Don’t feel forced to use a certain label
everybody who reblogs this will get a terrible Sanders Sides pickup line in their inbox. every. single. fander.
Other Transfolk: *Thinking of what they’re gonna tell their family, asking for advice, etc.*
My stupid ass: *Spends an hour looking for good trans memes to spam my mom with to tell her I’m trans, before chickening our last minute*

You can only decide your own labels.
Open to requests
When I say, “My anxiety is acting up,” I’m really saying, “There’s no reason to be afraid. It’s just my disorder talking, and I can do something to calm down.” It’s positive.
When I say, “My depression is bad today,” I’m really saying, “I’m not worthless and I don’t deserve to die or give up. It’s just my disorder talking, and I should get up and look for what’s good about today.” It’s positive.
When I say, “My ADHD means my brain is wired differently,” I’m really saying, “I’m not a stupid piece of shit who will amount to nothing. It’s just that my brain needs help making certain connections and chemicals, and with certain processes, and there are lots of things I can try to work with it instead of against it.” It’s positive.
Talking about and accepting my disorders is the most radically positive thing I can do. It isn’t pessimism; it’s optimism. It isn’t defeatism; it’s hope. It’s direction, and action, and learning to regain control of my life.
So I don’t give a fuck if it annoys you or makes you uncomfortable. I don’t care if you think I need to think of myself as “more than my disorders”. Because I don’t think that having disorders makes me lesser. And I’m not going to silence myself because you disagree.
You’re fucking wrong, and I won’t let my own silence be the death of me.
Alright I know I’ve posted probably too much on this but I’m writing emails that I plan on sending to my teachers this weekend, this could go horribly since my parents are extremely transphobic and will hate me even more and my counselor is gonna be mad I went against her but this is like the millionth time I’ve come out and I’m kinda over this so we aren’t stopping till the teachers listen to me, wish me luck
(Hopefully I’m almost done with this whole mess and we’ll be back to your regularly scheduled memes soon)
That’s so cute I feel like the stress of school starting in 7 minutes was lifted off my shoulders-
A hummingbird thought a man’s orange hat was a flower [x]
If you can’t reblog this plz never talk to me
