This song does not belong to me, it belongs to the rightful owner(s) (Cavetown)

• To Hold Amber - Caveto...
Lyrics:
Don't let me see what I am
cause I can't stand it, no I cant
I'm coming back round again
It's been over a year, I thought this was the end
And now I don't remember comfort
because what I am is what I'm not
I don't belong here, it's just hopeless
Find me a way out if you love me at all
Don't let me hear what they say
cause I can't stand it everyday
I'm thinking that I should leave now
And I don't think I'm coming back this time
Cause now I dont remember comfort
because what I am is what I'm not
This phantom skin it's weird to live in
So find me a way out if you love me at all

You're welcome, you deserve it!!!
what a coincidence that i come back so soon after
congrats! on 3 mil views
:)
Congratulations :D
just wanna let y'all trans kids know i love you and will always support you no matter what 💕💕💕
Thanks! I really needed to hear that!
Thank you so much... those are the words I've wanted to hear, but knew I never would. This means the world to me.
🥺
Thank you!!
"What i am is what im not"
It hits too close
Same..
Same
You are valid be who you are
Oh yeah same and ive almost definitely fucked up my chances of top surgery with improper binding
@@jude297 I'm so sorry honey
yes I'm a trans guy, yes i like skirts, yes i like painting my nails. it really hurts when i see people calling cis guys "kings" when they do these things, but when i do people start calling me by my dead name again. it sucks.
You're strong and knowing who YOU are is the most important thing. Don't let anyone take it from you and above all, be yourself. It can be SO hard but I believe in you
Bro, youre an absolutle King. Here, youll need it: 👑
I know it is not fair at all
Don’t listen to them, you are an absolute KING! Here, take your crown back 👑
YOU ARE A KING!!!
I remember when I was 11 crying to this song wishing I could just be cis.
Now years later I am in the process of starting T. Please if you are a trans kid please know that it does get better and you are not disgusting you are perfect the way you are.
i'm 16 crying in the dark at midnight wishing i were a cis man. thank you for this validation, i really needed this today
what does cis mean? (srry if I sound rude..)
@@duckyy31 this isnt rude at all to be cis just means to identify with the gender you were assigned at birth🖤
@BennyBenny-td1ry i understand exactly what you are going through, i'm going through the same thing. you are valid and it has to get worse before it gets better. i am nowhere near that point of getting better but i've just learned that you have to believe in yourself. i will be your trans brother in solidarity. this world needs you man
I'm 11 and this will definitely help because I'm trans myself
Yeah I’m cis. Yeah I’m a male. Yeah I listen to Cavetown. If someone needs a supportive brother, I’m here for you whether you’re gay and your family doesn’t accept you, or you’re trans and have a supportive family, or bi and nobody believes you, I DONT CARE I WILL STILL LOVE AND SUPPORT YOU CAUSE YOURE VALID 👍🏻
we stan a supportive brother
Thanks Kiri!!
Thank you
Awww kirishima you really are best boi 💕
Q-Q
Here is some advice from a trans male:
when a transgender guy is on his period he tends to be really dysphoric. in that case, be as nice as possible if you wanna keep ur head
@kovuchii Heyyyy, if you cannot get a haircut you could always put your hair in a ponytail or a bun and wear a hat or a baseball cap to make it sorta look like you have shorter hair! I'm not sure about the binder situation though. You could always ask a friend to order online and have it shipped to their house or pick it up on the little amazon box things at stores. If they don't understand gender dysphoria then try explaining it to them or showing them a video on it. Sorry if i couldn't help very much. But good luck~~ Lots of love.
@kovuchii No problem!!
something that might maybe bring you some comfort, testosterone increases when someone is on their period, so think of periods as free testosterone
Also when you’re on your period you don’t have a lot of estrogen in your body so it helps with the mindset. I’m going on t in a month. Can’t wait 😊
i just started mine so this made me feel better
Sometimes I really wish I wasn’t like this, I wish I was cis, straight, girly, skinny and beautiful. I wish I was normal

A trans boy in an unaccepting house, transphobic friends, no binder and not allowed to cut my hair, I’m struggling, but Cavetown makes me feel the incredible need to be able to hug music
Hey, ur a valid boy
@@noname7187 hey. ik everything probably seems dark for you rn. im sorta in the same situation. i see you. i hear you. you matter. i hope you see this and know that one day, if you keep fighting someone will find you. you wont be alone like this forever. you have a future.
You got this! I’m in a super similar situation I hope everything works out for you, you’re valid!
@@Imtired879 Oh wow. This notif made me jump. 2 years ago, yikes. I’ve definitely changed a lot as a person. I have since gained an amazing friend that helps me keep going though! I’m sure things get will better for you, and you’re valid too man! Hope your situation gets better! Hang in there fella :]
@@deceptionvex I’m so happy everything worked out for you :)
My mom has reverted back to calling me by my dead name and calling me a girl because she thinks I'm just confused. And I really hurts because I know that who she thinks I am isn't me. I went from being accepted and looking like a guy to being called girl and being seen as one. I can't wait for the day I can leave this house and finally be myself, completely, 100% me.
Edit: I usually don’t do edits like this but so many people in the replies have been asking, and I don’t have time to reply to all of them. But for anyone wondering, I’m doing... fine now. I’m still not accepted by my family, I don’t think I’ll ever be. I did realize that she was right about one thing though, I’m not a boy. But I’m also not a girl. I’m non-binary, I’m just me.
I hope things get better for you soon my dude~
Hey im really sorry to hear that but just remember that you know who you are and that no-one can't take that away form you
Same
I hope you're doing okay my dude! If yo mom doesn't support you for who you are then we'll support you! ^ ^
@@yellowcoom1741 bruh ur ohshc name lmao
Bruh I’m so upset to hear Robbie was forced to come out because some asshole pointed out a post on purpose on tumblr where he used the T slur before he was popular and when he publicly talked about being trans and was just a teen. Some fucking asshole dug into his past and brought this to light and he had to come out in fear of being called transphobic. Forcing someone to come out is not okay and can make them extremely dysphoric and a violation of privacy. All around the situation is horrible, much love to CT we lysm.
I kind of always thought everyone already knew that he was, even before he came out. Like as FtM it just seemed obvious so I was very confused when all of this happened lol.
I started listening to cavetown when I was in sixth grade and I was surprised when I found out he wasn’t out at that time because I always kinda knew he was transgender
@@vflower3655 Yeah, I thought it was really obvious.
😂 ❤ yep 🩸
Remembering when my old toxic friend tried to get me to stop listening to cavetown because of the slur thing
This song hits me and I can relate to every word and I’m so so sorry for anyone who is struggling with dysphoria. (Edit: Dang, it’s been a year.. or two.. I can’t believe people actually liked my comment it was just when I started figuring myself out, well thanks for all the likes :) )
I'm wanting to die bc I have lots of gender dysphoria and I wanna tell my family but their gonna get mad at me and not accept me I'm ftm trans
Heylookmeghansgaming!!! i’ll be ur new dad i accept you child
I’ve told my parents they ignore it and pretend it just because I have autism which I don’t by the way! And they said I didn’t want to get dressed in the girls changing rooms because of sensory overloads which is just a lie getting changed in their was hell but not for that reason and even with out that getting changed is awful and my mum deliberately called me her daughter on social media where everyone can see and My parents are trying to take me away from my friends I just want to be cis so bad man it’s hell I would rather rip my skin of then keep living like this

