@kovuchii Heyyyy, if you cannot get a haircut you could always put your hair in a ponytail or a bun and wear a hat or a baseball cap to make it sorta look like you have shorter hair! I'm not sure about the binder situation though. You could always ask a friend to order online and have it shipped to their house or pick it up on the little amazon box things at stores. If they don't understand gender dysphoria then try explaining it to them or showing them a video on it. Sorry if i couldn't help very much. But good luck~~ Lots of love.

0:20 “I’m coming back round again. It’s been over a year, I thought this was the end” hits hard man. I’m bad with words but for me this symbolizes both dysphoria and anxiety. Like finally breaking free of either feeling and then having it happen again after you thought you had finally gotten rid of it.

my parents are transphobic and I'm a male for sure, i haven't been able to even cut my hair, but in 15 days I'm chopping it off when I drive to a hair salon. I'm tired of hiding.

This song hit so hard. I’m a closeted trans man living with my parents. I asked for a haircut before, but i got told that i would look too much like a boy. I feel so trapped here, but I’m terrified to tell my parents, because one of them is transphobic. Hearing songs like these, and seeing other trans ppls stories helps remind me that I’m not all alone.

As a fem trans guy, you are completely valid ! you being masculine does not define you being a guy at all! You are amazing just the way you are, so go be the amazing femboy you are !

Saw this pop up in my recommended and thought I'd give this a listen for old times sake. And holy crap did I forget how utterly draining dysphoria is. So glad I got the meds I needed.

My mom has reverted back to calling me by my dead name and calling me a girl because she thinks I'm just confused. And I really hurts because I know that who she thinks I am isn't me. I went from being accepted and looking like a guy to being called girl and being seen as one. I can't wait for the day I can leave this house and finally be myself, completely, 100% me. Edit: I usually don’t do edits like this but so many people in the replies have been asking, and I don’t have time to reply to all of them. But for anyone wondering, I’m doing... fine now. I’m still not accepted by my family, I don’t think I’ll ever be. I did realize that she was right about one thing though, I’m not a boy. But I’m also not a girl. I’m non-binary, I’m just me.

"This phantom skin is weird to live in." That hit hard.

I'm a trans guy, and the thing that makes me the most dysphoric isn't my height, chest, voice, or even how stupidly wide my hips are. It's cis boys. I'm aware I'm feminine, and whenever I'm around masculine cis guys it makes me realize how much I don't act like an actual guy. I speak femininely, dress femininely, walk femininely, and occasionally paint my nails, and sometimes it makes me feel like I'm not trans enough. Like I'm not trying hard enough to pass. A while ago, I went to the bathroom a minute or two before the bell rang, and it rang before I was able to finish up and leave. The bathroom almost instantly flooded with boys, and the moment I opened the stall door I just... froze. Froze, and panicked. When I finally managed to make myself go wash my hands and leave, I heard some guy in the hallway say to his friend, "There was just a girl in the boy's bathroom", and I practically ran to my bus, and almost started crying on the way home. It hurt, a lot. tl;dr: feminine trans guys are still trans, please respect our pronouns :( EDIT: wow thank you guys all for your support, since posting this I've started to identify as non-binary, using he/they(/possibly it?) pronouns and the last two times I've confused cis guys, instead of getting upset about it, I just laughed instead. Just a little while ago, some guy in the locker room said to his friend about me, "That's her. Er.. them. Er..... it." I'm aware he was trying to get under my skin, but I enjoyed it more than I really should have. :)

when i had long hair i used to wear it i a pony tail or bun every day and night because i didn’t like to have my hair down. eventually i started getting really bad headaches to the point where i couldn’t even put my head on my pillow. so i told my mom this and how my curly hair was hard to manage and that it was starting to get hot she FINALLY (after 2 years) let me cut my hair. So then she told me to pick a style and it was one i didn’t really like to much but it was good enough. so i got the hair cut and i’m glad i was wearing a mask cause the entire time i was smiling SO MUCH. i ended up styling my hair differently like how i originally wanted it (miles mckenna hair) and now my hair looks like his and i feel successful. but anyway, when i told my mom i want the hair cut she said “you know people will think you’ll look like a lesbian, right” and i just said okay 😂. but fast forward to now, i LOVE my hair and my family will sometimes call me a boy as an insult but secretly it gives me so much confidence ✌️✨ -closeted trans non-binary person 🌈

