Thought Swap

Take a moment to think about two negative thoughts that the gender dysphoria tells you. Now, in the spaces provided, write the two negative thoughts, then two neutral thought swaps you can tell yourself now and two positive thought swaps 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 thought swap – The gender dysphoria sucks right now at this moment.

Positive thought swap – I am taking actions to cope with the gender dysphoria and I will get through this!
