*hugs*
i read up on the posts and i dont have a lot of advice.
What i do have is this. Some ways to help stop sh is like, hide your knifes, like give them to a trusted friend or put them somewhere youll forget, when i struggled i put them behind a bunch of towels in the top of a closet.
If you have urges try to distract yourself, talk to someone, watch a show, play a game and occupy your hands. Writing is a good way to do that.
Another thing is after, if you do relapse i suggest having bandaids in your room so you can put them on without others knowing and then wear long sleeves. *hugs*
also just talking to people abt it helps so they can help you.
Anyways we love you usseewa!!

Ral-Na - one of the kings of the Reshi Isles, introduced on WoR and verified Trans in Dawnshard Ch 3:
Lopen took the hand.
“Before you take me down,” Talik said, “I have a . . . somewhat delicate question for you. Our king, who is one of my parents, has undergone some unusual physical changes lately. They have transformed him in dramatic ways, and at first we thought it was a gift of our god, as he was not born looking as he does now. We now realize this transformation is in relation to a spren he has been seeing. It is why he agreed to make this long trip.”
“Your king is Radiant!” Lopen said. “What kind?”
“He can make the very air seem to catch flame,” Talik said. “And sees a spren that burns through the inside of objects in curious treelike patterns.”
“Dustbringer,” Lopen said. “We’ve been hoping to find some more. Look, this is great. But don’t talk to the ones we already have, all right? It’s complicated, but we’d love to see you figure your own way, without anyone interfering.”
“I do not understand.”
“I don’t really either,” Lopen said. “Have your king talk to Dalinar about it, all right? But don’t tell anyone else. It’s politics. The annoying kind.”
“There’s another kind?”
Lopen grinned. “I like you, velo.”

Hope that helps

QUEEERS *in a booming voice*
i have a request,
im looking for trans masc representation in media (preferably not romance stories) because i cant find any and its pissing me off. Most transmasc are either just hc’d or like background characters. Thanks

I would like to see how brandon handles writing a definitively trans character
Yesss, i know Brandon has expressed like worry in writing them as he doesnt wanna be offensive or anything, which makes sense and is lowkey super sweet cause its fairly easy to write a bad character.

There are some really interesting WoBs building on this idea, and inspired by the fact that singers can basically change their form at will. Sanderson has also said a few times that he wants to include more queer characters, he just wants to make sure he does it right.
Im actually so excited to see more of them.
28 minutes ago, PanLin said:You can find them all with this search query: https://wob.coppermind.net/adv_search/?query=transgender (I'm conscious we're in the Stormlight forum, so just be careful of spoilers if you haven't read the other Cosmere books!). The first WoB below is spoiler-free if you're up to date on Stormlight:
R'Shara
Would Stormlight healing, Progression, or Feruchemical gold healing count as some of the ways that a transgender person could change their body to match their identity?
Brandon Sanderson
Yes. Those would work. In fact, that's kind of the main way that you would make that happen. Injections of Investiture making the body match the Spiritual and Cognitive.
Minor spoilers for Warbreaker:
Kogiopsis
Since Returned come back as kind of an idealized form of themselves, if somebody was transgender in their original life would they Return as the sex they had been assigned the first time or the gender they identified as?
Brandon Sanderson
I would think that a transgendered person could definitely come back as how they identify. Perception is very important in these sorts of things. It would really depend on the person, but yes.
Minor spoilers for Mistborn:
Questioner
How come you don't have any gay, lesbian, or transgender characters in your books?
Brandon Sanderson
I do! This one [Shadows of Self] actually has one. Ranette is lesbian. Let's see, transgender is awkward because I have the kandra who are kind of no-gender and both, that doesn't really count, but it's kind of me testing the waters and seeing whether I can write someone who has fluid gender and not be offensive with it, does that make sense? So keep an eye on what I do with the kandra through the books. The other gay person is Drehy from Bridge 4, he's based on my good friend Ryan Dreher who is gay, and so you will see his husband appear in the series eventually as well, but we really haven't talked about that one yet, there really hasn't been an opportunity, but Ranette we've talked about and it becomes more and more obvious as we talk about it in the books.
Krios (paraphrased)
If you have a form of manipulating your Identity and a form of healing, are you able to shapeshift or even evolve your body like growing wings?
Brandon Sanderson (paraphrased)
You'd have to do some real work on your Spiritweb to make that work. It'd take more work than you're implying, but the [singers] for instance are doing this. It'll take a little more work, it's not just blanking your Identity. Hemalurgy would make it very easy, but also very evil. But what you want to achieve is possible.
Which is all to say that various applications of Investiture seem to hint that we might see a rise in transhumanism and other forms of radical self-expression in the future of the Cosmere, let alone just gender non-conformity.
LETS OGOOOO

