My whole life was a lie

I leaned to my family expecting support, and what I got was just them expecting me to be someone I never was

They see "future" in me, not a human with their own needs

They think they know what I should spend my energy on, and they think that me crying is not an excuse for me "not doing my work", just me being "in my hole" and "doing nothing"

I feel like I'm a slave for them or something

Or just "overreacting", ofc /s

Maybe it's true, but why am I so incapable of doing whatever they ask/demand me to do?

I want to run, not sure where or how

May I just not wake up?

Please?

@SunCat What the hell is that

Do you have resources where you live? Transgender groups, medical care (for your depression)? Do you need resources?

@redbookworm
I live in Russia, and I have no idea tbh

@redbookworm
There is one non-lgbt therapist I kinda know about, and sometimes talk with them, but they haven't been too much help tbh

@SunCat @redbookworm I'd add Autistic community support as well, especially if crying is part of shutdowns or meltdowns

@shoutcacophony
Yeah, I had a serious shutdown and inability to speak last night, too

Well, the only Russian resources I've ever found were about praising ABA, so it feels like I'm stuck there

And tbh it feels like my family is themselves neurodivergent but they are too used to the NT world so they don't want to understand me properly <.<
