    • To Hold Amber - Caveto...
    Lyrics:
    Don't let me see what I am
    cause I can't stand it, no I cant
    I'm coming back round again
    It's been over a year, I thought this was the end
    And now I don't remember comfort
    because what I am is what I'm not
    I don't belong here, it's just hopeless
    Find me a way out if you love me at all
    Don't let me hear what they say
    cause I can't stand it everyday
    I'm thinking that I should leave now
    And I don't think I'm coming back this time
    Cause now I dont remember comfort
    because what I am is what I'm not
    This phantom skin it's weird to live in
    So find me a way out if you love me at all

      @kovuchii Heyyyy, if you cannot get a haircut you could always put your hair in a ponytail or a bun and wear a hat or a baseball cap to make it sorta look like you have shorter hair! I'm not sure about the binder situation though. You could always ask a friend to order online and have it shipped to their house or pick it up on the little amazon box things at stores. If they don't understand gender dysphoria then try explaining it to them or showing them a video on it. Sorry if i couldn't help very much. But good luck~~ Lots of love.

    0:20 “I’m coming back round again. It’s been over a year, I thought this was the end” hits hard man. I’m bad with words but for me this symbolizes both dysphoria and anxiety. Like finally breaking free of either feeling and then having it happen again after you thought you had finally gotten rid of it.

    This song hit so hard. I’m a closeted trans man living with my parents. I asked for a haircut before, but i got told that i would look too much like a boy. I feel so trapped here, but I’m terrified to tell my parents, because one of them is transphobic. Hearing songs like these, and seeing other trans ppls stories helps remind me that I’m not all alone.

    I'm a trans guy, and the thing that makes me the most dysphoric isn't my height, chest, voice, or even how stupidly wide my hips are. It's cis boys.
    I'm aware I'm feminine, and whenever I'm around masculine cis guys it makes me realize how much I don't act like an actual guy. I speak femininely, dress femininely, walk femininely, and occasionally paint my nails, and sometimes it makes me feel like I'm not trans enough. Like I'm not trying hard enough to pass.
    A while ago, I went to the bathroom a minute or two before the bell rang, and it rang before I was able to finish up and leave. The bathroom almost instantly flooded with boys, and the moment I opened the stall door I just... froze. Froze, and panicked. When I finally managed to make myself go wash my hands and leave, I heard some guy in the hallway say to his friend, "There was just a girl in the boy's bathroom", and I practically ran to my bus, and almost started crying on the way home. It hurt, a lot.
    tl;dr: feminine trans guys are still trans, please respect our pronouns :(
    EDIT: wow thank you guys all for your support, since posting this I've started to identify as non-binary, using he/they(/possibly it?) pronouns and the last two times I've confused cis guys, instead of getting upset about it, I just laughed instead. Just a little while ago, some guy in the locker room said to his friend about me, "That's her. Er.. them. Er..... it." I'm aware he was trying to get under my skin, but I enjoyed it more than I really should have. :)

    My mom has reverted back to calling me by my dead name and calling me a girl because she thinks I'm just confused. And I really hurts because I know that who she thinks I am isn't me. I went from being accepted and looking like a guy to being called girl and being seen as one. I can't wait for the day I can leave this house and finally be myself, completely, 100% me.
    Edit: I usually don’t do edits like this but so many people in the replies have been asking, and I don’t have time to reply to all of them. But for anyone wondering, I’m doing... fine now. I’m still not accepted by my family, I don’t think I’ll ever be. I did realize that she was right about one thing though, I’m not a boy. But I’m also not a girl. I’m non-binary, I’m just me.

    Dysphoria is a curse, nothing else. It’s absolutely a horrible thing. Its obviously not the absolute worst thing a human can deal with but it’s definitely up on the list. Personally dysphoria just makes me constantly want to cry and hide myself from people when I’m in public. I often have to come home and just cry in my bathroom because of bad dysphoria days. To all my fellow trans people, I wish you all have an amazing day and that all your transitions go well!