0:20 “I’m coming back round again. It’s been over a year, I thought this was the end” hits hard man. I’m bad with words but for me this symbolizes both dysphoria and anxiety. Like finally breaking free of either feeling and then having it happen again after you thought you had finally gotten rid of it.
When you support everyone but yourself and fall deep into a depression and rethink you sexuality gender identity and stuff that's what the past 2-3 years of my life has been
I'm gonna support you too
Same...
Hey, I relate too much to this.......
Just know, after a bit you start to learn how to support yourself. After holding up people for a long time your start to apply what you learned from supporting others to supporting yourself.
It's hard at first, but it gets easier as the time goes by, and it's always a bonus when you get a friend or sibling or just someone who can also help you support you.
I feel that I realized that I liked guys when I was 12 and was sacred. Now I'm 16 and I'm pan and a trans girl and I accept it all. It's been such a journey.
The name: Dysphoric
Me: *clicks* ah yes

Literally what I did.

Nonbinary person here, this song literally saves my life and I’m really sad it’s not on spotify
hi! i'm non binary too! hope you're having a wonderful day!
Same here hon
Yay!! Fellow enbies!!! I was looking for y’all
i was looking for y’all! hello! i hope you’ve all been well :)
I also am non-binary! And same here.
This song hit so hard. I’m a closeted trans man living with my parents. I asked for a haircut before, but i got told that i would look too much like a boy. I feel so trapped here, but I’m terrified to tell my parents, because one of them is transphobic. Hearing songs like these, and seeing other trans ppls stories helps remind me that I’m not all alone.
man I’m not even trans or gender fluid but this song lowkey makes me cry. I have so many friends who’re apart of the lgbtq+ community and I love them so much- that was offtopic man but honestly, don’t listen to what anyone says. you’re valid. I love you. don’t lose hope or faith man. You’ve got this.
Ay thank you sm
I'm a boy but my parents refuse to accept it. My father just thinks I'm being bratty when I ask him to use my name and pronouns and acts like it's political and infringing on his free speech, and although my mom is a bit better she won't use them (even though I've explained how uncomfortable I am being called a girl). I hate meeting people because they always introduce me with my deadname, sometimes with a "she goes by..." or "she wants to be called..." and anybody who might've called me a boy will follow my parents' example and use she/her. Medically transitioning is completely out of the question until I'm at least 18 and I know my parents are going to hate me for it.
The concept of being comfortable and happy just seems so foreign. It feels like I'll never be able to have the life or the body I want. I know consciously that that's not true, I know I'll get there eventually, but it's so hard to convince myself of that sometimes.
im sorry my dude
things will get better. it may take years, but i PROMISE you, thing will get better. I wish you luck in your transition dude.
sending love, Mickey- fellow ftm
Nonbinary comrade here to tell you everything will get better. You’ll meet people who accept you for who you are and call you your proper pronouns. You’re valid, and deserve to be accepted. You’re a man, and you deserve better than you’ve got.
Ik i'm like a month later. But transguy here(and almost 22)--I use to feel the same exact way as you did, but things DO get better. It might take a while, or it might happen sooner, who knows--but at some point, things will start to look bright. It wasn't until last year I was able to start testosterone, and things have been much better!(Though my mom constantly tries to tell me I need therapy becuz it's a "big change i'm going through" and i'm depressed etc, but truth is, I haven't been this happy in a long while and if i'm depressed, it's cuz she's constantly putting me down :l She says she's supportive but she can get transphobic in arguments(in particular, especially bad ones. And she always goes too far in even minor arguments so I really don't know how supportive she actually is.) I'm sorry yours aren't and for your sake, I really hope they come around!
I told my mum and she was too ashamed of me to tell my dad
i want to cut my hair but my parents think its too "boy-ish" and that a girl shouldn't have short hair. but little do they know that im actually a boy Ah-Haha
Just go for feminine models with short hair, for the cut you want. It makes the haircut seem way more feminine, in the photo, until SHABAM I'm a guy
@The Nerdy Musician closet demiboy gang (☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞
when i had long hair i used to wear it i a pony tail or bun every day and night because i didn’t like to have my hair down. eventually i started getting really bad headaches to the point where i couldn’t even put my head on my pillow. so i told my mom this and how my curly hair was hard to manage and that it was starting to get hot she FINALLY (after 2 years) let me cut my hair. So then she told me to pick a style and it was one i didn’t really like to much but it was good enough. so i got the hair cut and i’m glad i was wearing a mask cause the entire time i was smiling SO MUCH. i ended up styling my hair differently like how i originally wanted it (miles mckenna hair) and now my hair looks like his and i feel successful. but anyway, when i told my mom i want the hair cut she said “you know people will think you’ll look like a lesbian, right” and i just said okay 😂. but fast forward to now, i LOVE my hair and my family will sometimes call me a boy as an insult but secretly it gives me so much confidence ✌️✨
-closeted trans non-binary person 🌈
Sleepy Bird I wanna grow out my hair but my parents think it’s too girlish. I don’t identify as a female either and I’ve told my mom that I don’t want to physically change my body to express myself. Even though she never says it out loud I think she finds it weirder that I want to be girly as a boy than girly as an actual girl
Maybe show them feminine folk with short hair & say you want look like them? That’ll possibly trick them into letting you cut your hair short! Idk just a possible idea!
the emotion in his voice is breathtaking.
His voice is just that good lol
I showed my bestfriend this song to maybe help her understand my dysphoria... she cried and I just feel really bad.. but it helped. Everyone I've shown this song to has backed off. They've stopped calling me things that really trigger my dysphoria.
Dysphoria is a curse, nothing else. It’s absolutely a horrible thing. Its obviously not the absolute worst thing a human can deal with but it’s definitely up on the list. Personally dysphoria just makes me constantly want to cry and hide myself from people when I’m in public. I often have to come home and just cry in my bathroom because of bad dysphoria days. To all my fellow trans people, I wish you all have an amazing day and that all your transitions go well!
That’s exactly how I feel and I hate it..
@pajamas don't give up. No matter how deep in a hole you are in, you can always get back up. There's people in your life who care for you. Even though I'm a stranger I really hope the best for you.❤️I myself too deal with dysphoria and I really am terrified of coming out to my family. How I cope with it is think that one day, even if I tell them and they don't love me, I can leave and live the life I want. And block them out completely. I can find someone to love and understand me. And I can finally be free. Hope this helps you.
I made a comment trying to explain dysphoria. It was pretty long, but I’m hoping it’ll help someone somewhere understand our pain, or maybe even their own. I basically talk about how it feels for me, and try to give the best possible understanding I can to anyone who can read three pages of babbling
Yeah it is absolute hell. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemies. I wish this all would just end, that I didnt have to be surrounded by people who call me by my dead name and by she/her pronouns. I have to sit and write thank you letters with my dead name on them. My chest hurts from binding so much, but I cant help but to keep it on because when I feel my chest I cant help but to hide in my room and cry.
On the bright side, I guess I get to start T when all of this Quarantine is over with.
Honestly I'm really lucky. My dysphoria isn't all that bad. It's just severe discomfort and at worst a feeling of my body not being mine. But it doesn't really make me cry. Not that bad anyway. It just kinda makes me feel hopeless. Mainly when ppl misgender me. Cuz it feels so impossible that I'll get treatment or be able to transition.
I literally just had the biggest dysphoria-induced breakdown day of my life. First, i had a panic attack because my grandma took my binder without telling me and even though i *tried* to push the panic attack back, it didnt work. Then, i had a bout of really bad voice dysphoria so bad i refused to talk. And now im sitting here, listening to this, hating my feminine body and crying because 4 years is a long time to wait until i can get out of my parents house and into a supportive environment...
Update: I'm almost 17. My parents are still unsupportive, but I'm out as trans and I'm much happier now. It does get better! There are people who love and support you. Keep going, don't close your eyes just before the flowers bloom.
I wish you the best luck to finally be able to be the one you truly are
I wish you luck! I'm honestly in the same position right now (I was born male so its different but same concept). Just know that you arent alone!💖 Much love from georgia
You're a boy. A handsome boy, a king, infact. I hope that things are a little better now. I'm sorry that I don't have any advice for you but I'm going throught the same thing except i haven't moved schools, I just have no friends. It will get better. And we will get binders and medically transition, even if it takes a long time. We will get what we want :)
Oh wait- i replied to the wrong comment... but this still applies you! Especially the first part
Three years now :)) keep going I believe in you !
Advice for trans boys: When you're on your period and getting cramps, pretend you're an assassin on a mission who just got stabbed in the abdomen by your target and can't tell anyone for the sake of your pride.

