#a trans comic by me
Hi! Yes! So! This is a very talky talky talky comic, so I’m sorry if you don’t like to read a lot of words, but I made this to sort of walk and talk myself through some thoughts and questions I’ve been having over my gender and sexuality. Making it actually did help me sort a few things out!
But yeah, the gist of this comic is that I’m a big blobby mess of gender and sexuality feelings, and I don’t feel like I fit nicely into one label, and that’s okay. Gender identity and sexuality are such diverse human experiences, it just makes sense that we don’t have a label for all the infinite combinations out there. I tried to force myself into nice, clean labels for a while, because it was easier than actually diving into my identity through a HUGE amount of self-reflection.
Now that I’m getting closer than ever to defining my identity, I get worried that it’s too complicated for people to understand, or that people might think I’m “cringey” or weird. But you know what? Humans are complicated. Humans are weird. If harmlessly trying to understand myself makes me cringey, well, then I sure am! And that’s fine by me!
And, well, if I’m able to help even just one person either with figuring out their identity, or accepting themself as they are, or even just bringing a smile to someone’s face as they read my comic, then that’s all I could ever ask for.
Yeah I got all talky talky talky in my caption too, huh? Oops. Well, it’s a complicated subject and I guess I have a lot to say.
And there’s a lot of thoughts about my identity I didn’t even cover in this comic so uh. Future comics?? Sure!
Okay! Have a great day, yall!!

An attempt to describe how my mental illness messes with my memory. Some memories that I used to be able to remember feel locked, like there is something blocking me from remembering. Others feel static-y and distorted and fuzzy. Mental illnesses like depression can really affect your memory, which can be frustrating and hard to deal with. Much love to others who also experience memory troubles <3
