As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

- Your loved ones can also take care of you
- lean on the people you love if it feels too much
- 🫂 It sucks that everything's been going wrong, and that there's been yet another delay to medical transition. Like the others said, it's okay to need to lean on others, everyone needs it sometimes. The fact you've been doing so much as is is proof that you're strong enough to get through it, it's okay to slow down if you need it though. I know that's hard when there's time pressures involved, but still. You're a wonderful, smart woman, I'm sure you can get through it ❤
  For what it's worth, it's also okay to not always be completely on, I spent most of the winter boymoding, I often neglect shaving. Sometimes people feel apathetic about it because the dysphoria or depression or whatever else got stronger than before and you need to recharge before you can do it again.
