They were pretty chill. I checked with my boss, he said i could go forward how i wanted to, and I literally just asked my coworkers to call me by a new name. Didn't make a thing of it. Everybody was at least polite enough not to be a dick to my face. I'd been dressing masc and binding for a while though, so there wasn't much of a physical change up. Started HRT soon after.

Ultimately it always depends on your attractiveness.
>>
>>7899654
fug you :(
>>
>>7899660
There's different types of attractiveness. A handsome male isn't going to be attractive in the same way a beautiful woman is. And andro faces have their own spectrum of attractiveness too. So comparing the three, at a hypothetical high attractiveness level, andro is the superior breed.

Well I'm at a bar or party thinking like "I'll practice being charming with kinda-cute women, because women I'm really into are too intimidating right now and men are completely mysterious"

Then I end up making out with a girl while thinking "She's pretty cute but does she know I'm trans, do I tell her, is it worth it?"

Then I dip out to use the washroom or smoke and disappear into the night
>>
>>7899937
How about playing the long game?
Leave the bar and go for a walk and talk with her, maybe follow her home and if she's looking for nookie ask for her number instead and ask if she wants to get a coffee some time in the week.

Instead of having to out yourself to a stranger you can get a potential gf and come out when you know she's to be trusted.

>>7900048

That's why you get to know them first and check if they are crazy. If they are, don't tell them.
It's also very risky to come out to randos at the club because they can snap pics and to an online revenge campaign by spamming them.

They should have done the Japanese thing and included a pack of tissues.
>>
>>7901481
How is that japanese?
>>
>>7901351
Yeah, at least until I'm pinching pennies and need to clean it out. They aren't even those good kind of peppermints. They're red and white but that chalky chewy kind. Also everything I bought came with lube packets, which isn't weird but redundant since I bought lube.

Been meaning to buy crap like this for years to try and make sex more fun since I find it painfully boring and now that I have it, I'm more uninterested than ever. Maybe after a few drinks.
>>
>>7901507
The Japanese sometimes include a pack of tissues when you order something online.

>>7901539
Use the extra lube to put the mints up your bum

Reminds me when my gf and I tried different lubes. One was a 'cooling' lube that burned like a thousand suns. It was like brushing your vagina with toothpaste or icy hot.

Dear Brooklyn (and anyone else it may concern,) this is the last time I will have access to a computer for a month. I am in Salt Lake City, Utah now and have arrived at my rehab facility. Unfortunately, I had a psychotic episode and ended up in the local psych ward. This, ironically enough, landed me access to a computer. I don't think the computer at rehab has access to 4chan but I'll definitely check. I don't think I'm gonna stay out here actually. Probably gonna go back to Atlanta when this is all over. Anyway, I get out Monday. Hit me back before then.

I think it's fine but I'm on the fence whether or not I want to see it in the news intentionally aka they put or wanted it there rather it being an invasion of privacy.
Some people just have a very strong drive for biological kids. Adoption and surrogate mothers is very expensive and time consuming so I can see why it's just easier to drop T for half a year and birth your own kid. There really isn't anything wrong with it besides you don't like it. It's not like pregnancy is permanent.

Unless it's tucutes who make no effort to pass, show tits, wear makeup and brag how manly it is to get knocked up. Which to my knowledge has not happened yet and they will grow out of their fake identities before they reproduce.

shit... sorry to hear that, i've known a couple people who have been in psych wards before never was myself...

i talked myself out of one once in the hospital cuz suicide shit and anyway, these 2 guys who worked there were trying to force me to undress and threatening to sedate and restrain me while i was just sitting there, talking to me like they were trying to get me to act anything other than calm... a doctor told them to leave the room and said none of what they were doing there was necessary cuz i wasn't doing anything to warrant their presence... just pretended everything was fine and went home cuz yeah... didn't wanna stay there, and while i did still want to kill myself being there with those guys around didn't seem like it would make that any better

how are you holding up? how's the withdrawal?

wish i could help you out when you're out of rehab but idk where i'm gonna be in a month

cisbro reporting
cisbro loves you all, yell at me, ask me weird dick questions, whatever

tip of the day: make your own antiperspirant with equal parts baking soda and cornstarch, with enough coconut oil to make a paste. you'll want more oil if you keep it in a jar, less if you stuff it in a roll-on applicator. honestly better results than any brand ive ever tried, and no aluminum, which slowly we are realizing is linked to alkaloid plaque and therefore dementia and breast cancer.

