    I have recently realized that I am depressed, and it may have something to do with my gender/ gender dystopia. I think this because of the fact that I've had the feeling of depression for a while, back when my original questioning started. And something in my head just says that its connected. Please help Anything does. From advice to support.

    I'm sorry to hear you are depressed right now. How long have you been feeling gender dysphoria, dear? It might certainly be connected if you are trans. Dysphoria hurts and can drag you down.
    In your case, what makes you feel like the two are connected, do you think?

    Its a nagging feeling in the back of my head. And while in real life I am male, online I go by Izzy. As for how long , I think about three years, and no one knows yet.

    (*hug*) Dysphoria's harsh. I wish I could give you an easy answer to how to feel better, but I'm dealing with dysphoria myself right now. Once you get your post count to 10, feel free to post on my wall if you want to talk, ok?