@@FallingAsh20 i actually love this
"it's been over a year" really gets me, especially right now, because around this time last year I realised I'm trans and I never thought that I'd be where I am today; short hair, boys clothes, out to some of my close friends and family. I know nobody is going to read this but if you are and you feel like you can't continue anymore, trust me it gets better, sure you might be unhappy and dysphoric, but it just takes time, that's what I told myself while i had long hair and I still tell myself that to this day, but don't give up because I believe in you and people love you
Thank you. I needed this- and you needed this, I'm sure. I'm sleeping now, so if you reply now I won't be able to reply back, but good luck, and good night.
@@yogurtofthemultiverse2200 I'm glad I could help you, good luck
Thank you. I came out to my family two weeks ago (I've known I'm trans for a while, but I was always to afraid to say), and my family said I was too young to know (I'm 16). I just can't help but thinking of going off to college and cutting all my hair off and getting a binder and buys myself boys clothes and coming back home as Alex, the son, grandson, brother. Sometimes it feels so close, but other days I can't even imagine it happening because I get so depressed about not being able to express myself that I don't want to get out of bed.
I'll hold on though, I'll make it out, the light at the end of the tunnel is gonna be my future self wearing the most repulsive ugly Hawaiian shirt with dress pants and a silver box chain dangling around my neck with a pair of hipster glasses frames opening my family's front door shouting "Hello, I'm back from college!" in the manliest voice possible.
I know that's blown out of proportion, but, hey, it makes me laugh and hope a bit more.
I hate that this song isn’t on Spotify :(
laptop tip! use a youtube link to mp3 and download the mp3 of the song, go to spotify and setting, show local files. From there, it should pop up! the only downsides are other people can't listen to it, only see that it is added to your playist and you can't play it on anything that isn't what you downloaded it on. hope this helps :D
@@pianopaeonia thank uu !!
@@pianopaeonia bro thankyou
same i looked it up but its not on it- :'(
there’s a version by mars on spotify
3 panic attacks in the same store. scars all over my body. all I write is "off" in my journal. I move and my arm touches my chest. I remember everything. It all floods to my brain, and out my eyes. I remember what my body is. I can feel the weight being in all the wrong places. it absolutely crushes me. anything I was thinking about is just pushed aside to remind me what I am. I can't look in the mirror without seeing someone that isn't me. all I see a girl that failed at being a girl. god even the word girl, she/her pronouns used on other people, makes me feel this way. nothing feels right, I hope this can all change someday.
it will change, stay strong, you can do it. and if you want it, im sending you a big virtual hug :,)
you can make it! I'm rooting for you
I've never heard someone put exactly how I feel to words before this
wait omg i just saw this got a lot of likes and comments HELLO??? ily all 🥺
Me too noone knows I hate being a girl
As a fem trans guy, you are completely valid ! you being masculine does not define you being a guy at all! You are amazing just the way you are, so go be the amazing femboy you are !
In my opinion dysphoria is one of the worst pains there is. And only a small portion of the people in the world have to experience it. Though it doesn’t hurt physically the amount of discomfort your mind is put through is horrible. My dysphoria doesn’t give me a break. Never. When I’m older I’m going on t, when I can afford it I’m having top surgery, and maybe even bottom, I hope so anyway..
:0
I can only explain dysphoria for me as painful. Like the panic and anxiety of being hurt and knowing you're hurt, but being nearly completely unable to find where the wound is- as if you'd tripped and fell and you know you're bleeding and you're scared that it'll get worse, but there's no wound, just that intense panic, and every time you hear your dead name or dead pronouns, it's like another shard of bone shoved into your skin, but you can't find the wound. It's misery.
I would actually challenge that since I'm fairly certain most people experience dysphoria in some form or another, certainly not the same dysphoria as you but no experience is felt the same way by anyone anyway. I don't identify as trans but I probably could, I just don't want to for a number of reasons, and having talked about this to a lot of people in a lot of situations I think transness is just an inherent part of being human in the society we live in. No one really knows what being a boy or a girl feels like, it's just that for trans people the word they were assigned doesn't fit their experiences with the world or themself in such a strong way that they have to pick a different one or they won't be able to function. The word they pick also depends on their experiences with themself and the world around them, as does the ways in which they change outwardly to fit that word. Basically it's just a whole tangled mess of perceptions and assumptions and labels and requirements set by your subconscious in response to the information it receives, and that's something most people understand, some more than others.
Izuku Midoriya Yes me too. Dw you’re not the only one 🖤
Trans folk here, well I can say as a FTM that youre right, I'm still 11, but i know that I'm trans and I'm experiencing dysphoria, it's fricking horrible, I see myself and I only can say: you still look like a girl
I hate it with all my heart
As a non binary person who has social anxiety who is scared to come out to my parents Cavetown has always calmed me down and he will ALWAYS have a soft spot in my heart
I'm not trans (mad respect and support for anyone who is. Dysphoria sounds like hell, and you're all so much stronger than I could ever dream of being) but, I'm currently having a massive identity crisis and I feel like the lyrics of this song kinda relate to that too even if that isn't what they were intended to be about exactly. I don't know. I just really love all of Robin's music lol
That's exactly how I feel. I don't know who I am.
@@mooncrater1286
I feel ya. We'll both figure it out eventually though, right? Keep your head up.
That’s totally valid! You can relate to music for any reason, even if it isn’t the original meaning of the song
I love this song because it fits in with a lot of other emotions people feel, even if it’s based on dysphoria. And yes, dysphoria is hell.
I hope you feel better soon
Saw this pop up in my recommended and thought I'd give this a listen for old times sake. And holy crap did I forget how utterly draining dysphoria is. So glad I got the meds I needed.
I hate being dysphoric so much
I wish i could just be the man i am inside, i wish i could express how i feel outside
Benjamin T idk if I dysphoric...but it feels like it. I want to be female..but I feel like I am binded by my gender currently
same honestly
I feel ya dude
I feel the same way
I'm sorry you all have to go through this as well, just know that a day will come where we all can become the people we /truely/ are, and this alone is proof that we arent alone in this ride
I just spent a hour crying im getting a binder delivered to a friends house and its 100% free i was crying to her over the phone "im finally gonna be flat"

