Watching the flintstones movie made me realize how hard gender must have been back in the day, oh you wanna put on some foundation gotta pull out your 40 lbs stone compact from your 100 lbs bag you carry around. Some of y'all would not make it but I'm built different.
If system 32 is so great how about I delete it and upgrade to system 33
Does dreaming that me and my wife are BL manga protagonists say something about my gender identity? Or am I totally hecking valid and fujoshi-ing out?
When I came out, I thought my relationships with friends and family would qualitatively change. However, things are exactly the same.
I have to imagine this is good. I'm not a new person after all. But when I'm hanging out with friends, and it's the same as it has always been, I get in my head that they're still treating me like a guy.
I have no evidence of this. I have no idea what it means to be treated like a girl. Wouldn't even know if I would like it from them.
Even with my wife, things haven't changed at all (except she loves me even more β€οΈ). I feel like we interact the same way we always have.
Idk is it supposed to feel different? Am I overanalyzing?
spoiler
Yes
I guess I can only tell after I fully transition and meet new people and see how they treat me.
People here treat me like a girl because you've only ever known me as a queerdo, but also you're all legally obligated to treat me that way or you'll get gulaged.
But upon further investigation, I'm not even sure I could point at a comment and say "yeah, this is a good example of someone treating me like a woman"
I'm just spinning my wheels at this point.
TikTok has picked up on my loneliness and keeps giving me ads for dating apps and holy shit there are a ton of these things. I've had it push like half a dozen different ones in the last day or so. I hadn't heard of any of these, why are there so many f#cking apps
for every book I finish, I must acquire 3 or 4 more. This is a natural law of the universe
Shaving may be an endless war, but I leave no prisoners*, and I win my battles.
*some may get away if I happen to miss them despite my efforts, in which case they are executed on-site
i swear i've written and deleted a dozen posts in the last few weeks but we need to beat the news mega so i thought i'd try to push through today
drug talk
i've been feeling pretty out of whack since i stopped weed and started ritalin. i definitely feel like i'm functioning better day-to-day but my anxiety has been through the roof. i was able to go 6 weeks without any weed or alcohol and i think that might be the longest i've been sober in 5 years ~yayy~. i had the normal withdrawal symptoms like insomnia and loss of appetite but all that calmed down around week 4
i also mentioned having more frequent dizziness to my psych and he told me to check my HR with my GP and brought up the possibility of POTS (which after looking into, looks like i have most the symptoms of). at the appointment my GP kinda just brushed off the POTS thing and took my heart rate which was 150bpm. she said we'd check again in 4 weeks and if it's still high probably reduce my medication. that freaked me tf out and made me buy a heart rate tracker to try to self-monitor. fingers crossed i can keep my meds cause they've been so goddamn helpful
fun stuff (also drugs)
so i've been taking some time off work and last week made my first open source contribution (using a language i haven't used before) . definitely felt a lot better than the normal start side-project -> ditch it a few days later routine that i'm used to, especially since it's an app i use regularly
also just started using a hair diffuser since realising that i got wavy hair. along with that, my hair is finally long enough to tie up into a ponytail! and holy jesus fuck it looks so hot now, i don't know what to do
and to celebrate Weed Easter, we had a friend stay over on the weekend. we got really high, talked a bunch, i lost my voice, we went to the cinema to watch Flow, cried a bit, went home, got high again, watched ISTTVG, i cried a lot, we played mario party and ate lots of chocolate, then friend went home the next day. it was a really good time but damn i remembered how much i like to . oh well restarted the sobriety streak on Monday, maybe i can go longer than 6 weeks this run
Playing dark souls 2 again the only way I know how, killing everything until it stops respawning. No skill just patience, if the developers didn't want me to do this then it wouldn't be an option
My neighbourβs alarm clock has been ringing for over half an hour straight now, and itβs SO DAMN loud.
Who needs sleep anyway?