For everyone in the comments saying they're not trans but can relate. Dysphoria is something anyone can go through and comes in many forms. It's to be so insecure and not feel connected to a part of you. I'm a cis female and don't care about my gender but I have facial dysphoria. The most commonly known form of dysphoria is gender dysphoria. Those of you going through this are so brave! Everyone here is :)

Some fucking asshole dug into his past and brought this to light and he had to come out in fear of being called transphobic. Forcing someone to come out is not okay and can make them extremely dysphoric and a violation of privacy. All around the situation is horrible, much love to CT we lysm.

(my dad didn't know about me questioning yet, etc.) but that night while i was cleaning the kitchen she called me echo, my preferred name. i almost cried. i don't think she even realizes how much that means to me. she also told me we would work on getting a binder and cutting my hair a bit shorter (my hair is shoulder length right now because when i got my haircut all of the hints i gave her that i wanted a more masculine hairstyle just flew over her head, so she told me to not get one that went over shoulder length) i'm scared of what my dad would think though. he's not a bad person, but i've learned to never go to him about my mental health.

Dysphoria is a curse, nothing else. It’s absolutely a horrible thing. Its obviously not the absolute worst thing a human can deal with but it’s definitely up on the list. Personally dysphoria just makes me constantly want to cry and hide myself from people when I’m in public. I often have to come home and just cry in my bathroom because of bad dysphoria days. To all my fellow trans people, I wish you all have an amazing day and that all your transitions go well!

How I cope with it is think that one day, even if I tell them and they don't love me, I can leave and live the life I want. And block them out completely. I can find someone to love and understand me. And I can finally be free. Hope this helps you.

Honestly I'm really lucky. My dysphoria isn't all that bad. It's just severe discomfort and at worst a feeling of my body not being mine. But it doesn't really make me cry. Not that bad anyway. It just kinda makes me feel hopeless. Mainly when ppl misgender me. Cuz it feels so impossible that I'll get treatment or be able to transition.

“What I am is what I’m not” I actually want this line tattooed, it hits me so damn hard 🥺

I'm a tranfem. It's such a trap that we all live one time, but not even in our bodies.

First, i had a panic attack because my grandma took my binder without telling me and even though i *tried* to push the panic attack back, it didnt work. Then, i had a bout of really bad voice dysphoria so bad i refused to talk. And now im sitting here, listening to this, hating my feminine body and crying because 4 years is a long time to wait until i can get out of my parents house and into a supportive environment... Update: I'm almost 17. My parents are still unsupportive, but I'm out as trans and I'm much happier now. It does get better! There are people who love and support you.

This im non binary and a few months ago i introduced my self as using they/them pronouns they audibly gasped…. And in the next sentence misgendered me in-front of the entire class. If I didn’t have a stupid famine body maybe that wouldn’t happen

I'm a boy but my parents refuse to accept it. My father just thinks I'm being bratty when I ask him to use my name and pronouns and acts like it's political and infringing on his free speech, and although my mom is a bit better she won't use them (even though I've explained how uncomfortable I am being called a girl). I hate meeting people because they always introduce me with my deadname, sometimes with a "she goes by..." or "she wants to be called..." and anybody who might've called me a boy will follow my parents' example and use she/her. Medically transitioning is completely out of the question until I'm at least 18 and I know my parents are going to hate me for it. The concept of being comfortable and happy just seems so foreign. It feels like I'll never be able to have the life or the body I want. I know consciously that that's not true, I know I'll get there eventually, but it's so hard to convince myself of that sometimes.

