I cry

Why do I cry ? Because I’m being forced into something I don’t want ? Because I’m losing a grip on my original identity? Because my potential new identity makes me sensitive to certain topics I was never sensitive about ? Because while I don’t feel pleasure from the idea of it, nor does it FEEL natural, I don’t feel disgust amymore ?

Or maybe it’s because my desperate struggle to normalcy has become impossible now.

Excuse while I finishing crying

It’s over

I told my self that if I got another “reaction” from testing, then I’d have to accept that I’ve changed, Now, I’m just a shadow of my former self. I wish I could disappear. Eventually, I’ll have to face the person that got the “reaction” out of me. I’ll never get into a relationship, or maybe even have friends at this point. I hate my life.

Analogy

In the year 2021, I was dropped into the ocean. Doing everything in my power to get back to shore. I don’t have the capacity to breathe underwater. All I can do is try my hardest not to drown. All I have is the hope that maybe I won’t be in this predicament. I don’t know why this had to happen to me, but help me. Please.

In the present year, it’s almost like I’ve become content with being in the ocean. I want to back to shore, but then there’s a part of me that feels like going back wouldn’t feel right anymore. It feels like I’m comfortable in this position. The last thing for me to do is accept it.

Small rant

I tested my self against my better judgement. I observed my reaction and realized that it’s an “imitation” of what I desire. After testing, I acted out my actual desires in my head and it felt good and got a reaction.

However, what scares me is what if my reaction to my desire carried over from my testing. I checked myself after testing and didn’t find a reaction, but just from imagining the sensation of what I desire I got a genuine only some minutes after I tested myself.