also PBR is for hipsters and my uncle
my uncle is doing 45 years in a utah penitentiary so do you wanna be like him
do you

i did a bad job explaining

aluminum is linked to alkaloid plaques and breast cancer. alkaloid plaques are linked to dementia. there is no established correlation between alkaloid plaques and breast cancer of which medical science is currently aware

As someone who has been in psyche wards there is only three reasons why you should ever go.
1 is that you are suicidal enough to go through something a real danger to yourself or others. Suicide hotlines also will not call anyone or try to find you if you word your call right. Don't admit you hurt yourself or will kill yourself unless you actually want help.
2 is that you have real psychotic problems and are not getting help you need on your own, however this can also be a huge waste of time and frustration depending on what the psyche ward is like since chances are they will keep you for 48 hours and just set you loose with nothing since at that point most people have long calmed down and just want to go home so it makes you comply and lie to get the fuck out. It's one of those 'last resort' things.
3 you are actually completely fucking batshit but at this point you shouldn't be able to realize you are insane so you would hopefully be involuntarily committed. Depending where you live, this can be hard. I speak from much experience with my mother, who is truly batshit and through all the crazy and harmful shit she did to herself, it took her attacking a random dude on the phone at the hospital for them to finally agree she is nuts.

I guess there's a fourth option where you need a 'break' from everything or your home/situation but that's pretty shitty to do. Waste of everyone's time and resources.
Never been in rehab so I'm not sure how different it is compared to psyche wards but I imagine it's similar. No freedom, constantly watched, can't do shit, shit food, treated like a child, scolded for retarded shit like swearing, etc.

more mtf than ftm that i know of- so this is subjective experience here- act more like a caricature of the target sex than the actual 'normal' cis member of the target sex. it can hit uncanny valley sometimes. most mtf seem to shoot for being just normal dudes.

testosterone kills men, long story short. it's why cis men live 8 years less on average. so i want to help anyone who wants to get into that and ends up with guy responsibilites. i feel for anyone who starts with less bone density and dimorphic differences in muscle mass, works to a different level, and then ends up on an oil rig or laying tile, you know? i want to give any practical advice I can. it's like teaching a brother to lift with his legs. let's keep your spine in working order.

plus guys tend to be more accepting in general. imagine two blokes in a bar. one posits an uncouth remark about the sexual morality of the other's mom. his compatriot responds in kind about the peculiarly close branches of the first's family tree. in turn, a quip regarding the reputation a sister garnered among the major sports teams during her scholastic career, a rebuttal about the current girlfriend's marked resemblance to an ill-groomed horse, and soon enough they're both out back and one of our brave heroes will end up inspecting pavement.

then they go back in and sit down, and have another beer.

what i'm getting at is if you're not a total prick then you're much more likely to be welcomed aboard than mtf are among cis women. we're smelly, angular, and it's curious why somebody would want to join the club. but most guys just plain don't give a shit about your junk. hold the door open and don't stiff waiters and we're all good.

yeah, those years between 77 and 84 are high quality of life and should not be missed!

seriously, though, women lose at least 8 years of their lives trying on shoes and applying makeup.

eh i didn't go to the hospital by choice... it's a long story... anyway by the time i was there a bit i had enough time to push everything down and act like nothing was still going on, but before that...

i wasn't about to admit myself and didn't exactly plan the trip...

wasn't exactly a good time, but i'm not about to get into detail...

as for rehab never been there, i locked myself in my apartment for a week to get off heroin... only went out for cigarettes and then i left brooklyn and came here

there was a point where i was thinking about rehab though, i was using every day at one point just enough to not feel sick without getting high and then binging on weekends and then doing that shit again... and i thought about rehab but i couldn't go... i couldn't have everyone know how bad it had gotten so yeah...

the suicide shit was... i couldn't hide that one, it wasn't like when i tried to hang myself where i just got drunk and pretended i was ok when it didn't work out and no one knew... everyone thought it was the first time and there was no hiding it...

