Damn, ty for sharing your personal thoughts as well regarding this one. This entire post is heavy as fuck, it's affecting.
I had already put this on my TBR when you mentioned it, 'cause A) it's unique and fascinating B) I really liked the similarly autobiographical Nagata Kabi manga. I def have to read this now, although Idk when I will because I'm not in the right headspace to hunker down for that much heavy subject matter. Sometime, though.
I love when there is textually queer manga, and the autobiographical type is a specific smell I think I dig

Yeah, I'm pretty shaken up tbh, but I'm good
Oh, I saw Kabi's work recommended to me, and I like the art. I'm not sure what I'll read next, and I'm not sure I wanna gear up for something so heavy again so soon
Yeah the, uh what do they call them collectively? My Lesbian Experience With Loneliness,Solo Exchange Diary Vol 1 and 2, My Alcoholic Escape From Reality,My Wandering Warrior Existence... oh shit and there are two more now. Anyway yeah I would wager you'd like em if you like this, same vibe, the Kabi manga is similarly heavy subject matter but maybe a bit less harrowing?
Also if you read something cool, whatever it may be, I am curious ✨

Thanks, it's nice to have people to read with and talk.
I can't believe how much I've shifted over time. 5 years ago, 3 years ago... Maybe even 1 year ago? I would have found reading like this so boring. Sometimes I'll even be halfway through a story and think, "why are you even reading this? You're trying too hard to convince yourself you're queer."
And then I finish it, and I'm like "oh my god, this was a formative experience." To actually feel something from reading, even negative feelings, is pretty incredible. And I'm feeling these things from people simply sharing their life experiences.
Congrats on convincing yourself that you are queer!!! I actually sort of relate to this though? I wasn't much into reading prior to transition and even the queer books I read before I came out didn't do much for me, Nevada's talons aside. I kind of read for emotional catharsis now though, if I come away from a queer story not feeling anything, something fucked up. It is nice.

It's been nice
Ofc, and I feel the same ✨

I would like to clarify that I didn't actually need convincing. I needed understanding and acceptance
