How do you deal with gender dysphoria?

  • For those who don't know, gender dysphoria refers to the stress, anxiety, and distress that happens because their biological sex doesn't match their gender identity. For example, think of what it'd be like for a female to be trapped in a male's body.

    I personally am not transgender, but I've noticed that gender dysphoria has been coming up on the Discord a lot lately: out of 33 mentions of dysphoria, nearly half of them have been in the last three months. So I thought it might be helpful if we had a place where people could talk about how they deal with those feelings...if there's enough feedback, maybe we could even make a guide for other members with those feelings to check out. It's just an idea, anyways. :)

  • Well, tbh, I have never experienced major dysphoria. I do hate my broad shoulders and my increased rate of thick body hair growth, but I deal with that by wearing feminine clothes and shaving. It goes away if I don't think about it.

    Idk how others deal with it though.
