HELP! Everyday I have thoughts in my head saying "I am a woman," "I am a transsexual," "I want to be a woman" and I also get images of my penis with blood coming out of it and being cut with a knife. What can I do to deal with this? The thoughts scare me and cause me lots of anxiety. I wish I could just stay as a man but I think I have transsexualism HELP HELP HELP!
Additional Information:
- This started 2 years ago after I WORE A DRESS. ME and MY FRIENDS decided to go to a party as the spice girls and i tried my costume on in my room and thne I thought "wtf am I doing" then a week later I was like "OMG I AM A TRANSSEXUAL"
- Now the thoughts say "I am a transsexual" "I want to be a woman" and stuff like that and they cause me lots of distress and anxiety
- I wish I could just stay as a guy but there is a lot of evidence suggesting I am a transsexual
- I cannot handle this and I dunno what to do
I NEED HELP!
All your threads smack of sensationalism, you seriously do need help. If you wish you could stay as a ''guy'' you probably are a guy.
I read your other threads, all your posts are in conflict with each other. There is NO cure, for genuine Gender Identity disorder, other than accepting it, The things you post lead me to believe that your so disgusted at the thought of being a transexual, Yet you go looking for a trans friendly place to hang out? Dressing as a spice girl does not mean you automatically become a transexual. you make it sound like a disease you suddently caught of a toilet seat or something.
By your entry on your profile, when you joined you state your a transexual.
I'm inclined to agree with Crissie. You have not indicated your in distress in any way shape or form. Posting in this manner is both unproductive and inconsequencial. If you wish to gain support then you should at least be honest to yourself. You don't sound like a transexual. You may be a crossdresser but that is for you to decide. Please don't make this our choice.
I believe there is a song written for every occasion and every person . This person calling themselves Rosie Foster as I have pointed out in the past is just taking the piss.
This song was written for people like them .

The song was absolutely precious. There are times in my life that could have been my anthem.
But I haven't made it my lifes work.

Hi rosie.
I've had a look at your posts and forums and I'd like to take a neutral position in contrast to some of the other replies.
Firstly, Transsexuality is not a problem, its a solution.
Secondly, to me, whether you are conscious of a 'gender' variance at two, twelve, twenty, or in your elephant years is irrelevant.
Further, a present and current awareness of gender difference does not exclude the possiblity of repressed memories. In fact, because of our sexual socialisation into a dichotomy of separate identities as either male or female, a lot of our feelings are suppressed by taboos and social mores.
Lastly. it would be a mistake to begin to believe that all of the members here are forlorn fools and I hope some of the replies have not caused you to think that they are.
To conclude: Take your time, think a lot, think of everything you've got. Our greatest aim, IMO, is to still be here tomorrow given all the things we have to face.
Good Luck and take care.
Chalice.
Oh us poor forlorn fools, for just writing what we think, about what has gone before.
Remember this Crissie?
