hi :)
i'm late 20s mtf, and have improved my life a ton over the past couple years. early/mid 20s i was a complete loser. unemployed, suicidal, drug/alcohol addict. a lot of the time i would go days without showering just because it was hard getting out of bed. was fat.
i started to eat better, and exercise some. lost a lot of weight. i got a job and have like actual financial goals now. made a friend until i lost her. got clean, no more drugs and stuff. doing college finally.
but sometimes i get very depressed, and the feelings of loneliness are overwhelming. feels like i slip up and lose a good chunk of life progress and have to work twice as hard to gain it back. now is one of those times. i don't know what to do about it, really. kinda want to die.
i wish i had a boyfriend.

Hey, live life at your own rythm.
Be glad you got it together, that's pretty fucking huge, and set yourself short term goals.
One day at a time, but you already beated the worst.

yeah. i am lots better now. but it usually doesn't feel like it? and i still feel like i don't measure up to the other people i know. still an outsider. still kinda lost. and i'm very behind.

hope you don't mean i'm crazy because i'm trans. so tired of that nonsense.

That's exactly what he meant and I'll tell you the same thing. You have a mental illness, though it's not all your fault. Those that encourage this reckless behavior are to blame too. If it were up to me, I would make it illegal for anyone under the age of 30 to have a sex change so that they can make reflections and think about this permanent life altering decision, rather than jumping head first and still being perplexed after the outcome you thought you wanted didn't solve all of your unhappiness/uncomfiness. I hope you sincerely like who you've become. Plenty of trans before you killed themselves after.

i never thought that transitioning would solve all of my problems. cis people have problems too.
it's made my life a LOT better though. and it's not at all a mental illness. stop trolling please.

Well, nobody has all sorted out. It may look like that from the outside, but more often than not, everyone's afraid.
If you're depressed thou, you should get pro help. Been there, done that. Best advice I can give.
