i didnt know where else to put this. But yea i've had my binder for about a month now and my dad searched my phone last night and saw me talk about my binder like once with my friend. he made me watch as he cut it into a million pieces and throw it in the trash.... and my birthday is in less than a week. so yea happy bday to me lol i cant have anything good going for myself. oh and its also almost a new semester with new classes and i thought i would maybe have a better shot at passing as male this time around but now thats gooone. i've been so much less dysphoric with it and now i know imma start spiraling and probably falling back into self harm. idk just a rant i guess but yea this sucks, i can barely even pass with a binder s without it i'm hopeless

Hi Rusty, very sorry to read this has happened to you. Is there anyone you can talk to right now? Have you managed to look at the mermaids page or the LGBT Switchboard to talk to someone? Forums are an always good start but sometimes taking the step to talk to another person can help. Please see below some useful links for you: mermaidsuk.org.uk/about-us/ - Speak to a trained member of the Mermaids team. 08088010400 switchboard.lgbt - 0300 330 0630 Open 10:00-22:00 every day www.lgbthero.org.uk/self-harm (some useful information on here) www.lgbthero.org.uk/self-harmTalking to someone can: Reduce isolation and loneliness. Give you information you were not aware of. A chance to be listened to. Ways to cope better with mental and emotional distress. Improve self-esteem. Hope that helps and that you are doing okay.