Even though I'm a stranger I really hope the best for you.❤️I myself too deal with dysphoria and I really am terrified of coming out to my family. How I cope with it is think that one day, even if I tell them and they don't love me, I can leave and live the life I want. And block them out completely. I can find someone to love and understand me. And I can finally be free. Hope this helps you.

      Honestly I'm really lucky. My dysphoria isn't all that bad. It's just severe discomfort and at worst a feeling of my body not being mine. But it doesn't really make me cry. Not that bad anyway. It just kinda makes me feel hopeless. Mainly when ppl misgender me. Cuz it feels so impossible that I'll get treatment or be able to transition.

Some fucking asshole dug into his past and brought this to light and he had to come out in fear of being called transphobic. Forcing someone to come out is not okay and can make them extremely dysphoric and a violation of privacy. All around the situation is horrible, much love to CT we lysm.

    For everyone in the comments saying they're not trans but can relate. Dysphoria is something anyone can go through and comes in many forms. It's to be so insecure and not feel connected to a part of you. I'm a cis female and don't care about my gender but I have facial dysphoria. The most commonly known form of dysphoria is gender dysphoria. Those of you going through this are so brave! Everyone here is :)

    she also told me we would work on getting a binder and cutting my hair a bit shorter (my hair is shoulder length right now because when i got my haircut all of the hints i gave her that i wanted a more masculine hairstyle just flew over her head, so she told me to not get one that went over shoulder length)

First, i had a panic attack because my grandma took my binder without telling me and even though i *tried* to push the panic attack back, it didnt work. Then, i had a bout of really bad voice dysphoria so bad i refused to talk. And now im sitting here, listening to this, hating my feminine body and crying because 4 years is a long time to wait until i can get out of my parents house and into a supportive environment...
    Update: I'm almost 17. My parents are still unsupportive, but I'm out as trans and I'm much happier now. It does get better! There are people who love and support you. Keep going, don't close your eyes just before the flowers bloom.

So then she told me to pick a style and it was one i didn’t really like to much but it was good enough. so i got the hair cut and i’m glad i was wearing a mask cause the entire time i was smiling SO MUCH. i ended up styling my hair differently like how i originally wanted it (miles mckenna hair) and now my hair looks like his and i feel successful. but anyway, when i told my mom i want the hair cut she said “you know people will think you’ll look like a lesbian, right” and i just said okay 😂. but fast forward to now, i LOVE my hair and my family will sometimes call me a boy as an insult but secretly it gives me so much confidence ✌️✨

    I'm a boy but my parents refuse to accept it. My father just thinks I'm being bratty when I ask him to use my name and pronouns and acts like it's political and infringing on his free speech, and although my mom is a bit better she won't use them (even though I've explained how uncomfortable I am being called a girl). I hate meeting people because they always introduce me with my deadname, sometimes with a "she goes by..." or "she wants to be called..." and anybody who might've called me a boy will follow my parents' example and use she/her. Medically transitioning is completely out of the question until I'm at least 18 and I know my parents are going to hate me for it.
    The concept of being comfortable and happy just seems so foreign. It feels like I'll never be able to have the life or the body I want. I know consciously that that's not true, I know I'll get there eventually, but it's so hard to convince myself of that sometimes.

      I can only explain dysphoria for me as painful. Like the panic and anxiety of being hurt and knowing you're hurt, but being nearly completely unable to find where the wound is- as if you'd tripped and fell and you know you're bleeding and you're scared that it'll get worse, but there's no wound, just that intense panic, and every time you hear your dead name or dead pronouns, it's like another shard of bone shoved into your skin, but you can't find the wound. It's misery.

      I would actually challenge that since I'm fairly certain most people experience dysphoria in some form or another, certainly not the same dysphoria as you but no experience is felt the same way by anyone anyway. I don't identify as trans but I probably could, I just don't want to for a number of reasons, and having talked about this to a lot of people in a lot of situations I think transness is just an inherent part of being human in the society we live in. No one really knows what being a boy or a girl feels like, it's just that for trans people the word they were assigned doesn't fit their experiences with the world or themself in such a strong way that they have to pick a different one or they won't be able to function. The word they pick also depends on their experiences with themself and the world around them, as does the ways in which they change outwardly to fit that word. Basically it's just a whole tangled mess of perceptions and assumptions and labels and requirements set by your subconscious in response to the information it receives, and that's something most people understand, some more than others.