I’m so happy for you dude! ❤️
Omg I’m so happy for you, I’m crying lol. No really. There’s tears running down my face..... maybe one day I’ll be in your position?
just remember your not gonna be completely flat, its designed to make your tibbys look like pecks. but for real Im happy for you!
@@jesushatsunemiku6165 I hope so!
I'm a trans guy, and the thing that makes me the most dysphoric isn't my height, chest, voice, or even how stupidly wide my hips are. It's cis boys.
I'm aware I'm feminine, and whenever I'm around masculine cis guys it makes me realize how much I don't act like an actual guy. I speak femininely, dress femininely, walk femininely, and occasionally paint my nails, and sometimes it makes me feel like I'm not trans enough. Like I'm not trying hard enough to pass.
A while ago, I went to the bathroom a minute or two before the bell rang, and it rang before I was able to finish up and leave. The bathroom almost instantly flooded with boys, and the moment I opened the stall door I just... froze. Froze, and panicked. When I finally managed to make myself go wash my hands and leave, I heard some guy in the hallway say to his friend, "There was just a girl in the boy's bathroom", and I practically ran to my bus, and almost started crying on the way home. It hurt, a lot.
tl;dr: feminine trans guys are still trans, please respect our pronouns :(
EDIT: wow thank you guys all for your support, since posting this I've started to identify as non-binary, using he/they(/possibly it?) pronouns and the last two times I've confused cis guys, instead of getting upset about it, I just laughed instead. Just a little while ago, some guy in the locker room said to his friend about me, "That's her. Er.. them. Er..... it." I'm aware he was trying to get under my skin, but I enjoyed it more than I really should have. :)
wow thats sad at least you have the courage to use the boys bathroom have any tips on how to now be extreamly scared to use the boys bathroom i just dont use the public bathroom cuz im to scared and thats not masculine
being feminine will never make you less of a boy, and remember there will always be somone who loves you and accepts you.
Feminine boys are still boys! You’re valid no matter what.
Femboys exist and their as much as a boy as the others
Your valid. Your 'trans enough'! It's ok to be feminine. Just be you! And I'll support you!
I used to cry to this song, not understanding why. I'm 21 now and 5 yrs on T lmao. It gets better
i'm not trans so i can't relate but i would give so much to take that pain off of your shoulders. to everyone reading this, i hope with my whole heart thaf you find happiness one day and that you keep going💕

i hope you have a good day/night, one day you're gonna get to become your true self

Good luck, im amazed at your bravery

Today i broke down on the floor crying and i don't know the reason.
I closed my eyes and the only thing i could see was myself, short hair, flat chest, smiling.
That's when i realized; i'm a boy.
I always related to this song and i didn't know why.
Especially "cause what i am is what i'm not"
I always felt weird and not like myself.
I'm so sorry.
Be who you want to be
Dude, that's sad, just remember to be _YOU_ and do what makes _YOU_ happy
Subscribe to pewdiepie And Not tgay I realized I was a boy when I started realizing in most of my dreams I was a dude. And Everytime I had imagined my future I literally wasn't there. Like I imagined some dog I would have but I just wasn't there. I couldn't see myself. Then I started seeing myself as a boy with an amazing husband and some adopted kid with a dog. I just wanna. Tim travel. Skip everything. And just get to that point. I don't wanna come out to my parents they're transphobic. My family is. I don't wanna wait til I get out of college to transition. I don't even wanna go through the process I just wish I was actually born a dude and not some ugly girl with a gross body.
@@bronk1022 Me too. My parents are against anything that isn't cisgender and straight. I cut my hair short without my parent's consent and they flipped out and got pissed.