In my opinion dysphoria is one of the worst pains there is. And only a small portion of the people in the world have to experience it. Though it doesn’t hurt physically the amount of discomfort your mind is put through is horrible. My dysphoria doesn’t give me a break. Never. When I’m older I’m going on t, when I can afford it I’m having top surgery, and maybe even bottom, I hope so anyway..

I can only explain dysphoria for me as painful. Like the panic and anxiety of being hurt and knowing you're hurt, but being nearly completely unable to find where the wound is- as if you'd tripped and fell and you know you're bleeding and you're scared that it'll get worse, but there's no wound, just that intense panic, and every time you hear your dead name or dead pronouns, it's like another shard of bone shoved into your skin, but you can't find the wound. It's misery.

I would actually challenge that since I'm fairly certain most people experience dysphoria in some form or another, certainly not the same dysphoria as you but no experience is felt the same way by anyone anyway. I don't identify as trans but I probably could, I just don't want to for a number of reasons, and having talked about this to a lot of people in a lot of situations I think transness is just an inherent part of being human in the society we live in. No one really knows what being a boy or a girl feels like, it's just that for trans people the word they were assigned doesn't fit their experiences with the world or themself in such a strong way that they have to pick a different one or they won't be able to function. The word they pick also depends on their experiences with themself and the world around them, as does the ways in which they change outwardly to fit that word. Basically it's just a whole tangled mess of perceptions and assumptions and labels and requirements set by your subconscious in response to the information it receives, and that's something most people understand, some more than others.

_i sadly relate to this song ;_ I'm a Genderless {agender} enby, who's parents aren't the _most_ accepting, especially my father, but my mom has made an attempt with my preferred pronouns, but my preferred name? not so much. But my teachers have actually been calling me by my preferred name and pronouns, which is honestly wonderful. And I've known I have been nonbinary since about 2 years ago, during the summer of 2019. At first I was skeptical, not understanding what 'nonbinary' meant, and convinced I was trans, but honestly that didn't feel right, going by *just* male pronouns. after doing some research, I figured out I _was_ nonbinary, and labeled myself as just simply enby for the time being. Fast forward two years later, a few months ago I figured out I am either Agender or Demiboy. But theres the next thing. I am also Demiromantic, and haven't came out to my parents yet. As far as they know, I'm a Bisexual Nonbinary. I really am not. I'm torn between wondering if I'm Panromantic or Demiromantic. And almost constantly feel Dysphoria when someone calls me by my deadname and pronouns, and almost always get jealous when I see someone else looking androgynous {someone that goes on my bus looks extremely androgynous which makes me *j e a l o u s* every time} anygays, thank you for listening to me. Have a wonderful day whomever you are!!

As a non binary person who has social anxiety who is scared to come out to my parents Cavetown has always calmed me down and he will ALWAYS have a soft spot in my heart

As someone struggle with gender dysphoria (and also parents who don't even try to use proper pronouns smh), I can relate to this so much. It helps me when I'm feeling down and I'm so grateful for that.

"it's been over a year" really gets me, especially right now, because around this time last year I realised I'm trans and I never thought that I'd be where I am today; short hair, boys clothes, out to some of my close friends and family. I know nobody is going to read this but if you are and you feel like you can't continue anymore, trust me it gets better, sure you might be unhappy and dysphoric, but it just takes time, that's what I told myself while i had long hair and I still tell myself that to this day, but don't give up because I believe in you and people love you

Thank you. I came out to my family two weeks ago (I've known I'm trans for a while, but I was always to afraid to say), and my family said I was too young to know (I'm 16). I just can't help but thinking of going off to college and cutting all my hair off and getting a binder and buys myself boys clothes and coming back home as Alex, the son, grandson, brother. Sometimes it feels so close, but other days I can't even imagine it happening because I get so depressed about not being able to express myself that I don't want to get out of bed. I'll hold on though, I'll make it out, the light at the end of the tunnel is gonna be my future self wearing the most repulsive ugly Hawaiian shirt with dress pants and a silver box chain dangling around my neck with a pair of hipster glasses frames opening my family's front door shouting "Hello, I'm back from college!" in the manliest voice possible. I know that's blown out of proportion, but, hey, it makes me laugh and hope a bit more.

