Here, Queer, Playin' it by Ear

Can't just leave this in the comments

i dont have to wear a binder. i have a flat chest i can inhale as deeply as i want and i never look like i have breasts. im not aware of my chest when i go down steps, im not aware of my chest when i put in a seatbelt. when someone hugs me it's like a flat board for them. i can wear a towel around my waist around my house and go shirtless to the beach. i was subconsciously avoiding half of my closet for years until one day i realized; i DO love these shirts, and they look *so good* now that i dont have a chest. im not paranoid at my job that my coworkers will find out the truth if i reach too high or tuck in my shirt. i dont stare at my chest every time i put on an outfit any more. i dont catch myself in a mirror at a department store and hunch my back. i stand up tall. i lie shirtless in bed every night and nothing stares back at me.

When you’re mid sentence and suddenly forget literally everything you were talking about

I’ve been hit with a pretty bad wall of depression. The last month I’ve been trying to get ahead of it, but I am, unfortunately still struggling to do daily tasks, which includes work. I’ve lost out on work and payment, and I am struggling this month. I had some savings, and a small fund for my vacation in July and I have dipped into those to get by. I also need a new AC unit, but that’s just me complaining really. Anyways, I’m posting my ko-fi here. I know money is hard to come by these days and everyone is struggling. It doesn’t hurt to ask or reach out for support. Depression has me thinking pretty negatively about myself and my therapist is giving me ideas on how to work on it. Anyways, thank you all regardless. Hope you all are surviving as best you can out there.