As someone struggle with gender dysphoria (and also parents who don't even try to use proper pronouns smh), I can relate to this so much. It helps me when I'm feeling down and I'm so grateful for that.
It sucks to have unsupportive parents I hope they come around ❤️
rip man. unsupportive parents suck, but things will get better. you aren't alone.
I'm a tranfem. It's such a trap that we all live one time, but not even in our bodies.
Me: Nah I don't have gender dysphoria. I'm secure in my female existence.
Cavetown: I'm a dumb teen boy-
Me: Lol I relate.
Cavetown: *This Is Home*
Me: Lol me too.
Cavetown: *song legit called Dysphoric*
Me: Lol I feel that.
edit - ummm so it turns out that I'm trans in case anyone was curious-
this was originally about me being very deeply in denial because for some reason I was like 'haha yeah I want to b a boy still cis tho'
You don’t need Dysphoria to be trans. Don’t let ANYBODY tell you different :)

@@xxthat_weird_enbyxx2438 Dysphoria isnt hatered. Dysphoria is just incongruence.
I feel like a dude sometimes, I feel like a girl sometimes. I feel non-binary sometimes. sometimes I wish I was born a boy. I hate my feminine voice, I hate my feminine mannerisms. I hate my hips. But I still identify as a female sometimes. I like being a butch woman. I like being a feminine boy. I like being a confusing nonbinary pal. And thats ok, you matter, youre valid.
Edit: I am a trans boy. Thank you ❤️
have you heard of genderfluid?

I'm so happy you found yourself
Dysphoria is an awful thing, the depression and anxiety it brings on eats at your soul. Its awful feeling like a stranger in your own skin. 🌼 I feel for all the transwoman and men who have to experience this, I know how it feels. 💙🌼
(NON BINARY LOVE ASWELL !! didnt mean to leave you guys out 🖤)
I definitely can relate to this song
I relate to all this when I came out to my grandmother she said she looked up the symptoms of dysphoria and I have none of them I do I have anxiety and depressions thoughts (I don’t want to self diagnose myself) and it sucks cuz she always asks why I’m sad and I say I’m fine but I’m really not I hate my body and want to be a boy it’s painful going to school all I and many other trans children can do is go through it till we can get surgeries and such

“Don’t let me hear what they say. Because I can’t stand it everyday, I’m thinking that I should leave”
I relate to this so hard. Like if I don’t come out I hear them say “she” all the time and I’m slowly starting to not be able to handle it. If I do come out my town is so judgemental I can’t stand to listen, so maybe I should just go.
I understand how you feel but if we go we will never be able to transition in the future when we are able to move. I realize i'm making this comment like a year later, how are things now?
Crazy cookie i came out to my family and they still say she a lot but they call me Oliver now and they’re trying to understand. I don’t speak to my brothers anymore bc they’re bigots and I’ve been bullied a couple of times but my friends have been accepting. It’s rocky but it’s bearable. Thank you for asking I hope things get better for you too
Your town must be really crappy. I’ll provide my discord if u ever want to talk
I listened to this song repeatedly until I started testosterone, like it got me. Now I’m having the same pain waiting for top surgery after 3 years of comfort. This song hurts and gets me.
I'm actually kind of struggling with gender dysphoria..and this really helps in a way
It definitely helps to know your not the only one going through this struggle, it helps to know that your not the only one
stay strong fren, you got this. ||-//
"This phantom skin, it's weird to live in"
IDK why this song has not blown up it's so good and hits me hard, every time it just gets better and better. Cavetown is going to blow up on ne day, and I cant wait to say to all those people who douted him because he sung about sensitive topics not just love songs! That he has truly connected with his fans though music, and that's a hard thing to do.
I'm listening to this, relating to it in such a personal way. I got my hair cut short and bought my own binder because no one else will do it. I'm lucky, though. There are people who can't do any of that because of so many in their life who won't support them. To all of you out there who are in that situation, I want you to know that your feelings are valid and that despite the current situation, you will transition to the gender that you feel you are later in life. But until then, know that a random person on the internet is here to talk and is wishing you well on your transition.
"This phantom skin is weird to live in." That hit hard.
As a nb person with dysphoria it really helps 2 hear another trans person express their experiences, my dysphoria has gotten a lot better in the past few years!!! Its almost nonexistent for me now a days, but I still have moments. With any trans and nb person struggling with dysphoria it does get better with time once you start to love yourself!!! Its hard but I'm really proud of all you trans and nb people 💖
Is robin trans? i was wondering that but wiki had nothing to say about it.
Wow I'm in NB too! Maybe we know eachother
@@artemisdenstedt9612 He has never admitted it directly, althought it's possible seen some of the lyrics from his songs and some of his old pictures as a kid. Maybe he's not comfortable sharing this thing about himself, which is totally fine imo :)

Hey. I love you and I see you and you're gonna be ok.

This gives me an window into what some of my friends feel, and...now I feel an even greater sense of respect for them than I already do. I'm even more proud of them for living through dysphoria now.
Thank you so much for being a great ally for your friends you will never quite fully realize how much you mean to them as my friends mean to me. 💙

No, kid, but you’re pretty close!

