    Also I'm going to dinner with a few coworkers tonight. All four of us are some flavor of trans or nb but two of us haven't told one of the others yet, so I have to wonder if she has any clue what this is about... But then again she sits just over from my cubicle and I'm not always subtle when I talk about it with my deskmate so perhaps she suspects. We'll find out!

    24 hours later the tits remain hidden. I was kinda surprised as at one point I didn't have any clean clothes so I was just wearing my mom's bathrobe and I thought they looked kinda obvious? But nope

    Although oddly enough there was another close call where she wanted some of my extra semaglutide syringes to use for my dog's insulin injections. Only I didn't have that many left over because I haven't ordered in a while and I told her so. Then she asked me if I was doing drugs or something because apparently I was acting cagey?? Of course I, the recently injected with estradiol "boy", said no.

    It's gonna be tough when I move, I'll need to make sure they don't run into my makeup or HRT. I might ask a friend to hold on to it for a couple days...

    Being beautiful (some of the time, at least), and loving myself is so cool.

    I'm gonna get even hotter just to mog all the cissies. Cissies literally can't be as hot as me, I am a Goddess who has overcome all their little rules, they literally can't compete

    reminder diet culture is a form of fascism

    (diet culture doesnt just mean “being on a diet” for some personal reason. diet culture is the societal idea that everyone should be striving for "physical perfection" at all times. its that thing where nearly everyone is on a diet or told they should be)

    I keep losing my health insurance and having to reapply every 2 months. I haven’t had new T vials for months (using old ones, I’ve officially ran out as of last week) and I haven’t been able to take my antidepressants nor my adhd medication regularly. I got approved again on November 3rd… but have to wait till December 1st for it to even fucking activate. I wish I didn’t have all this mental shit and didnt have to rely on pills to function. Being human sucks bruh I did not ask for this shit! And ESO just crashed while I was waiting for a world boss to spawn I’m gonna crash out 😔😔

    You can lead a trans woman to estrogen but you can't make her inject it! Sad!!

    Latest blood test results are in, my levels are perfect! Sweet spot estrogen at 162 ng/L (at least that seems perfect according to various recommended levels I've averaged together), and nuked testosterone at 0.22 ng/mL.

    And all that with just E gel and a prog pill, no injections

    Now that I have my bottom surgery date, I have to like work a lot of OT because my short term benefits only cover 67% of my paycheck. Bleh. I have enough sick time and banked time to cover 1 month at full pay which is great and all but whatever. I dunno how people manage this without benefits, I guess they save up more

    I had a great time with my work friends!! We got pizza and talked and I was so animated I felt like a real human. I didn't actually disclose the whole trans thing to the one who didn't know. But next time we go out together I'm gonna lay all my cards out on the table right at the beginning. Hell maybe before that, I kinda wanna ask her if she does injections or not

    anti-transmasculinity anti-non binary

    there's a sort of cis approval or head nod ( 😠) when they think my feminine expression is just an ontological part of my so called "binary sex" like "Ah yes see ur a girl clearly 😏" but then also disapproval and confusion, they cant quite parse me and how I act (its the trans masculinity and non binary femininity,) but they dont want me to be too feminine. They want me to be the sort of "girl" who takes charge and bosses "her man" around to do things I "cant" do, like open a jar of pickles. And the cis women are like 😩 why dont you ask a man to do it. And then she opens the jar herself lol. Like the rules are MADE UP!!!

    The doctor confirmed my initial dosage of the cypionate was 1.25mg because apparently it's stronger than the valerate, but that doesn't seem true according to either estrannai.se or https://transfemscience.org/misc/injectable-e2-simulator/? (to be clear I'm on the valerate now, I was only prescribed the cypionate briefly before I saw the low dosage and asked her to switch "because of the expense")

    I know I'm beating a dead horse with this but I still almost can't believe it. Is there any good reason for her to say that?

    Man I’m super struggling with my loneliness and the fact I haven’t had a friend in years, since about junior year in highschool.

    I’m turning 21 in January and I feel like I’m so behind. My brother is only a year older than me and has so many friends he actually is close to, not just acquaintances, he’s planning a ski trip to Colorado with a group of friends and plays video games all the time with others and goes to parties and I struggle so much with comparing myself to him. He was talking about his plans and friends yesterday, and he just got a really really good job in realty, at just 22, when we went to my moms for thanksgiving and I think that’s what brought this feeling on. I have a hard time giving myself grace with the fact that being trans and having adhd and ocd has made my development hard because he’s also adhd and ftm, although Im stealth and he’s open.

    My parents are also very extroverted and I’m just so sad I’m the only member of my family who is super shy and can’t even begin to understand how to approach talking to someone. I have brain fog all the time and can never think of funny or interesting replies in conversations unless I’m really familiar with them. With my family I’m funny (I know because they’ve always told me lol) and smart but with everyone else I’m so fucking boring. I’ve been working for a year and a half and hav even going to college since fall and I feel like I haven’t made a dent in my social skills. I always feel so aware and I hate it.

    I’m just really struggling with this feeling of horrible loneliness, and it makes me so sad to see everyone else living how I want to live. I just don’t know how to start. I’m moving to Chicago late next year when I’ve finally saved 10k and I hope it helps to give me a reset, I feel so stagnant here.

    I like me and I don’t want to fundamentally change myself, but I wish I could make friends and be more outgoing but that feels so not me. I love extroverts and want to have extroverted friends but I can’t imagine attracting those types because I’m so stoic and take a while to open up.

    Idk. I just feel pathetic. I’m nearly 21 still working in food service, living with my parent, 0 friends, depressed, struggling with even turning assignments in on time, and it’s also hard being gay in a small Midwest town.

    Sorry for the long ass rant
