I finally got around to seeing “I Saw The TV Glow”, and it definitely lived up to the hype.

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It’s for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

    yeah but i feel so stuck on a personal level, feels like I’m not going anywhere, wish I could just swap my whole identity but mmm…; at the same time I have a lot of impostor syndrome and I would like my ‘self’ to be original which bothers me a lot day to day cause I feel like an empty shell with no interests other than observing and learning from others

      I struggled with identity diffusion, as well. The symptoms and anxiety have lessened as I continue with my transition, and I find myself comparing my experiences to other experience a lot less frequently.

      If it helps, you’re original and authentic. It’s impossible for you not to be yourself. Everything you do is authentic to yourself because you’re doing it. Even if you’re trying to model your behaviors on other people, it was you who chose those people based on your own unique experience.