Thanks, I needed that right now
thanks^^

I needed this
Thanks a ton. I needed this right now
I'm in a constant state of questioning, I see myself when I close my eyes, I see my hair shorter and my chest flat, I see what I want to be and I can't stand seeing myself anymore.
I'm always wondering if I really am trans, I don't know if I am or not and it scares the hell out of me, I know what I want tho, and what I want I'll never have.
Its so confusing, when I wear my binder it's never flat enough, so I stopped, I just deal with the sinking pain in my chest whenever I look in the mirror, I don't want to deal with it, it's hard and hurts most of the time. But I fear I'll always live in this body and always with this torment. I fear I'll never be accepted.
It gets better, it really does 💗
God damn you just summed up all my pain and crisis. You put into words. I know exactly what you mean my friend. I’m glad to know I’m not alone

dysphoria is the complete opposite of euphoria and it kinda scars me to know that.
I am asexual. I'm not trans. I'm even experiencing dysphoria. Not gender dysphoria, just dysphoria. I'm disgusted that sex without romance is acceptable but not romance without sex. To my trqnsgender folks, I'm proud of you. Keep your head up kings, queen, and nobles.
Edit: crap now I'm experiencing actual gender dysphoria. I think I want to go by he/them now but I'm not sure.
Second edit: I'm a transgender lesbian
were proud of you too. asexuality is great. we all need to come together to fight against discrimination and bullying, not divide each other.
i hope you find the acceptance you need soon.
Cool! Welcome to the T part of the lgbtq+ community!
lol
What a journey eh?
Are you an ace lesbian? either way I support you
this song hurts,
it hits just the right places
i remember saving this song in a playlist called "some things i like" about one or two years ago, i didn't know what dysphoria meant. i just liked the song and weirdly related. now i know what it was what pulled me into this song. it gives words to the weird feeling i get that i don't even know what it is because you know... i'm non binary, i don't really know what makes me dysphoric. i only know something with how i look and others see me doesn't allign with who i am or how i see myself. so thank you for this song
Hey, non-binary person here. My gender dysphoria is rarely ever missing from my life, especially at school. Sure, I can hide my chest, but I still have a girlish haircut, and my school won't let us wear hoods or hats, so I can't transition back and forth at school. Most of the kids in my class know I'm at least gay, but they don't get any of the rest of it, and it's really hard sometimes. I hope that one day, I will be met with acceptance and love. 🖤🖤🖤
I’m sure you will, you’re perfect the way you are don’t let anyone change that ❤️ you’re amazing!!

So, ouch. Reading all of these comments really fucking hurts. Hi, I'm Ryan. I am a transgender male. I use he/him pronouns. I don't have an unfortunate story, honestly. Most people accept me. My mother got me my first ever binder today. That was the first time I've felt genuine happiness in... a really long time. My dysphoria was killing me. I was super depressed, and then I got it. I got my binder. From my sweet, amazing, beautiful, supporting mother.
My stepmother and father support me. My mother and stepmother are I think the only ones trying when it comes to names and pronouns, but it really helps. My grandmother accepts me more or less. She is extremely homophobic and transphobic. We once had an argument when she found out I was in the LGBTQ+ community. (She didn't know which part. I basically outed myself because they were being really homophobic and I snapped. So, yeah. That happened.)
I just wanted to say that it will get better. I've heard that so many times. I've gotten pissed off at that statement *so many times.* But it does. When I got my hair cut, when I got my first binder, when I get my voice to go deeper naturally, when someone called me sir. That all made me really euphoric. I went from being super dysphoric and sobbing every hour literally yesterday to being really happy with myself and accepting myself.
Thanks for listening to this. It really helps. Now here's some tips:
1. *_DO NOT_* bind with ace bandages. I'd heard this so many times, but I still wanted to do it. Please, don't. If you can, wear two sports bras.
2. Take off your binder at a maximum of eight hours! No matter what you're binding with, only do it for eight hours max!
3. Take a shower with the lights off.
This one is for dysphoria. I did it today for the first time and I actually enjoyed my shower for the first time ever.
4. If your ribs are bruised, stop binding!
Maybe not all together, but research what you're doing wrong! Because that could actually hurt you!
And lastly, this is a message.
If you're a trans man, know that you are a very valid, handsome man.
If you're a trans woman, know that you are a very valid, beautiful woman.
If you're non-binary, know that you are a very valid, attractive human being.
My mom wasnt supportive atall. I'm 11 yearsold and she thinks its an phase despite me going through it for about 6 years now. I'm an transgirl and I honestly just hate my life rightnow. I'm happy for you though! I'm glad your mom was supportive. Best of luck from georgia 💖
bold of you to assume I’m human /hj /lh
hey, ryan, just wanted to say you are also a very valid, handsome man
thanks, i needed a lot of this advice
cheers from a transmasc rat
The message at the end was really helpful and I really needed it today, so thank you so much

"and I don't think I'm coming back this time"
man that hits hard rn.
My dad just walked in and asked if everything was okay. I'm in bed, listening to this on repeat. I had to nod, because I felt so happy listening to this song. He walked out, and I realized I'd messed up.
I’m cis but part of the LGBT community and have trans friends. Dysphoria seems like shit to say the least I can’t imagine having to go through that. The community loves all of you 💕 stick around and become the guy or girl you dreamed of. Just remember every day you’re closer to starting T or going on oestrogen. One day closer to getting your surgeries. One day closer to a waiter at a restaurant asking you “what can I get you miss” or “what can I get you sir?” You’re one day closer becoming who you really are. The whole community is with you and we love and support you. 💕💖❤️