Bs aside you can give me advice on lifting, friend. My job is to lift things up and down for 6-13 hours a day. Made slightly harder since I have to stretch and stand on my toes to put boxes on higher places since I'm short. I've been doing this since September with no problems until now. Heaviest is usually only up to 71lbs on our portion but I get moved around to other sections including the bulk area where shit can be over 200lbs+ that my small 5'3" 115lbs ass is expected to lift at least 4ft off the ground. I can only comfortably lift 65lbs above my head currently and I've been stuck at that for like two months now despite all the labor, damn protein and vitamins I can force to stomach.

I also have an umbilical hernia which ironically was not caused by my job but severe coughing due to pnenomia. My throat was so raw I was coughing blood but doctor said I was no longer allowed to take cough medicine since I had to cough all the shit out of my lungs and I was out of work for the days it appeared.
I had slight stomach pain and doctor confirmed my stomach felt a little hard but said it was probably just gas or something and gave me antibiotics. Next day I noticed a really hard spot on my stomach and thought maybe it was an abcess due to its an injection site for T but nope, hernia. Now I haven't gotten it fixed yet because poor and my insurance is through my job and I can't miss the hours just yet since I fell behind with the sickness but now I'm worried about lifting.
I've been scrounging all the sites and forums I can to make sure I'm lifting right and taking any advice I can get that will allow me to keep working. I like my job but they will raise hell if they find out I do have a hernia despite I know I didn't get it from working.

He's a handsome man with that huge cleft chin.
He still looks masculine even with long blond hair.
I think he was gay and I think Courtney had him murdered when he wanted to divorce her.

confidence comes from two things: feeling capable and having little or no anxiety.
feeling capable in conversation means knowing you can say interesting things. what's interesting? dunno, depends on the person. so learn. learn about various topics and remember the cool bits especially well. learn about ship building, what inspired picasso, upcoming movies relativity, gardening, everything. you'll be a better person and more prepared.
anxiety is defeated by practicing technique. how do you SOUND when you talk. is your voice clear and steady? are your shoulders back and your stomach relaxed? do you sound hurried? do you say 'um' a lot?
watch public speakers and actors. look and listen, practice the way you say things.
here's an example- out loud, try saying "hey, how are you?" in different tones and see how it changes the meaning- casual, flirty, worried, bored. listen to the differences you naturally take on when your intent changes.
listen to others and yourself and practice public speaking using exercises. the surefire way to git gud is to spill a lot of spaghetti- eventually you get enough practice in that your voice is controlled, your thoughts clear, and you can keep the conversation steady. there's no teacher like failure, but youtube breathing exercises are a close second.

shit man that ain't good. that really isn't good. the longer you let a hernia go the more likely it is that it goes from "sucks ass" to "sucks ass for the rest of my life"

I honestly can't give you advice on how to lift with a hernia that OSHA hasn't already put on a poster on the break room wall. squat all the way down, straighten back, hands under object, smoothly straighten legs, lift up with the arms.

the only new advice I can give you is to find out how to get the injury taken care of. can you inquire of your insurance without blowing the lid off? how bad would work freak out?

Old vets are hard dudes. Had one as a co-worker who sliced himself with an old, questionable sawblade. Said "ah fuck" and straight up took a blow torch on some metal, burned it shut and went back to work. His limbs and back were full metal from injuries but he is the most 'no fucks given' person ive met. I was honored when he once told me I was a good, red blooded worker when he started ranting about the Chinese.

His wife was pretty hard too since she had been a war-nurse until she turned like 75.

>>7903406
Since I've been out sick for so long I just can't afford the $20 co-pay until this Friday. We don't get paid for sick days, I don't get vacation days until a full year and need a certain amount of hours to keep our benefits which due to cut hours and my sick time off I'm too close for comfort. My little brother recently somehow got a hernia but it was more I'm his groin. He said they put you under and put in a mesh to close it. From what I was told and how he was still up and about it doesn't seem like its very hard to recover from.

