Cognitive Reframes

Take a moment to think about two negative thoughts that your gender dysphoria tells you. Now, in the spaces provided, write two negative thoughts, then two neutral reframes you can tell yourself now and two positive reframes you would like to be able to tell yourself in the future.

For example:

Negative thought – I will always feel this intense level of gender dysphoria.

Neutral reframe – My gender dysphoria sucks right now at this moment.

Positive reframe – I am taking actions to cope with my gender dysphoria and I will get through this!
