HIATUS

your f/o does care if youre stuck in bed

your f/o does care if you cant eat

your f/o does care if youre crying every night

your f/o does care if you have family issues

your f/o does care if youre failing school

your f/o does care if youre at your worst, if you’re spiraling into what seems impossible to recover from

your f/o does care; for your wellbeing, your future, you in general. what matters is you, not the state of you— and theyre not going anywhere. these times will pass, and they will be with you the whole time celebrating your accomplishments.

There is nothing wrong with having these feelings. In fact, it's pretty common, especially among trans and nonbinary/genderqueer folks! I remember wanting to be intersex myself before I found out I actually was. I think half of how people even find out they're intersex is really really feeling connected to it and researching it to find out more.

I recommend looking into identifying as altersex[link]! This is a completely okay term that may be accurate for you! I recommend reading this[link] post on it as well. And, (I believe), @this-is-varsexism-transphobia has information on this!

If you are looking for terms to describe transitioning your sex traits, might I suggest the following:

-Transsex (anyone who desires to transition their sex traits.) Every other term I will list from here on falls under the transsex umbrella. -Altersex (desiring mixed, null, or non-human sex traits.) -Duomorphic (an altersex identity, in which a person desires mixed sex traits.) This is preferrable over salmacian or aphrodisian, because the names for salmacian/aphrodisian both originate in the myth of hermaphroditus (which is where the h-slur comes from), and salmacian originates from a person who wanted to describe being "female-to-intersex/male-to-intersex." Plus Salmacis's entire myth centers purely around sexually assaulting Hermaphroditus, and Salmacis has no other importance in any myth. -Transgenital (desiring differing genitals.) -Transhormonal (desiring a differing hormone profile.) -Transreproductive/Transrepro (desiring a differing reproductive system/reproductive traits.)