I have put my foot down on 'working safetly'. They will push you overboard, raise hell about how important it is to be safe and then at the same time bitch and get you for the very same things they tried to make you do. In the end it's a business and that's what management cares about. The union makes it easier to put your foot down too, thankfully. I've told my supervisor to chill the fuck out, I'm working as safe as I can or just plain fuck off because he isn't supposed to be touching boxes in the first place. Not going to pretend I know all about unions or my rights but people flip when sups are doing our job because they get grievance pay. My supervisor also slipped a disc and I haven't seen him in almost two months. Words from the vine was that he got in trouble for not only doing our job but not doing it 'safely' so I'm worried about being at fault for injury.
>>
>>7903503
Cont.
They nail it into you that even the slightest bump or scratch needs to be reported but they don't want to be at fault so they just accuse you of not doing shit right. Not only management but co-workers too. Maybe it's because it's all old retired dudes and the graveyard shift but everyone fucking hates everyone so they can be just as bitchy as management with "oh ask for help with lifting something heavy" and then look at you and refuse but you get used to it and as long as you put your foot down you can make them do their job and help.

The insurance is good but they cover their ass so they don't get sued so injuries people do get on the job can be seen and treated just fine, but it's less of a problem if it's 'not related' to work. In my case it really is but I don't want to push it. I got college tuition on the line here too with the job so I won't have to break my back for the rest of my life. I truly like the work as repetitive as it is but I rather not be crippled before I'm 50 and not much else offers benefits like they do at this bottom scale entry level. Plus, it's actively hard to get fired and no customer interaction.

I don't know if I should move back or not. If I'm being honest it's the girl I miss more than anything, but I should let it go and I don't know if she's even interested in me anymore. But I'm not going to meet a girl here. I never even go out except when I visit my friends in the city occasionally. I'm 25 and I feel like I'm wasting the last of my youth, after wasting the first 20+ years being a girl.

I am getting a loan to cover my surgery. I qualify for keyhole surgery, which is nice because of minimal scarring. But it looks like (and I've read this) that keyhole surgery will still leave the nipples about the same size, so your tits will still be slightly perky. Fuck that.

I also noticed with the other type of top surgery that cuts under the breasts almost always has weird shaped nipples. They always look sewn on either lop sided or look like theyre vertical shaped.

Why the fuck can't surgeons make female nipples look like male nipples??? I want a flat chest with tiny-ass guy nipples
>>

no offense but this is awful advice imo. it sounds like what someone who's always been pretty outgoing would say

How far a field do your work travels take you? Multiple: cities, states/provinces, or counties?

You should use some of the money you are saving living with mom and stay in different places a few times a year... like rent a suite motel, check out the night life and work opportunities in different cities.

You're young, take different cities out for a test drive... try radically different places: coastal, desert, rural, urban... might as well see as much as you can.

Feels good man. More exercises at the gym makes the chest area looks way better too.

I have no clue but I saw cis men with bigger nipples/areolas than women though. Mine are about the size of a 20 cent € coin.

what does that have to do with anything?

anyway, i remember you mentioning her now, and idk... i still don't see how the kid is a big deal or someone else... especially if it hasn't stopped you from being hung up on her... may as well give it a go, not like you gotta take it seriously or spend your life with her

i'm just saying to get all of that out of your system and then move forward

it's not like you're tied down to her or anywhere... if you spend some time in the city and regret it you could always leave... she's the one who's tied down not you

or you could just find someone else, but it's easier to do that when you don't live with your mom...

I don't qualify for keyhole surgery, so I'm bitter, but I have always thought that a majority of the results I've seen from double mastectomy look off in one way or another. Fucked up nipples being a huge issue for me, I'm going to have all kinds of specifications for the size and position of my nipples when it's time for surgery.
Honestly though I do have a more vertical thing going on already with my nipples, so I think that can be a trait to female nips too and surgeons just don't really bother to correct it much.

Those guys may have gyno though.

I think these could be better, but maybe I'm just under-estimating exactly how hard chest surgery is.
Visually though, scarring is nice and thin in only one of the patients. The key hole surgery is the best but even then it's not a frontal shot, and I suspect like the rest the nipples are too low or otherwise missplaced. In the others (double mastectomy) the nipples also lost a lot of structural integrity and look weirdly flat or bumpy if you zoom in.
Also looks like >>7907760 left nip (to us) was put on upside down lol. Other than that they look the right size at least.
They look all right for not-fully-healed post-op shots until you start to inspect them, basically. The devil's in the details.

I actually find briefs less problematic.

Boxers especially wad up and shift around a lot for me, it was like aggressive groin flossing. Especially ones where the inner seams were very pronounced, like little Joe Boxer crotch saws chewing away at your clit head. Boxers don't often have real crotch support, often having a seam right down the middle where your cunt flaps can pull it right in and guide it to the worst possible areas.

