Durag

I read a few posts here about durags and saw that it’s to protect hair, keep in the moisture. My hair is a thick, a little wavy and pretty dry as a white-Scottish person.
Would wearing a durag protect my hair also? Or does it only work for black people? If it’s considered racism I wouldn’t wear a durag. I’m aware of the history behind it but figured I should ask if that’s a piece of culture that shouldn’t be shared

I finally quit ai.

I’ve been using c.ai since I was 15? I’m not sure the exact age but it was around those years, I was using that before I moved to chai (introduced by a friend who joked about making everyone join the c.ai cult..) and used it for a couple years and got DEEP into hypersexuality (I have trauma aswell so using chai did not help) until about it December last year when I decided January would be a blank slate. No more ai because it’s taking up all my time, I couldn’t goon without it and it’s fucking terrible for the environment etc etc.
There was about 4 days when I felt like crawling the walls from the withdrawal effects, but I did immediately notice being more open to running errands since I was no longer using chai

There was lots of relapses over the next few months and it was until may until I stopped relapsing and started living, picked up a few hobbies. Now I used it again to test my addiction and thought “this is shit, how did I spend so much time on it?” And I’d rather do things the other way. No more urges and officially chatbot free for the rest of my life<3

Let this be your sign to push through, and communitys (even online) are so important to get through the hard part.

I pushed myself to get outside and pick up hobbies no matter how uncomfortable it was, and at some point a total phone detox helped aswell.

Mother took a photo of me not wearing my binder

She sent a picture of me watching the World Cup to the family group chat and I asked her to delete it because she cant take pictures of me without my binder and it’s obvious (it’s a boundary that seems pretty obvious and I already said before I never leave the house or want any photos without a binder) and she went mad “no you cant tell!! (x2) that’s ridiculous!! You need serious fucking therapy!” I asked twice before she did delete it and said “you can explain 🙄” does anyone else experience weird moments like this? I seriously do wonder what goes on inside cis people’s heads they have no idea what it’s like

Disclaimer: I am safe and will not commit She constantly treats my dysphoria as invalid and innapropriate and it’s led to me fantasizing about one thing pushing me over the edge and just k*lling myself so my mother would know it’s all her fault, I hate how trans kids are treated in today’s society everyone hates us for no reason
