sadposting, depersonalization, discussion of trauma
I’ve been feeling very… out of it. Kind of untethered to reality. And that reality includes friends who care about me, it even includes the funny bear website (hence why I haven’t been posting.) Part of it is the fact that I got way hyperfixated, and I turned to that hyperfixation to take my mind off of some shitty life circumstances, but now I don’t know how to pull myself back. Looking in the mirror is so weird because I don’t feel like I’m looking at myself in it, whoever “myself” is; even more than usual. I don’t feel like I’m looking at a real person. Part of me honestly wants to sink into my hyperfixations forever and just drift away from reality and completely into my own mind, but like, I can’t do that. Doesn’t help that I just went through something kind of traumatic and I have no idea how to process it.

i got to go to bed. i got my first HRT follow up in just a day and a half now and i have to tell them how nice estrogen makes me feel
GOOD mega I've been checking it all week 💜
It's interesting to see that half the site is queer, and the numbers line up because the trans mega is pretty much half the size of the site wide mega in terms of comments
I have an announcement to make
Fishmonger is good but not as good as Wallsocket
Retvrn to Wallsocket
Thank u for ur time
Can I microdose MTF HRT and get some alleviation of dysphoria and mental/emotional changes without getting the physical changes?
I asked the same question, and someone here told me that a lower dose of HRT doesn't mean fewer or softer effects. It means the same effects but more slowly
Ah fuck that really messes up the elaborate plans I made based on little to no research
i'll probably make a post about this but does anyone know if it's ok to take 200mg prog (suppository) every other day, the aim being an effective dose of 100mg/day? my drug intuition says it would be fine but i know hormones can be weird compared to other drugs so i wanted to get an opinion, and it's not like i have access to an endo lol
Did not expect my skin to become this red and irritated from electrolysis 😣 Ouch
spoiler
cut my nipple shaving my chest earlier today and oh FUCK that hurts
How important is Spiro (or another anti-androgen) for HRT? I got started with just Estradiol, and I was originally planning on doing both until I saw some contradictory information, first on reddit and then on transfemscience.org. It says it's not very effective, but at the same time so many people are on it so it must do something? If anyone could help clarify, I would greatly appriciate it 😁.
I'm glad this mega was able to stay site-pinned all week. Hopefully it can next week as well 🏳️⚧️😁
