I already know; I've been trying to be easy myself so she doesn't have to think of me as an inconvenience. But it seems like me simply existing is too much stress on her.

is it bad to say now that school is actually a few hours away, I want to kill myself?????? I actuallyiung fucking hate school. YES I know that its supposed to not be fun, but the anxiety it brings fucking kills me. School has been the NUMBER ONE THING to bring down my confidence by like a thousand notches. Now, I'm just some lonely fucker who has friends that sometimes talk to them. I feel fucking pathetic. dude, I take my medication for my depression, but how am I supposed to go through school again? and face those classmates again?? im tired, and I want to just sleep forever. but. I have a partner thats still with me, and now that I feel like pressure is on me to just continue living because I don't want to make my partner do something irrational... I love my partner, I truly do, but now that school is coming, I don't think i'll have a very good mindset anymore. someone please fucking help me. I feel as if I'm being selfish, but I don't know if my head will be ok.has it ever been?

As a 15 year old with mental issues It's so fucking unfair to live in a world like this. I'm stuck living a life where I have to live up to other people's standards and to take blames and deal with their burdens. WHEN WILL SOMEONE DEAL WITH MY DEPRESSION!? HUH!? I barely have proper coping mechanisms because daily, I feel like absolute SHIT to the point where I have to bite, cut and/or starve myself to tune out suicidal thoughts. And recently I've been trying to overdose myself or trying to trigger my allergies to kms. I wanna go away and die in a corner so life can be better without me in it. ( ;´ - `;)

My father is selfishly taking land to extend his property. He bought the house next door and beside it is a small forest which has a trail. It's a key part of growing up here and kids use it all the time. My father is greedy and since nobody owns the land, he's horrifically cleared it out to claim it so he can do a giant extension. It's so ugly and my heart is broken. How dare he do that to the environment and the animals. He ruined their homes all for his selfish wants. I wish so desperately that someone reports him and the project gets stopped. I hate him so much in general and he just keeps getting worse. He's not a good person but my family praise him to the sky. I never want to see or speak to him again. He can live his horrible life. I wish I could move out but it's too expensive. I'm so furious over what he's done. Seeing the land ripped apart is making me so upset and I can't do anything about it
