Hello there, I'm new. Y'all can call me Code, it's a pleasure to meet you all.I'm in my 20s, and have already reached my life crisis, lol. But nothing better than to ignore all your problems by joining a new forum.
A bit about me; I've got pretty bad depression and body image, so I rarely go out or interact with other people due to self hatred and shame. It's something I've had to deal with for most of my life, but it's only gotten worse in the last 5 years or so. I'm pretty overweight, and I'm transgender to boot. So it's double the dysphoria for me. It's hard to live in a body that I hate, and it doesn't help that I'm too depressed to do anything about it. I know it probably sounds like a crybaby excuse, but it's just how it is, lol. I'm medicated, but it only helps to keep suicidal thoughts at bay, not up my motivation.
But anyways, now that the sob story is outta the way, as I was saying, I'm a trans guy. My pronouns are he/him, so thanks in advance for using my chosen pronouns.
I first got introduced to the LGBT+ community when i was in high school, and realized I was trans I'd say abooooout.... 8 or 9 years ago? But I had been showing signs since way back, just didn't know how to express myself.
Well, I think that'll be it for now lol. I might have rambled and gone off a bit. I never know how much to give away on introductions.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone around here.
Anyway, welcome to Conversations 2 (or as I like to call it, the C2; remind me to explain the reference)!