I went to full on briefs and have not gone back. Boxer briefs are fine, too, because they have a broad piece of cloth that sort of cups your labia majora without a seam running down the middle aligning with your own... seam.

I just don't like how the boxer briefs ride up my thighs squeezing them and making my ass look lumpy... lumpier. I wind up slashing the leg hems because they were terrible on my "thunder thighs" as jealous Fiona calls them.

You'll look fine once T rolls through your system. You're pretty damn andro... although you're a bit too thin, really. As soon as you're on T, start eating protein and start building up muscle mass. Do not fall into the anorexia meme, it can fuck up your body and mess up your transition down the road.

I've been. It was pre-transition, though, and my gay acquaintances liked to invite me over without telling me if it was stripper night or not.

Go with a fag friend if you have one, or at least ask him which ones seem trans friendly... and which nights are for "events" like drag, or leather night... verify it on the club website if it has one.

Also, consider writing "I'm trans, is that cool?" somewhere so you can roll up your sleeve, or lift your shirt to have an interested party read it.

Or business cards with that plus a throw-away email.

How shit of an idea is it to get on anti-depressants
>>
>>7911556
really, really shit idea

I went on anti-depressants and it was the worst mistake of my life

try other things like simply improving your diet, or getting more exercise

you could even start practicing basic breathing meditation or a new creative hobby

anything but "Happy Pills" okay Anon?
>>
>>7911570
Worst mistake how? what happened?
>>
>>7911578
Became basically a zombie while I was on them, ruined all my friendships due to being emotionally disconnected. Suffered humiliating side effects. Almost killed myself and certainly never helped myself.
>>
>>7911601

what happened in both these situations?

Then why were you prescribed them! are you sure they weren't any help?

You sound like some facebook wine mom. Depression can't just be "meditated away." It's a condition where a gland in your brain doesn't produce enough of a type of hormone. Very much comparable to how diabetes affects the pancreas. And while it can be caused either genetically, just a malfunction during the aging process, or by outside factors, it very much needs to be treated by a medical professional.

If someone isn't feeling right on their meds, they should let their doctor know so they can adjust dosages or try an alternative method under medical supervision. The pills aren't "happy pills" because they're not supposed to make you happy. In fact, you'll never feel 100% cured because it's an illness that lasts a lifetime. What the pills are supposed to do is enable you to feel something, anything at all, without having to resort to self-destructive behaviors when paired with therapy as a treatment. And by convincing someone to never seek help, you might be saving them from the discomfort of medication but also at the risk of them ending their life because they fell into an entirely preventable mental state.

People like you piss me the fuck off. All that mindset does is prevent people from getting help they need.

>inb4 "but teh chemicals! chemicals r bad guiz!"
Because I know that's where you're going to go next with your shitty arguments. Your type always does. I hope your mental illness drives you to suicide. It'd be a fitting end for you.
>>
>>7911601
What type of meds?
>>
>>7911607
>what happened in both these situations?
Side effects were sweats, shakes and constipation

I think the other part is pretty fucking self explanatory

>Then why were you prescribed them!
Maybe doctors are not as smart as you think they are? I told my doctor they were not helping me. My dosage was doubled, then when I still reported no improvement, TRIPLED.

I believe the big pharmaceutical companies supplying hospitals incentivize doctors to prescribe these expensive "medicines", and in large doses.

>are you sure they weren't any help?
Trust me, I am 100% sure. What helped was when I stopped taking that poison.
>>
>>7911609
SSRIs have shown to not help against depression except for very severe cases according to Danish research. You have a very simplistic view on depression. I agree with >>7911570 That diet and exercise needs to be in check before considering meds since both play major factor to hormone production in the first place. meditation has also shown to affect production of serotoning and to lower stress hormones in the body.
>>
>>7911609
>it very much needs to be treated by a medical professional
Professionals only made my problems worse. You should not trust them so much. Many people are better off dealing with depression without the so-called medicine a professional will tell you to go buy.

>Depression can't just be "meditated away." It's a condition where a gland in your brain doesn't produce enough of a type of hormone.
I used to be very depressed. I was proscribed anti-depressants. I took the wine mom meditate it away mindset instead of taking them. I'm amazingly happier now. Not perfect but any pill that could do what I did with none would be considered a miracle cure.

