    I read somewhere that negative events and words have 20 times the impact on our brain/emotions than positive events.

    So when shit happens to me I tell myself the people that did it are not that important. It’s hard and horrible tho.

    Big big hugs.

    We all know transphobes are sick incels and terfs

    I have no idea if they were terfs. I suspect that the intolerance was in part ethnicity based.

      There’s some truth in that. I’ve never forgotten certain things that has happened when I was bullied as a kid and it still stings and weighs me down.

      Positive events related to that subject haven’t stuck with me at all.