Guys its settled instead of getting surgery ill just become a knight radiant, much cheaper.

1 minute ago, PanLin said:
yep! I mean, that conversation you're quoting is in itself canonical evidence that the Sibling is non-binary. Gender is a purely social construct, and the Sibling clearly doesn't feel like they're either male or female, hence: non-binary / agender.
Technically, all parshendi are non-binary because their society recognises 4 genders, so an agender parshendi would technically be non-quarternary instead (but agender is probably cleaner).
Yay!!
i love seeing the rep in all these books. From depression to gay (though I haven’t reached Renarins part yet.) and I’m pretty sure I read about a trans coded character before but I don’t remember who.0 -
okay so im reading WaT and in chapter 23 rushu is talking to sibling and says that sibling is neither male nor female. And i find this entire conversation (though it’s only a few words) to be fascinating because… is he canonically nonbinary? Or agender? I think agender would fit better but like… does anyone have any WoB about this?

Ah. Hail to the almighty creator.
Ik ik it’s rare for me to grace you with my presence, it’s been ages since i was chronically online.
3 hours ago, Rynturning_Light said:All good with the rambling.
I know logically that I should be doing those things, but every time I try to brush things off or not compare myself I fail spectacularly and send myself spiraling. There are a lot of reasons for why that happens, and I even know where those stem from (various moments from my childhood, shocking, I know)
But like, I'm the one everyone comes to for their problems. I'm the mature one who knows how to help or deal with their issues. I should be able to deal with my own stuff. I just can't, not anymore at least. The bottles I kept everything is are breaking, and now my mind is just a cocktail of anxiety and anger and sadness, which all cancel each other out into depression
But yeah, I do have a medical inclination to this. Like I mentioned, my mother has some form of an anxiety disorder. My brother has anxiety too, I just don't know if it's a disorder. It's passed to me now and I'm scared to find out how deep is goes.
Thanks
I want the people close to me to call me on it. Just, one of my first coping mechanisms is deflection and anger. I argue when people try and pry open my issues. And when I don't I pull back and avoid the conversation. It gets worse when they won't let me retreat. I get more angry and then start yelling at people.
Though, that can usually be avoided if I'm really close to the person. I think I've just convinced those closest to me not to pry, when that's really the one thing that I kinda need
I just, I don't want to reach out first. That's my first obstacle, and it's one that I really struggle to bypass.
Yeah *hugs* it’ll take some time but I belief in you

I have long been intimidated by this thread, as I am pretty sure many of the people here hate me, and felt out of place within all of the chaos going on here
But I really, truly, am not okay.

i can assure you we dont hate you. At least not most of us!

