As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.

Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.

Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.

One of my nipples grew bigger than the other since starting MTF HRT half a year ago. How long until they become the same size again? The areolas are the same size.

[โ€“] Alisu@hexbear.net 2 points 1 hour ago

That's 100% normal, it might never, but that's being a woman, I guess

They might never be the same size, unfortunately. Back when I had tits one of my nipples was bigger than the other (areolas were the same size) and the other never grew to match it. Tits are rarely entirely symmetric, so you're probably just going to have to deal with this.

should i drive over to saudi arabia and see if i can meet any trans ppl there

[โ€“] Octagonprime@hexbear.net 14 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Shout-out to the people who encouraged me when I posted in the trans megathread when my egg was cracking like 7-8 months ago. 6 months on hrt now and Im so much happier :D

[โ€“] KrupskayaPraxis@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

How could you get on HRT so quickly?

[โ€“] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 2 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

If she's in the US, there are states where you can just go to planned parenthood, say you're feeling gender dysphoria and want hormones, and they'll prescribe them for you.*

*May no longer be true with the damage the Trump admin is doing to trans healthcare.

Here in the Netherlands you have to wait on year long waiting lists or start doing DIY HRT.

[โ€“] Alisu@hexbear.net 1 points 1 hour ago

Damn, wtf? I have to get 1 (one) whole year with a fucking endocrinologist to get a prescription

[โ€“] lilypad@hexbear.net 7 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

I had two drinks over the course of several hours, how am i somehow drunkish? Like, im not drunk drunk, but im more than tipsy??? Granted, i havent had alcohol in weeks, but still two drinks (not even super heavy pours either, like an extra 20% cause the bartender likes meeee) shouldnt hit me like this???? New calibration point for alcohol ig?

If you started hrt semi-recently, it's probably that. I know when I started T my alcohol tolerance increased quite noticeably, so assuming the timing makes sense, you're probably experiencing the inverse of that

[โ€“] Boynomoder@hexbear.net 7 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Two drinks is usually what does it for me

[โ€“] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 7 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Is it possible to do HRT badly enough that it permanently messes up your transition or is it a kind of thing where it would just mean it takes more time?

[โ€“] 0x2640@hexbear.net 12 points 8 hours ago

just takes more time

unless u seriously mess up for like years n get osteoperosis

[โ€“] Alisu@hexbear.net 11 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Got a few web friends to use my real pronouns and my new name. It just makes me feel euphoric, but somehow still feels wrong. Maybe some internalized transphobia or just the disphoria (probably because I haven't started any part of the transition yet). But I'm happy anyways for getting some validation.

[โ€“] yewler@hexbear.net 5 points 8 hours ago

I have absolutely been there. In my experience is does get better the more you experience it

[โ€“] yewler@hexbear.net 12 points 11 hours ago

transphobiaImagine deadnaming someone in your birthday message to her

I wish I could thanos snap these people into a pocket dimension so I don't have do deal with them. Fucking hell

Up with trans. Down with cis

In other news I got invited to a thing on Friday that I'm suuuuuper excited about. I'm going to get to flex my gay muscles

[โ€“] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

wtf... someone keeps peeing in my bed while i'm sleeping. what the fuck

[โ€“] GayTuckerCarlson@hexbear.net 11 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Is Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad trans culture?

[โ€“] segfault11@hexbear.net 8 points 12 hours ago

maybe... tbh breaking bad is one of the few TV shows I've watched in its entirety, 3 times actually

[โ€“] Bolshechick@hexbear.net 8 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Is there a way to buy estrogen online (in the US) that doesn't involve having to use crypto?

[โ€“] segfault11@hexbear.net 7 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

prescription, or get a friend to buy it with crypto, and reimburse them with cash

but seriously, dragon ordnance (ships from china) accepts bank transfers from a service called wise, I've never used it so I don't know if it's a good option but if you really don't want to go through crypto, look into that

[โ€“] XiaCobolt@hexbear.net 6 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

My partner had used wise to buy reproduction goods from China. Worked and got the stuff but our bank kept trying to block it early on.

Coworker gave me a hair tie and another put my hair up for me kitty-cri

Low key have shed a few tears about it... just really nice of them to help me and feels kind of like something women would usually do for other women. Not out to them or anything but still you know.. needed something nice to happen to me today too.

[โ€“] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 7 points 12 hours ago

this is sweet i have memories like this

I keep some hairties on me all the time (on my keys, in my wallet), gettining to help out someone, is a good feeling in return. I think i gave one to some random retail staff who were getting chewed out by a manager in front of me once

[โ€“] MoonElf@hexbear.net 6 points 13 hours ago

that's really nice!

I've been passing at work and wirh all my patients, weird feeling. Besides a little voice work all I did was move to a city.

[โ€“] lilypad@hexbear.net 6 points 13 hours ago

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! That is all.

Addendum:

screm-aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[โ€“] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 4 points 12 hours ago

hot? yeah i guess it was a little toasty overnight now i've had to crack out my second blanket, its the middle of winter! This is southern hemisphere erasure!

im doing okay, someone in the vague 'activist scene' in my city is kinda making my life hell atm, theyre not well, but neither am i. So i'm fading out of existence. For how much people all talk about 'community', i'm yet to have many people check in with me.

Theyre going to be living in a worldwithoutlawyers.jpg now i'm gone. no one else is going to tell them to reexamine their preconceptions, theres going to be unexamined racist shit going down, i tell you what.

i kept being told 'well remember what you were like when you were young!', and i kept thinking, yeah damn, they should all be doing drugs instead of crowing themselves godking of the 'movement'.

this has all really destroyed my confidence i'm actually too anxious to even check replies here atm, for a while i couldnt even comment because i felt like everyone was so mad at me lol.

The 'scene' is good for them, but has been a disaster for my mental health. so i'm dropping everything so i can rekindle my energy and re engage myself with my union organising.

i dunno this feels like too much, maybe im too much. I'm getting echoes of an ex telling me 'i'm not availible to do emotional labour for you'. haha hehe hoho yes

if people are treating you like shit, you should leave, its not easy, but its for the best
