I think the seeds are technically classified as nuts.

Stil cis tho

Thanks for the advice, I’ll definitely look into it. My mental health is somewhat sub par at the moment so I’m not sure how soon I’ll be comfortable with being myself in a public setting. So I think the plan as it stands is boymod until I start getting correctly gendered. It’s not like I live in a super conservative city or anything, but I have a fair bit of baggage from my early years that needs to be dealt with. I don’t have a burning need for society to accept who I am, I just want to feel like I belong in my own skin and accept myself. Or rather that’s the most important thing for me.

Found out i am almost certainly transfem. So there’s that.

Takk for det! Ja selvfølgelig er det best å gjør det gjennom riksen. Og Æ mener at det blir ganske greit på utredningstimer. Æ vet hva de leter etter. Æ er ganske kjent med icd10.

Men det er iallfall godt å vite at det finnes andre muligheter.

Det faktisk hjelper ganske mye, takk! Det er en senter som spesialiserer i kjønnsinkongruens i byen der Æ bor men det er kun til folk som er mye yngre enn mæ. Så det ser ut at det må enten skje via Riks eller en annen lit mer uoffisiell måte. vet du hvor ulovlig det er å importere pillene? Er det sånn at pakken blir stoppet og ikke levert eller blir det noe straff? Æ er ikke helt klar over hva loven sier om det.

You’re right of course. I do have a lot of fear and anxiety around it. I grew up in a very unforgiving place where people would find any difference at all to pin the bullying on. So I learned to keep any thoughts to myself and not really express myself or let anyone in. So exposing myself in any way seems overwhelming. But, yes it’s just a product of the conformist environment in which I grew up.

Thanks for the link. And sharing your story. It’s very encouraging. I’m actually pretty sure my partner is demi as well I’m just worried her feelings for me would change if I do. As for clothes, I already have plenty of flannel shirts 😂 they’d just look better on me with a more feminine figure. Actually what I’d be wearing would only be minimally different from what I’m wearing now (I think). My partner likes it when I role my sleeves up so I’d be foolish to not keep that.

She’s said as much

Thanks. That sounds like a logical next step. All i need now is some friends to play with 😂

Well I’ve not played d&d but i know that i always play as a female character in computer games unless there isn’t a choice. But then I preferentially play the games with female protagonists. I’m really happy with the new hazelight game split fiction, because both the characters are female. (my partner always insists on playing the female character in it takes 2).

I have thick curly hair and back when i kept it long i would wash out the conditioner by submerging my head underwater and shaking it loose. Then shake off like a dog and lie facing the ceiling with my head hanging off the end of the bed until it drip/air dried. It gave me volume and neat little ringlets. Of course I was convinced I was a boy so I didn’t necessarily appreciate it as much as I should have.

While its true that there can be implications for the efficacy and side effects of medication if you’re doing hrt. You can also check for those interactions before you get your prescription or ask someone who you know to be safe. It’s going to potentially be safer than being denied care all together. a lot of places are extremely transphobic if not in policy then in the personal prejudice of people generally.

Var det i bibelbeltet eller? Jeg spørre bare fordi jeg har ikke begynt med noe som helst enda og ville vite hvor vanskelig det kommer til å bli.

I’m glad you have such a positive response. I find it very encouraging. The only thing standing in my way right now is broaching the subject with my SO. She is very left leaning and bi. But she fell in love with the man me and is bi not pan. So during the androgynous middle ground which might take years to get through, she will not find me physically attractive in the slightest.

Looking into it, around a 7 on the futch scale?

Honestly if it just helps me be less angry all the time it’d be a massive win.

It’s more that they already have their own stuff to deal with and whilst the adults around us are going to be civil in person, they’ll still talk freely in private and their kids will be less restrained at school.

That’s kinda where I’m ending up. I can always use cupcakes as a supplementary treatment.

Yay! (hopefully)