uhhhh
kinda the people
who i kinda thought hated me from other places
but now i realize don't really?
also i am very socially nervous so that too
Thanks
That makes a lot of sense, thanks
Well I guess sometimes I'll interact with people and think they might hate me but i guess I was reading a bit too much into that.
Thanks guys *hugs*
Well basically I haven't been doing so good
I have a phone addiction and I think its been getting a lot worse
Im pretty sure I was depressed and almost certain i hate/hated myself
because I wasn't doing my schoolwork sometimes
And it doesn't help that I am taking 2 AP classes with AP Test season coming up soon
And so I would get overwhelmed with how much stuff I had to do
And I would end up reading webtoons on my phone from getting home from school to dinner
And whenever I spent time on my phone instead of doing schoolwork, i would beat myself up about it, but that still wouldn't be enough to get me to do my schoolwork.
And my friends aren't that great with emotions or communication, but I would have fun playing minecraft with them
But I couldn't even do that because I was feeling to guilty about my school work
And I only really recently recognized this
And I didn't really have anyone to turn to
And I don't know how to study
And I also can't delete webtoon because there are a bunch of webtoons I am genuinely dedicated to seeing how they end and I wouldn't want to permanently cut myself off from the books
But how do I know if that's just the addiction speaking and it also seems super logical and I don't really know anymore
*hugs again* i see, social anxiety is a slontze so dw.
as for the addiction i get that. *hugs* i dont have much to say but please just know you can talk to me whenever!
13 hours ago, Rynturning_Light said:Something that's been on my mind recently
Spoiler for length (kinda)
I find it concerning how easily I lie about my wellbeing. I say I’m okay and people believe it when I know that I’m as far from okay as I could be. I guess that’s what comes from masking anxiety for years and, more recently, depression. But I’m really good at those lies. For basically my entire conscious life I’ve been masking my anxiety. It was only until recently when the mental dam broke and things started slipping that my parents told me “we think your anxiety is a lot worse than we previously thought.” Anxiety runs in my family. It’s run from my mother to my brother and now I’m the next unstable rung on the ladder.
Ironically, it's hit me the hardest when it was previously assumed I was one of the "put together" members of the family
Anyway, it’s not like I try to lie. It’s just natural. I handle things on my own, it’s how I’ve always done things. So, people ask and immediately it’s “I’m okay,” followed by a string of relevant excuses to explain away my depressed state or self-sabotaging behaviors.
One of my more common excuses was simply “I’m tired.” My parents have realized that most of the time that’s not true, and when they challenged me on it I found new excuses for it. Excuses that sound like they could be the core issue, or could be what’s really bothering me. Most of the time they’re things with easy fixes. I think I do that to give all of us hope that I’m actually okay.
Sometimes I don’t even realize I did it. I think I’m being honest and then a little later I realize what I had told people was a complete and utter lie. I’ve done this more times than I’d like to admit. Most of the people close to me think I’m okay. The ones who are clued in somewhat think it’s only my anxiety and general worry.
Honestly, I don’t think I’m gonna stop. At least, not soon. It would take too much effort, and my mental health and healing is already shaky at best. I just, I don’t know, want people to know? I’m not okay, I haven’t been for a while. All the explanations I come up with don’t fix that, nor do the promises that I’m trying, ‘cause a lot of the time, I’m not.
*hugs*
i feel like im fine or im just tired are the base human response for most people. its kinda fascinating why and how but thats a bunch of psychology and theories so i will spare you the explanation. but *hugs* i think its good to have people who know to ask a bit farther then that. i used to say that all the time and my friends learned that if they know know something’s wrong the more they ask the more likely i am to open up. so i think its good people can see past that, it’ll take a bit of time to actually get used to it biut *hugs*

The Scribe looked at Salt, raising an eyebrow. “Hello. I’m supposed to be dead, so try not to talk to me tooooo much.”
He was joking.
She blinked, then blinked again. “Scribe?” She muttered, then stepped forward and hugged him. Strange as he never seen this person before.

salt appeared next to the ghost of the scribe. She was around 5’3 (lil taller than me) and had two pony tails, one had pink on the end the other blue. She wore a leather jacket over a flannel and white undershirt. She seemed to be young to mid teens. She just kinda stared at him eyes wide.
