hi everyonee

trying to post shit for the billionth time cause im shy and dead inside and trying to externalize and stop lurking

i am transfem but not on estrogen and i hate admitting that, i want to hopefully get on DIY in a good bit but that's another issue for me because of various factors ill probably mention later on, tldr distrust in myself, insecure about some other things

I am a ML and love my politics, although the past year has been rough on me and I, dont know, feel like I have lost my "spark". Feel out of life, trying to learn to be a person again, which is why I lurk here so much and read about how others do, feels like insight for me

other things about me, computer nerd, very sociable but awkward, have a loving gf that i love a lot

i find it hard to bond with people cause mostly everyone else has better things to do but id love to meet people i get along with on here (i talk too much if prompted)

also im very prone to selfhating and dysphoria like 80% of the time so yay

i am transfem but not on estrogen and i hate admitting that

i really get this feeling. also factors I can't readily discuss and makes me feel like a fraud sometimes. but know you aren't, and I'm not

i've posted before that i'm in a similar boat as you. i even got some DIY (which i later gave away to a former co-worker in case she gets cut off, since she's terrified of ordering it)

you're transfemme even if you never put a drop of estrogen in you. I've found myself surprisingly contented just being socially transitioned with my partner and a few close friends (and in spaces like here)

[โ€“] thirstyskyline@hexbear.net 4 points 19 hours ago

I want to socially transition cause even if I'm rather seen as masc andro leaning I want to be seen as rather femme

True though, I gaslight myself lol, thank you!!

[โ€“] Seryph@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Welcome welcome! We don't bite~

I totally get the shyness to start posting thing, normally I'm like that too. Glad you were able to work past it this time though, and I hope you'll enjoy your time here.

Starting estrogen is big, even if you're entirely certain like I was it can still feel a little overwhelming and even scary. I can't imagine how that'd be worse when you find it hard to trust yourself too. Fwiw, it's okay to not be on it yet, I know it sucks, especially if you want it; I spent my first 3 years as a trans woman with no E either. But it doesn't make you less trans or less fundamentally fem. I do hope you can get on it as soon as you feel ready for it, though.

(i talk too much if prompted)

Not an issue lmfao, a lot of us are yappers, especially me and my absurdly long ass posts.

[โ€“] thirstyskyline@hexbear.net 2 points 19 hours ago

I have this ambivalent attitude towards estrogen as well I like the mental changes but at the same time I hate puberty and I dont like the idea of going through a second puberty lol

Thank you!!

I have only recently found the game after looking for games that are like Flesh, Blood and Concrete (high rec btw, basically post soviet doomer anti capitalist horror game) and I have only played like the first level only but I like it so far it's very captivating XD

[โ€“] WIIHAPPYFEW@hexbear.net 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

[โ€“] thirstyskyline@hexbear.net 2 points 11 hours ago

You should check out FBC's creator twitter and neocities page. So much lera and nika stuff and her other art is also amazing

i want to hopefully get on DIY in a good bit

dm me if you ever need help with it

(same to @Thallo@hexbear.net, dunno your situation)

[โ€“] Tommasi@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hi,

I'm transfem and also not on HRT :]

I have a wife that I love a lot :3

also im very prone to selfhating and dysphoria like 80% of the time so yay

You'll fit in here~

[โ€“] thirstyskyline@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I want to get on HRT eventually I hope once I move out, but will see, I'm like still visibly gender trangressive and I get shit for that lol but I really would want HRT probably I think

sex, hrtI hope HRT just fucks up my libido cause I just hate the T libido, although this is probably me selfhating than dysphoric, dunno, always disliked it and found it "disgusting" and forceful on my partner, but I probably shouldnt view HRT as a means to this. I do find my current body repulsive but I dont know if the self hate stems from dysphoria or the dysphoria comes from self hate lmao

I had a discussion a bit ago with my partner about this and she kinda told me she felt objectified by me in certain instances as I'm just overwhelming with T libido and I'm trying not to self hate about it but... Dunno, sucks.

I want to qualitatively achieve a better point in life but I dont feel like "deserving of it" at all and idk brain pep talk is bad, as usual

Sapping my energy by debating myself about selfhate moment

Thank you for the welcome though ^^ i talk a lot sorry lol

[โ€“] Thallo@hexbear.net 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

You're pent up because you have been lurking instead of posting catgirl-happy

Stick around and I'm sure everyone here will agree you "deserve" to have good things~

[โ€“] thirstyskyline@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I gaslight myself into thinking I:

  1. dont have things to say
  2. I bother others
  3. why would anyone read my shitty thibgs
[โ€“] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

dont have things to say

You will have many things to talk about if you just look at the random dumb incidents in your life.

[โ€“] thirstyskyline@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

..I guess there is the apprehension that I dont want to get "judged" in a negative sense, even if silly and if people are supportive

[โ€“] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nah, you ain't gonna get judged. I've said embarrassing as hell things on here and it's fine. You can check my post history as proof.

Just start out with small things.

Even if I say something I should selfcrit for the feedback is good after all I guess

Thankies:3

Thank you for the welcome:3

Welcome!

spoiler

but I probably shouldnt view HRT as a means to this. As someone who is aroace and saw HRT partially as a means to that, after starting spiro (even with a lot dose of E that probably hadn't done anything yet), I decided that I didn't want to go back to T-libido - I still wasn't sure how much of the effects of E I wanted at the time. I similarly felt like it was a bad reason to try HRT (instead of just trying other medicines that are more directly aimed at suppressing libido), but I think its a perfectly fine reason. I think if you think HRT is a good solution to your libido, its probably a sign that its actually not *just *about your libido - I personally had a hard time just consciously guessing what I would or would not like and realized I just needed to jump in to test the waters.

[โ€“] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

cause I just hate the T libido

When I went on hrt and lost my libido, it was really nice at first. But in my experience, I didn't gain any "E libido" after (idk if that's even a thing). It has made things difficult for me. And I don't even have a partner that I need to attend. I just feel frustrated.

I'm not trying to discourage you. I wouldn't stop doing HRT no matter the cost. But maybe you should just know what the possible range of experiences is.

[โ€“] thirstyskyline@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Friend of mine is on HRT and said that increasing the dosage made her gain a lot of libido back so maybe it is that? Unsure

[โ€“] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hmmmmmmmmm. I'm on the higher end of dosage, so it might be on a case by case basis. I'm also 90% sure temperature is playing a factor.

For me even without E temp always played a factor but dunno

spoileri dont like my libido cause i perceieve it as "manly" and imposing especially on my girlfriend as she is wayy on the low libido side (in her case id say its stress right now), and just makes me feel shitty like a demanding piece of shit