This is so sweet, it makes me so happy
to all my nb/trans friends in the comments:
i am sitting here, after two years, wearing my binder and listening to a song thats helped me so much. having a binder doesnt erase all my dysphoria about being afab. i still want top surgery even if im far from it (cause im a minor) and im not allowed to wear masc/androgyne clothes. but you are getting closer to being who you really are every day. even if you dont know it. you'll transition. youll look back at years before and be amazed at all the progress youve made.
having a binder is just one of the first steps. its small but it can sure make you feel on top of the world at times. so even if becoming who you are seems distant, hold on. please. people love you, and if you wanna see the times where you can look in the mirror with happiness, you should stay.
i dont know who you are, but i hope this was reassuring in some way. i love you, take care friend 💖
You could maybe try buying some masculine or androgynous clothes, say it’s for a friends bday. Then if you’re not allowed to wear it, put it in a backpack and change when you get to school/ anywhere really - good luck
i told my mom my preferred name and pronouns a few days ago. she told me she wouldn't use them for a few reasons. (my dad didn't know about me questioning yet, etc.) but that night while i was cleaning the kitchen she called me echo, my preferred name. i almost cried. i don't think she even realizes how much that means to me.
she also told me we would work on getting a binder and cutting my hair a bit shorter (my hair is shoulder length right now because when i got my haircut all of the hints i gave her that i wanted a more masculine hairstyle just flew over her head, so she told me to not get one that went over shoulder length)
i'm scared of what my dad would think though. he's not a bad person, but i've learned to never go to him about my mental health.
I feel like I'm not trans enough sometimes because everyone says being trans means dysphoria 24/7 , but when I do have those horrid dysphoric breakdowns I always end up coming back to this one song in particular
Gay Artist hey, I feel the same way. You’re just as valid as anyone else, even if you don’t experience dysphoria all the time. You /are/ trans enough. You /are/ valid. I’ve struggled and am still struggling with accepting myself for who I am, and that doesn’t make you invalid either. I recommend watching Jackson Bird’s newest video, it’s on doubt. Please don’t forget that you /are/ trans enough.
also, pro tip for people playing this on ukulele. the plucking pattern is goes like this:
(the number is the number of the string)
3,2, and then 1 and four at the same time.
you play this plucking pattern for most of the song. when i was looking for tutorials on how to play this, they all said to strum it but you can clearly hear some picking and i figured out the plucking pattern and as far as i know, im the only one that knows it. you can google the chords and stuff but that pattern is really fun to do and if you're trying to get better at fingerpicking, it's perfect because it's so simple but sounds so cool.
comicpab thank you ;)
I see why he wouldn’t perform this live, it’s full of some really painful ideals.
For everyone in the comments saying they're not trans but can relate. Dysphoria is something anyone can go through and comes in many forms. It's to be so insecure and not feel connected to a part of you. I'm a cis female and don't care about my gender but I have facial dysphoria. The most commonly known form of dysphoria is gender dysphoria. Those of you going through this are so brave! Everyone here is :)
"Find me a way out if you love me at all" is a line that hits particularly hard. I'm worried my grandmother (current legal guardian) won't buy me a binder because she doesn't understand the severity of my dysphoria, and that the rest of my support system will respond accordingly. I have one picked out, but I'm worried that she won't want to spend 40+ dollars because it's 'not important', even though it's expensive because it's safer than the cheep ones. I don't know if she'll respond like that, but the fear is there. I'm asking her today. Fingers crossed!
EDIT: She said yes! It's coming in the mail!
Harper Black CONGRATS!
I want anyone else who's ever in this situation to know this: If you're family won't buy you a binder, ask them to go sports bra shopping. And pick out one that's about 2 sizes smaller then you'd normally need. At least to start with, it really helps to feel more comfortable.
I might show this to my parents to help them understand why I need to transition. To all the other transgender people here, I'd just like you to know that everything will work out eventually, and you are a strong person.
SweetKicksBruv i hope things went well!

as a trans guy who’s been out for over 3 years now, just wanted to let you all know that you’re all so strong, you’re so brave and I truly am sorry that anyone has to go through this. You absolutely will make it through this night. I wish you the best of luck and for those of you living with toxic households, i hope and pray for your safety and that one day you’ll be able to express who you really are. I love you, stay safe.
for a year I have felt this way. plus many more things. then the word dysphoria just like came to my head. never heard of it. decided to not worry abt it. for three months I wanted to know wtf what wrong with me, i was scared and so confused to the point I cried everyday. so I looked up dysphoria and it gave the definition and I was like "hey,,,that's kinda what I have!" and I love cavetown so much and I figured he made a song about it (again like never even knew what It was it was a word in my head and I never heard it from cavetown either I just like knew) and this popped up. the first sentence I broke down, like I'm not alone. I can get help now I know what's wrong. this hit too close.
"What I am is what I'm not." hit, it hit really hard.
I hate myself because I am a teen trans Male, but my family is very religious so I have to wait a couple years (around 6 or more because I would have to get enough money for an apartment so they cant kick me out) to come out and start T and everything which is scary and sad, which makes me depressed and I am trying to make the most of my family just in case. 😢😔
Stay strong. Maybe I'm not allowed to say this as I have not experienced it yet, but I've heard it gets better.
@@pigeonpower42 Thanks. I am trying to make life positive but as the days go by my dysphoria and depression are getting worse.
It sucks, im sorry you have to go through this, and i wont say it gets better because who knows if it really does?

@@jordanhughes9403 Thanks. I am currently saving up for an apartment or house so I can move out as soon as possible so I can come out and transition.
It does get better. My boyfriend's living proof. He even has a happy trail! Just keep those friends who make you feel better, do what you can to ignore those who don't, and, when a relationship comes up, never settle for someone who doesn't make you feel like the man you truly are.
I imagine myself, listening to this song while sipping tea, playing with my new hair, a cute succulent on my desk, my box of e pills near me, finally feeling happy while looking at the mirror, even though I know I'll never be "perfect", but at least I'll finally be myself.
I just started my period early
I was prepared to have another two weeks or so of some form of comfort in my body now that I’ve got my binder, but instead I get this.
I shouldn’t be complaining because it’s always light and short but if I talk about it irl with my genderqueer friends, they’ll try to understand but won’t. And I love them but I hate this. Sorry

Aiden Weasley Dude good luck. That really sucks. It’ll pass though, don’t worry.
Just remember you know more about girls struggles then most other boys, and personally I find that absolutely cute. How many boys have to deal with periods, I’ll tell ya not many. So in my opinion I think you’re a lot stronger and I hope whoever likes you (unless you’re ace) will make you feel special and strong
Wearing_my_paper_crown i think this is the sweetest comment i’ve ever read!! ❤️❤️❤️

Brain: now change your name and pronouns
Me: okay what's the deal with this
Brain: 👁👄👁

