Here's why I think I'm a selfish person. I have really bad intrusive thoughts, I need to speak with a therapist on this, too. If I were given the choice between Choice A) Anything I want/a million dollars but I have to kill my friend(s) or B) My friend(s) stay(s) alive but I don't get what I want, I would probably kill my friend. Especially when pressured. But I'm complex. I value human life, pretty much, or any life in general, and don't want to kill anybody. I would just kill when or if necessary and if I didn't get caught. I still care about my friendships though, so I don't say I'm gonna kill them or go out of my way to harm them or our friendship. I would really prefer to have all my friends as is but I feel like if pressured enough between two choices, I would kill to get what I want. I'm so ashamed of this, I feel SO bad.

Hi, transmasc teen here. I have had a past with the social worker at my high school refusing to use the correct name and pronouns because I have to come out to my family if I do so. I don't wanna have to come out to my family, because even the most supportive members are anti-Testosterone. I am pro-Testosterone. They also say I will always have boobs and a vagina even if I get the surgeries because that's how I was born, and that I'm just a confused girl, when I know in my heart I am Anthony the sure and secure guy.

I haven't had a session with her in a while, so I don't know if she will use Anthony and he/him in private, but she won't let other teachers know that's what I would like to be called and calls me my birth name and uses she/her pronouns, but "feels bad". IDK if this is some law or what. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and say maybe she just can't lose her job.

Hi, so I'm a high school student and I happen to be trans FtM. I know I'm quite young, but I do believe in the importance of supporting trans people, even young people just in general.

I was born a girl (obviously) but now I'm a guy named Anthony. When I came out to my social worker "Mrs. A" (not her real name or initial), she said that she was proud of me for coming out, but that if I wanted teachers to refer to me as "male", "he/him", Anthony, etc. that I'd have to come out to my legal guardian.

The thing is my guardian isn't the most supportive of trans people. I came out to him a few years ago and he said I was just a confused girl and that "the left was just pushing their agenda onto me". He loves me, I'm sure he does, but he definitely wouldn't support me.

I told my therapist and a good friend of mine and both of them said that was breaking a rule of confidentiality. My sister told me that too. My therapist wonders if it's to get it changed on paperwork or something but says that if I want to be called Anthony at school, there should be no problem.

What do you all think?

Went to bed when I felt tired at around 8pm, woke up at 5:30am before my alarm went off at 6.

Like everyone talks about how nice my ex-friends are, but they were rude to me, called me an annoying bug and stuff, and pretended they didn't know me. And I genuinely want to see them as great people like everyone else sees.

This is going to sound stupid, but one day I was talking with my ex-friend "Carol". While we were friends, someone said the word "heterozygous". Carol mentioned that she was straight, so I jokingly said "hetero, like you, Carol!'

She acted as if I called her a slur and got very offended, saying "How dare you call me 'hetero'?!" so I apologized.

(We are ex-friends because of drama [not this], which is kind of a long story, but I guess not the point of the post.)

I have heard many straight people call themselves "hetero", though, including myself when I thought I was straight.

I'm starting to suspect that something's wrong with me. I oversleep, I sleep very deeply, and I feel nothing every single day. Just... emptiness and boredom no matter what.

It was pretty good. We can discuss it here, maybe.

She really thinks I am goofy in the head and told me to "just be normal" like my sister... My dad got really pissed at her for that...

I can't talk to my dad though because he is mean to my sister and thankfully doesn't live with us.

Seriously, I sleep through alarms and people calling my name even in the same room.

Ok, so I don't feel much sexual attraction to others, but if we're close enough and they're very special to me, I won't mind having sex with them and am pretty open to doing it regardless of feeling attraction or anything like that. The attraction is there, but it feels different.