I know nobody is going to read this but if you are and you feel like you can't continue anymore, trust me it gets better, sure you might be unhappy and dysphoric, but it just takes time, that's what I told myself while i had long hair and I still tell myself that to this day, but don't give up because I believe in you and people love you

I just can't help but thinking of going off to college and cutting all my hair off and getting a binder and buys myself boys clothes and coming back home as Alex, the son, grandson, brother. Sometimes it feels so close, but other days I can't even imagine it happening because I get so depressed about not being able to express myself that I don't want to get out of bed.
      I'll hold on though, I'll make it out, the light at the end of the tunnel is gonna be my future self wearing the most repulsive ugly Hawaiian shirt with dress pants and a silver box chain dangling around my neck with a pair of hipster glasses frames opening my family's front door shouting "Hello, I'm back from college!" in the manliest voice possible.

    I'm listening to this, relating to it in such a personal way. I got my hair cut short and bought my own binder because no one else will do it. I'm lucky, though. There are people who can't do any of that because of so many in their life who won't support them. To all of you out there who are in that situation, I want you to know that your feelings are valid and that despite the current situation, you will transition to the gender that you feel you are later in life. But until then, know that a random person on the internet is here to talk and is wishing you well on your transition.

Dysphoria has had my brain focusing on the cis female life I never had. My heart yearns for a life that I was robbed of. The line: “I don’t belong here. It’s just hopeless. Find me a way out if you love me… at all” made me cry. It made me into a human waterfall. Even though it hurt so so much. This song helped me get out of a suicidal rabbit hole I had dug myself into.

    _i sadly relate to this song ;_
    I'm a Genderless {agender} enby, who's parents aren't the _most_ accepting, especially my father, but my mom has made an attempt with my preferred pronouns, but my preferred name? not so much. But my teachers have actually been calling me by my preferred name and pronouns, which is honestly wonderful. And I've known I have been nonbinary since about 2 years ago, during the summer of 2019.
    At first I was skeptical, not understanding what 'nonbinary' meant, and convinced I was trans, but honestly that didn't feel right, going by *just* male pronouns. after doing some research, I figured out I _was_ nonbinary, and labeled myself as just simply enby for the time being. Fast forward two years later, a few months ago I figured out I am either Agender or Demiboy.
    But theres the next thing. I am also Demiromantic, and haven't came out to my parents yet. As far as they know, I'm a Bisexual Nonbinary. I really am not. I'm torn between wondering if I'm Panromantic or Demiromantic. And almost constantly feel Dysphoria when someone calls me by my deadname and pronouns, and almost always get jealous when I see someone else looking androgynous {someone that goes on my bus looks extremely androgynous which makes me *j e a l o u s* every time}

      Crazy cookie i came out to my family and they still say she a lot but they call me Oliver now and they’re trying to understand. I don’t speak to my brothers anymore bc they’re bigots and I’ve been bullied a couple of times but my friends have been accepting. It’s rocky but it’s bearable. Thank you for asking I hope things get better for you too

    i swear these words were taken straight out of my brain. i have felt this for so long and my family doesn't believe me. they hate my name, they won't use my pronouns, they even said that if/when i decide to get top surgery and go on t they will not even contribute a dime. if you are in a similar position, or even if you do have a supportive family, you are loved, you are worthy, and you are needed in this world.

    As a nb person with dysphoria it really helps 2 hear another trans person express their experiences, my dysphoria has gotten a lot better in the past few years!!! Its almost nonexistent for me now a days, but I still have moments. With any trans and nb person struggling with dysphoria it does get better with time once you start to love yourself!!! Its hard but I'm really proud of all you trans and nb people 💖

    Yes I'm nonbinary. I would like to present myself as a "pretty boy" but can't really do that because I'll look feminine. I wanna be happy in my skin. I'm gonna have to wear a dress today. Its Easter I have to meet family and act like how they want. I wanna be pretty the way a boy can. I wanna look like no gender at all. I just wish mom would understand
