Just a simple question to those of you suffering from depression, anxiety or are just going through a tough time. Now or sometime in the past.

Have you tried exercising, and did it help? What kind, and how did it make you feel?

    I used exercise to cope with overwhelming gender dysphoria before I was able to transition.

    It was incredibly helpful, and I got super fit, but it’s also easy to overdo it, and balancing that can be a challenge when you’re using it as a coping mechanism

      I’m sorry you had to go through the hard times, but I’m glad you found something that helped and were eventually able to get to where you needed to be. Congrats!
