Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Yep this is me and my bestie when blowing off stressors.

You guys have friends?

[–] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 6 points 2 hours ago

My friends and I all have autism and/or ADHD, and a slew of physical and mental health diagnoses. It can be like this sometimes, but we have lots of days that we're sharing silly or mundane things.

I think it's important to have people in your life that can validate your feelings when something stressful comes up, but that can also establish and maintain boundaries. We're not therapists, even if we have a ton of experience with therapy, ya know?

My best friend gets to rant about childcare issues and conservative school board insanity, then I get to rant about stupid conservative shit at work and my family being insane. It's good to vent to someone who's outside the direct problem so you don't lose your shit in front of the wrong people.

Yep! Sometimes the only way I stay quiet is by live streaming my thoughts to my mate

Errrmmm... kinda. Me and my friends are all diagnosed with various things but thankfully aren't all there at the same time

Not true for my friend group. They are funny, competent, and rational.

Not true at all. All my female friends are very down to earth. One of them did burst into tears the night before her wedding for seemingly no reason, but that's an emotional time and out of the ordinary for her. I'm probably the craziest one but I still think I'm very chill. It takes a lot to make me un-chill.