Brain: but you'd be happier as a guy correct?
Me: yes
Brain: exactly now change them
Me: Why?
Brain: you're transgender
Me: okay I'll change them
Brain: oh and you'll never experience sexual attraction
Me: ARE YOU F-
so your a transgender asexual- cool! question tho whats it like to be asexual?
@@daniellehall2765 it's pretty normal the only difference is no sexual attraction like someone else might want to "do the deed" But I wouldn't because I can't experience attraction in that way if you get what I mean
@@kissxingqiu oh thanks lol I think I understand it a little better now
@@daniellehall2765 no problem :)
Oh you’re ace! There’s no polite way to ask this, but do ace people still do *coughing* _themselves?_
I doubt anyone will see this but.. dysphoria is quickly killing me. I can't keep doing this every single day thinking that I'll never be happy, never be a real man, never be seen how i want and need to be seen. Im suffering. Everything hurts so bad. I don't want to keep living like this but what can I possibly do? I dont believe my girlfriend sees me as a guy (she says she does and tries to make me believe but my paranoia is so bad that I just cant) i keep wanting to force myself to be a cis girl because that would be better than this horrible dysphoria every single day I.. I just want it to stop. I want to re set. I want to be born correctly.
Ooo... I feel that. I'm genderfluid (closeted), but I always felt more masculine. (even tho I'm biologically a girl~ yay~) Lately I've been thinking those thoughts to... It's be so much better if I was just born a boy. Why couldn't I have been born a boy?! Or, stop being a nuisance, suck it up, you're just a girl.
I'm not that great with this stuff, but you're not alone. I hope you feel better.
Eventually. That's the strongest word for me and it's really all I cling to because I know eventually I can escape, eventually I can be myself, eventually I might not have to live in fear. I'm non-binary and being so makes me not very comfortable either way. Just repeat the word eventually. Eventually you can fully transition and be yourself. We're all rooting for you!
I wish I had better words to say, I just really hope that you're staying strong
I know I'm late to comment on this, but I hope the original commenter sees this. Gender dysphoria is a horrible thing to experience, but if you feel like you look to feminine for your liking, try shaving your hair or start wearing binders. You might feel a bit more comfortable with your body. Also, if you're okay with it, try showering with the lights off. I hope things get better for you.
I don't belong here, it's just hopeless
The world is yours. You belong here, creat things that make you happy. This is not hopeless, please look to the sky and know that, this pain, it has purpose. Please look at the world around you and see all the life and beauty, i know how hard it is to see the light. That its scary and blinding but its warm it will melt away the ice from your body. You're going to feel free and like you can walk on air. Please stay and see all that is lovely. Its waiting for you. You will find it, you're gonna see the light. I care about you. (If you want you can DM me on insta if that helps my user is @plesant.alien Im willing to talk with you or just send you pictures of animals or memes). :) I care.
Okay, I know these are just the lyrics to the song, but just know that you do belong here. You do matter, and you do have worth.
"if the universe didn't need you, you wouldn't be here"
you belong. you have a gift. A talent. as @ sophie jones said " if the world didn't need you, you wouldn't be here" better days will come my friend

It hurts knowing that they’ll never understand what’s happening to me at all.
“this phantom skin”
That line just hit so close to home. Since i hit puberty i felt like my body wasn’t my own. Like it felt like I was out of my skin. I figured out i was nb over the summer and everything just made sense after that. I am working on making this skin my own again. But its hard when transphobia is around where i live. My family often time makes fun of lgbtq+ people. And everytime they do it’s another pang of dysphoria. And they expect me to be this perfect girl. My mom treated me like her doll to dress up for the longest time. It just recently stopped like a year ago. I am not out to many people. But i know if I come out to them im gonna be thrown out of the house. So the plan is to tell them when I am on my own. Its so many years until then, but i gotta do it for my safety. It sucks that who I am can get me thrown out of the house. but thats life
Same
You know it's his natural voice when you hear the commotion of a household at the end. Beautiful songs, this man does.
For some reason I feel fake. I question if I'm really trans
I think we've all felt that way before. Just know that you are who you are, and nobody knows you better than you know yourself. You may be trans, you may not be. Just do whatever feels right to you. If anybody has a problem with it, they don't deserve to know you. And you deserve better than them.
The fact that you're worried about this tells me that it means a lot to you. I don't think any "fakers" would question themselves on whether or not they're fake.
I know you'll figure yourself out. Some people take time in doing so, and if that ends up being you, that's okay. Whether you're trans or not, fluid or static, binary or otherwise, that's okay. Just stay strong. There's no rush. Do what makes you happy, and strive to become the person you want to be.
I'm rooting for you!
@@rileyrandall9612 This is a SUPER unhealthy mindset to have actually
It's normal to question yourself. I do sometimes, too
But for one thing, you don't actually need dysphoria to be trans. Dysphoria is defined as distress related to your birth sex, and you don't need to feel that way in order to be trans
Also, whether you transition or not is up to you, whether you're dysphoric or not. Do what feels right to YOU. Just be aware of any changes that can occur, and if you don't want those changes, perhaps you can find other options
And don't worry about "embarrassing" anyone. Every trans person has different experiences. If any trans person is embarrassed of you based on how you present, what your gender is, or whether or not you choose to transition, they have some internal transphobia they need to sort through
Do what feels right to YOU. Don't worry what anyone else says or thinks
Whether you're cis, trans, or nonbinary, you'll find what makes you happiest. And that's the road you should take. Don't let anyone scare you away from your options
@@rileyrandall9612 That...is very innacurate.
I myself have very severe dysphoria, both by the actual definition AND by yours. But I was able to get access to HRT, fully covered by my insurance (side from a monthly $10 co-pay) before I ever got my diagnosis.
Wanna know how?
My doctor and my insurance company weren't transphobic.
If you look at any sources that say that dysphoria is required to be trans, I think you'll find that all those sources are either outdated (from 2010 or earlier), or were written by cis people. Current research has proven that dysphoria is not required to be trans.
And spreading the idea that being trans requires dysphoria bars questioning people from figuring themselves out, and keeps dysphoric trans people feom seeking transition because we worry about not being "trans enough."
Please stop spreading transphobic ideas like this. It causes actual harm to ALL trans people, and gives cis people more reasons to gatekeep in the medical field, like what happened to you.
@@rileyrandall9612 I don't mean to come off as rude, and I'm sorry if I came off that way
You have a great day as well!
But, in the future, maybe stop spreading the idea that anyone can dictate whether or not somebody else is trans, at least on other peoples' comments. If you make your own priginal comment it's fine, but you shouldn't spread false information (whether they are your beliefs or not. Not every trans person feels the same, and it can be hurtful)
@@rileyrandall9612 Oh, don't worry! I just hope I didn't come off as rude or angry. I feel very strongly on thid topoc as well
As for the differing brains thing...I have a degree in human psychology. The thing about men and women having differemt brains is actually false. There are differences in EVERY brain, and while some can generally be attributed to different genders, this has less to do with nature, and more to do with the environment (an example of this would be the way that emotions are processed. Men tend to show less of an emotional response if they were raised in a conservative family. Those raised in more open-minded families tended to have "female" emotional responses!)
I can also say that, while the research you mentioned is indeed being studied currently, it's not for the reasons you were led to believe. These studies are being done as a way to legally deny healthcare to those whose bodies don't match the "gender" of their brain. This will lead to eugenics if it goes to far, and I am very against it
