          Oh damn already on injections? I had to wait a year. Your best bet is to ultimately purchase your own needles and syringes. It’s what I do. I have like 2 years of each and it cost me like $50

            I know there's a needle exchange program run around here that could also hook me up if the pharmacy can't

          Cool that they start you on E right away though, I had to wait a few months of just AAs when I started.

    Had my 3 week post-op appointment today. Everything is healing splendidly! Next follow-up is at 2 months so that says how well it is going right there. I’m super happy with how everything has gone. Well, GI tract issues aside of course, but still. Best month of my life hands down. Sorry if I’ve been waxing poetic about it too much. It’s hard to not be super happy about my bottom surgery =w=

      You should talk as much as you want about it! It's a massive step and it sounds like you're dodging pretty much any complication. Hyped for you transshork-happy

        for a lot of transfems, the trick with skirts is at which height you wear them. They just don't look very good on me when they sit on my hips, but they're fine above my belly or at the height of my belly button. Where to put the waistline is a huge decision when you're dressing femme and if you have an "apple" shape like me, wearing things that run low on the hips just doesn't work well.

          Learning where my new waistline is was a game changer for fashion. My legs are sooo long when I dress them right.

          I do not. I’m somewhere between a rectangle and barely an hourglass. I’ve tried a few things and I can’t make them work, so I just eschew them altogether.

    Was told I'm not really a trans femme because I stopped taking hrt meds after being happy with my body. Like what the shit?

          lol if it comes up again you can just use soap and water. That's what diabetics do to (or are supposed to). It doesn't have to be alcohol. You're just cleaning your skin to lower the risk of infection (which is generally pretty low if you do all the normal hygiene stuff).

    I have gender dysphoria, I think.

    Been lurking here for a while. Came out to my wife as genderfluid a couple weeks ago, which was pretty rough. That doesn't feel like the whole thing, though.

    dysphoria?

    Maleness feels like a mask or lack of awareness about myself. Femininity is the only way I feel like I'm "seeing" myself.

    Happy to be here finally talking to the trans people in my computer cat-trans

    My mom visited me from out of town this weekend. She's been mostly supportive but also really boomer about everything up until now, but recently she has been talking to people who know trans people and reading books to understand me better. I have never felt so seen and so understood by my mom. We talked the harm we've both done to each other candidly, and she accepted responsibility as the parent for all of it.

    Before this, i was sure that she'd never "get" it and that our relationship was always going to be at arms length but she switched it up on me. And now our relationship is going to be difficult again but it's a very different difficult and I'm really excited for it.

      Dysphoria, dysmorphia, badfeels

      Wake up early in the morning, have the eepy weepy morning dysphoria and dress accordingly. Baggy sweatpants and a hoodie. Invulnerability.

      Go to work, the rain clears and the sun comes. It's a nice day. Drink the coffee and do the morning stretches. The Silly Funhouse Mirror Disease has abated and it's gonna be okay.

      ...

      Go outside, see the pretty girls in their cute spring outfits. Imagine what could have been, had different decisions been made mere hours ago. Now the armor is tight, confining. There is nothing left to be defended but civilian life is a whole workday away. Sadness and jealousy remains. Fear once again leads to defeat.
