Whether this concept applies to or any other activity in your life... Don't let stopping something stir up shame and guilt about "failure". You have every right to change your mind about whether you want to do something or to pause something and return to it later.

Challenge: try a or activity that you previously "quit" and turn it into a pause - pick it up for just 1 day. You can pause again after that day if you want, maybe you'll find you enjoyed the experience or the benefits so much you pick it up for longer. Both are great!

We’re quick to label ourselves as quitting when something stops.

Therapy makes an important distinction:
Pausing can be protective.
Pausing can be intentional.
Pausing can be what keeps you from burning out completely.

You didn’t give up.
You gave yourself space.

Save this for the moments you feel tempted to judge your pace.

Today for we want to bring your attention to research that YOU can participate in to further the understanding and available treatments (medical and psychological) available for transgender and gender non-conforming people.

Check out and participate in a study recruiting folks that self identify as male or female for research about comfort in disclosing identity, self perception, and su***de. The study is open to anyone trans over age 18, in the US.

Gender dysphoria can be crippling, and for many su***de feels like the only option to make the pain stop. Luckily it's not the only option for now because for many Americans, we still have access to gender-affirming health care supporting gender transition. If you or someone you know is transgender and struggling with the pain of dysphoria, social and body focused, you're not alone. There are resources available to help you through this moment and many more.

Start with the Trans lifeline (877-565-8860), then call or chat with The Trevor Hotline (www.thetrevorproject.org).

When you're ready to begin your transition, the Campaign for Southern Equality has carefully selected great referrals to healthcare and legal providers as well as compiled resources to assist with funding medical transition. See: https://southernequality.org/resources/transinthesouth/

If you ever need a therapist to provide a letter of support to access gender affirming medical care in your transition, find someone who has signed the GALAP pledge: https://www.thegalap.org/need-a-letter/directory

The good news is, transgender people (and their allies) can help protect themselves from the stressors of discrimination, violence, and systemic oppression through building strong resilience. The Trans Resilience & Health in Sociopolitical Contexts Study was able to identify 3 major contributors to resilience for their study participants:
1. Connection with people and/or animals in ways that provide comfort
2.Distraction/Immersion in nature, TV/film, games and/or books.
3. Self-Care because it improves physical and mental well being.

We also know from research studies looking at resilience in transgender youth, identity affirming community is a significant protective factor against suicidal ideality.

Today I am getting tea with some of my gender-affirming therapist friends because hanging with them is a major boost for my emotional well being.

Another example of political events in 2025 that lead to transgender people fearing for their lives, physically and especially emotionally.
On Thursday November 6, 2025 the US Supreme Court let Trump block transgender Americans from choosing passport s*x markers.
The liberal judges know what the effect will be: Passports listing only a gender at birth make transgender people vulnerable to "increased violence, harassment, and discrimination."

In my 11.5 years as a counselor, general public awareness of people has increased exponentially for better and for worse. Many of our clients feel fearful of political decisions happening in the past 2 years because states and local governments are introducing and passing bills restricting transgender athletes and minors from medical care and activities cisgender folks are welcome to access. Pew research has found 66% of Americans surveyed favor laws that restrict transgender athletes to play on teams that align with their s*x assigned at birth and 56% of Americans surveyed favor laws that ban medical professionals from providing care related to gender-affirming transition for minors. Knowing that more people understand transgender exists and hold the opinion that they shouldn't have the same access to important aspects of life and happiness makes transgender and people more fearful of their fellow Americans.
