had a good conversation with a friend about how fucked it is that trans people are supposed to simultaneously perform disastrous and perfect mental health
"hello doctor, I am in so much distress I cannot function, but also, I am an extremely calm and rational person."
very awkward to get to the "does your family know your transgender status, and do they support you" section of the interview as a 40-year-old who is 5 states away and 20 years ago from that question being relevant
i feel like chronic pain is... a different boat but in similar bad sailing conditions 🫠 like please display and express an appropriate amount of pain so that you are not judged to be Faking It For Attention (too calm) or Faking It For Attention (too dramatic)
like i don't know doctors have you ever considered Believing People and dealing with problems if/as they arrive, maybe, instead of making this into improv theater