I feel like a dude sometimes, I feel like a girl sometimes. I feel non-binary sometimes. sometimes I wish I was born a boy. I hate my feminine voice, I hate my feminine mannerisms. I hate my hips. But I still identify as a female sometimes. I like being a butch woman. I like being a feminine boy. I like being a confusing nonbinary pal. And thats ok, you matter, youre valid. Edit: I am a trans boy. Thank you ❤️

2 months ago i commented on this video saying i didn't know my gender. Since then I've seen a therapist and came out to my friends and family as a trans boy. Its rocky at the minute, but my hair now short!! And my friends going to get me a binder for my birthday! The dysphoria is horrible at the moment but this song helps even just a little bit. :)

congrats on the binder part!! I came out to my family as trans this year, already cut my hair and hopefully I'm getting a binder for christmas! hope your transitioning goes safe, healthy, and well!!! much love from a random trans boi online

Today is my birthday and my bf said he was going to buy me a binder but he couldn't because the store canceled the order, but i was so happy just to know that he thought of giving it to me as a gift, i love him so much... Happy birthday to me:)

I'm listening to this, relating to it in such a personal way. I got my hair cut short and bought my own binder because no one else will do it. I'm lucky, though. There are people who can't do any of that because of so many in their life who won't support them. To all of you out there who are in that situation, I want you to know that your feelings are valid and that despite the current situation, you will transition to the gender that you feel you are later in life. But until then, know that a random person on the internet is here to talk and is wishing you well on your transition.

“Don’t let me hear what they say. Because I can’t stand it everyday, I’m thinking that I should leave” I relate to this so hard. Like if I don’t come out I hear them say “she” all the time and I’m slowly starting to not be able to handle it. If I do come out my town is so judgemental I can’t stand to listen, so maybe I should just go.

Yes I'm nonbinary. I would like to present myself as a "pretty boy" but can't really do that because I'll look feminine. I wanna be happy in my skin. I'm gonna have to wear a dress today. Its Easter I have to meet family and act like how they want. I wanna be pretty the way a boy can. I wanna look like no gender at all. I just wish mom would understand

Some good things have happened to me recently (: 1. My mom started using my pronouns (they/them) and even called me Seb once! 2. I was looking in a mirror the other day and I felt masculine. Like I had my hair tied up (so it looked like it was gone) and I had my glasses on, and I looked like a boy. It was awesome

For some reason I feel fake. I question if I'm really trans

I think we've all felt that way before. Just know that you are who you are, and nobody knows you better than you know yourself. You may be trans, you may not be. Just do whatever feels right to you. If anybody has a problem with it, they don't deserve to know you. And you deserve better than them. The fact that you're worried about this tells me that it means a lot to you. I don't think any "fakers" would question themselves on whether or not they're fake. I know you'll figure yourself out. Some people take time in doing so, and if that ends up being you, that's okay. Whether you're trans or not, fluid or static, binary or otherwise, that's okay. Just stay strong. There's no rush. Do what makes you happy, and strive to become the person you want to be. I'm rooting for you!

@@rileyrandall9612 This is a SUPER unhealthy mindset to have actually It's normal to question yourself. I do sometimes, too But for one thing, you don't actually need dysphoria to be trans. Dysphoria is defined as distress related to your birth sex, and you don't need to feel that way in order to be trans Also, whether you transition or not is up to you, whether you're dysphoric or not. Do what feels right to YOU. Just be aware of any changes that can occur, and if you don't want those changes, perhaps you can find other options And don't worry about "embarrassing" anyone. Every trans person has different experiences. If any trans person is embarrassed of you based on how you present, what your gender is, or whether or not you choose to transition, they have some internal transphobia they need to sort through Do what feels right to YOU. Don't worry what anyone else says or thinks Whether you're cis, trans, or nonbinary, you'll find what makes you happiest. And that's the road you should take. Don't let anyone scare you away from your options

