I'm working with a therapist to figure out if I should transition (32/MTF). She told me about how much I'd benefit from this trans support group, but it feels like it has been all rep-fuel. Is that her plan?
Here is what I've seen: >lots of mtf hons, only people my age or youngshits are pooners >balding hons, so delusional that they don't wear wigs. >literal autists >tranners who act like they've just learned that society hates us >tranners who want to be as visible as possible, but get upset when they encounter said hatred. >50 year old white MTF: "Um, hey, y'all, I just wanna say: you're like so valid! I want to give you affirmation" >Nonsense chosen names...that are often misspelled. >legit mental illness on display
I feel so lost and alone in this. I'm afraid that if I say anything to my therapist, she going to accuse me of being an overly critical bitch or not really trans. Are there any transpeople like me? I feel so disillusioned, because the emotional toll of being trans requires a good support system. Where can I find MTF basic bitches?
>How much I'd benefit from this trans support group >but it feels like it has been all rep-fuel You figured it out and you still seem confused what gives?

She genuinely believes this stuff is normal and that I should be more accepting of other people. Personally, I doubt that I'd feel this level of disgust, if I associated with normal MTF women.
I get mixed signals from her about transition. One day she is very supportive and will refer to me as a woman, but then they next day kind of forget where we are in therapy. I think she is just old and forgetful, desu.

people from all walks of life show up to support groups, user go to literally any other support group for any topic and it'll give you an equally depressing insight into the average individual human being sorry to say this, but you're 32 and just looking into transitioning now. you were the repfuel for people at that support group, too. set your shit straight before someone else does for you

>Where can I find MTF basic bitches? hi my therapists all went on and on about support groups but I had and have the exact same reservations about them as you do. And yes, being trans does require a good support system, being alone the past 3 years has not been fun

She won't write me a letter if I'm not a regular member of a support group. I sometimes wonder if emotionally healthy transwomen are too well-adjusted for trans support groups.
How are you dealing with transition? How did you find a good support system?

this is why you should use /tttt/ as your support group we have bdd passoids, schizos (me), depressed people who know society hates them and are past giving a shit (also me), extreme cisnormatives, repressors, and a small sprinkling of self-hating hons (who the bdd passoids think incorrectly that they are among)

What empty affirmations and terrible advice can this board give me?
