talking transphobia
Looking at any post about the TSA or like, gender markers on ID or really anything involving trans people interacting with capitalist institutions is the most rage inducing radicalising shit ever. Down with cis.Maybe I can use my newfound gabapentin powers to actually get involved locally and do something useful. I would like to and I have free time. I always walk past that queer center downtown though because, what and who is in there? How do I say things and what do I say??? Fucked up.
How is that working btw? Does it help with the social anxiety?
It's okay so far? Adjustment period moodswings are not cool and you have to take it at pretty much the same time each night, but it heavily blunts my fight-or-flight response and I can't feel my brain shooting me up with bad chemicals every time I have an anxious thought, which themselves happen less.
Whatβs that like? So you still get anxious thoughts but it feels different? Like it affects you physically less? Sorry if this is too much, Iβm just really interested in something more effective and/or with less side effects than the cipralex I currently take.
Yeah like, I still have the "wah I did a bad" thought but whatever chemical and physical reactions accompany it are not there. I can be more grounded.
No worries though ask away β¨