@@rileyrandall9612 That...is very innacurate. I myself have very severe dysphoria, both by the actual definition AND by yours. But I was able to get access to HRT, fully covered by my insurance (side from a monthly $10 co-pay) before I ever got my diagnosis. Wanna know how? My doctor and my insurance company weren't transphobic. If you look at any sources that say that dysphoria is required to be trans, I think you'll find that all those sources are either outdated (from 2010 or earlier), or were written by cis people. Current research has proven that dysphoria is not required to be trans. And spreading the idea that being trans requires dysphoria bars questioning people from figuring themselves out, and keeps dysphoric trans people feom seeking transition because we worry about not being "trans enough." Please stop spreading transphobic ideas like this. It causes actual harm to ALL trans people, and gives cis people more reasons to gatekeep in the medical field, like what happened to you.

@@rileyrandall9612 Oh, don't worry! I just hope I didn't come off as rude or angry. I feel very strongly on thid topoc as well As for the differing brains thing...I have a degree in human psychology. The thing about men and women having differemt brains is actually false. There are differences in EVERY brain, and while some can generally be attributed to different genders, this has less to do with nature, and more to do with the environment (an example of this would be the way that emotions are processed. Men tend to show less of an emotional response if they were raised in a conservative family. Those raised in more open-minded families tended to have "female" emotional responses!) I can also say that, while the research you mentioned is indeed being studied currently, it's not for the reasons you were led to believe. These studies are being done as a way to legally deny healthcare to those whose bodies don't match the "gender" of their brain. This will lead to eugenics if it goes to far, and I am very against it

So, ouch. Reading all of these comments really fucking hurts. Hi, I'm Ryan. I am a transgender male. I use he/him pronouns. I don't have an unfortunate story, honestly. Most people accept me. My mother got me my first ever binder today. That was the first time I've felt genuine happiness in... a really long time. My dysphoria was killing me. I was super depressed, and then I got it. I got my binder. From my sweet, amazing, beautiful, supporting mother. My stepmother and father support me. My mother and stepmother are I think the only ones trying when it comes to names and pronouns, but it really helps. My grandmother accepts me more or less. She is extremely homophobic and transphobic. We once had an argument when she found out I was in the LGBTQ+ community. (She didn't know which part. I basically outed myself because they were being really homophobic and I snapped. So, yeah. That happened.) I just wanted to say that it will get better. I've heard that so many times. I've gotten pissed off at that statement *so many times.* But it does. When I got my hair cut, when I got my first binder, when I get my voice to go deeper naturally, when someone called me sir. That all made me really euphoric. I went from being super dysphoric and sobbing every hour literally yesterday to being really happy with myself and accepting myself. Thanks for listening to this. It really helps. Now here's some tips: 1. *_DO NOT_* bind with ace bandages. I'd heard this so many times, but I still wanted to do it. Please, don't. If you can, wear two sports bras. 2. Take off your binder at a maximum of eight hours! No matter what you're binding with, only do it for eight hours max! 3. Take a shower with the lights off. This one is for dysphoria. I did it today for the first time and I actually enjoyed my shower for the first time ever. 4. If your ribs are bruised, stop binding! Maybe not all together, but research what you're doing wrong! Because that could actually hurt you! And lastly, this is a message. If you're a trans man, know that you are a very valid, handsome man. If you're a trans woman, know that you are a very valid, beautiful woman. If you're non-binary, know that you are a very valid, attractive human being.

Hello y’all! Trans woman here! Dysphoria has been the bane of my existence everyday for over a week now and I’ve been considering suicide. Dysphoria has had my brain focusing on the cis female life I never had. My heart yearns for a life that I was robbed of. The line: “I don’t belong here. It’s just hopeless. Find me a way out if you love me… at all” made me cry. It made me into a human waterfall. Even though it hurt so so much. This song helped me get out of a suicidal rabbit hole I had dug myself into. I don’t know if I want to be here much longer. I just want to thank Cavetown for making this song. Thank you so so so much… thank you…
