Hello, my name is Zephyr. I am part of a system that had BIID/BID.
Had, because we now have the body that we desired. We identified as transamputee, as our BIID made us desire to have our legs amputated (the level of amputation differed between alters, but now that it's happened, we are all satisfied).
This is the happiest we have been in years. I mean, actual years. Almost a decade. We are finally moving towards having stable mental health, and moving toward reaching how we want to look. We feel GOOD for once. Good about ourselves and our body.
We also have collectively decided to transition towards appearing masculine and passing as male. Now that we have the body we want, our body is feeling more and more like... OUR body, yk? Like it really belongs to us. Like we have control. For once in our fucking life. It's amazing.
We went through years of abuse and neglect. We never had control over our life. We were always confused, we HATED looking in the mirror, we hated looking at our body. We hated being us.
We don't anymore. Transition has literally saved our life. I'm not kidding. I am one hundred percent certain that we wouldn't be here typing this today if we didn't transition to our transamuptee ID. I am also certain the same would be true if we weren't able to transition to our transgender ID.
Being transabled is beautiful. If you are transabled and wish to transition, I wish you good luck on your journey, and invite any transabled beings to send asks or dm us!
You deserve to feel like yourself; you deserve to be comfortable in your body; you deserve to love yourself. Your identities are valid. YOU are valid.