>People like you piss me the fuck off. All that mindset does is prevent people from getting help they need.
He said he almost killed himself. Many others have. I might have done if I'd been given your advice and took it.

All it does it prevent people from getting help they need? All it did for me was potentially save my life.
>>
>>7911644
it was a medical vid of some doctor pulling loads of bandages out of a mtf's brand new hoohaa. Like someone giving birth to a mummy.

>>7911647
And your method almost took mine. I wasn't able to see a doctor until I was 18. The doctor was actually surprised how many suicide attempts I survived with untreated depression. Since being put on meds, I've been a lot better.

Look, maybe you were misdiagnosed. Maybe you had a shitty doctor. But you're mehod has no scientific research put into it and only works for a very small minority of people. Trying to sell it as a "one size fits all" is extremely dangerous because you're also encouraging others who are sick to abandon medical science and to use holistic methods without any professional supervision. You might as well be telling people to pray their transgender demons away. Because it amounts to the same effect.

And that belief of yours is enough that you would have had me kill myself. Thanks.
>>
>>7911670
>no scientific research
There is a ton of evidence that getting more exercise and a better diet should be the first thing to try.

Also, practicing basic breathing meditation through an online guide or whatever is not "holistic", it is about discipline.
>>
>>7911690
You still haven't produced any research results showing that the medical community thinks we should do away with psychiatric medication. Why not just throw people in asylums again while were at it. I'm sure they'd love their daily meditiation time.

>>7911688
Because instead of talking with your doctor about how your one single type of medication wasn't working out, you decided to say "fuck it" and got lucky. And now you're trying to tempt other kids into testing that luck because you assume everyone fits into your cookie cutter mold.

As if the doctors you trust so much ever stopped doing that... it's just called the "psych ward" now instead of the "asylum". It's always been a prison and they will always put the most unusual people there, forcing their "medicine" on them.

Not a bad idea. I'm on them, it's alright. Though it's been like a year and a half and I can't really remember what I was like without them. But I've been dealing okay with some trying times so I assume they're good. Honestly I'd like therapy or counselling and gender clinic access but I think the facilities for that are pretty shit round here so I'm outta luck there.

Not the same guy (I'm the one who takes the horse tranquilizer) but I was forced to go to therapy when I was 17.

> taking such a broad conclusion from only one study that you can't even cite the authors or analyze for statistical or methodological errors.

lol do u even science.

Also, that's not even true, SSRIs and SNRIs are mostly for mild-moderate depression, but it's not uncommon for severe depression cases to be undiagnosed Bipolar II where hypomania manifests as hyperfunctioning and need mood stabilizers instead.

Also, if you're gonna be anti-meds, at least cute the whole "CBT has been conclusively proven across multiple studies to be just as effective as drugs!" and conveniently forget the part where most practitioners use them together because you know, the effects stack. And a lot of the time neither one independently.

>>7911690
This is true, depression as a symptom can result from things other than Major Depressive Disorder, including a vitamin B12 deficiency, so make sure you're actually physically healthy before pursuing the mental health avenue. Meditation/mindfulness is used as part of CBT and does often work, although if you're taking the behavioral route you should see an actual practitioner to actually get real CBT. Although again, you're overgeneralizing and not citing.

This entire debate is stupid, depression comes from a lot of sources and doesn't have any single cute, and drugs aren't lolbad, but it's also not good medical advice to take any kind of medication if you aren't sure you need it. Signed, actual Psych Ph.D student.

I do all of those things. The reason I'm considering drugs is because my depression worsened and I've stopped exercising as a result.
>>
>>7912022
If you're already doing all that and your depression is still getting worse, then maybe you should try antidepressants (as much as I hate to say it...)

Just be careful, those drugs are not to be taken lightly!!

It's not an all-or-nothing choose, mate. You can give it a try and find out if it works for you. Chances are you won't have an adverse reaction and if you do, it'll more likely make you physically sick. I'd say give it a go.
>>
>>7911726

i accidentally took zoloft once (not my prescription but i had doctors before then try to talk me into antidepressants and ones after too), 3 days of pure hell i came really close to killing myself...

i'm not gonna say they don't work for some people (they do, but a lot of people don't seem better off just dulled), but other shit does work for depression too... and meditation does have a lot of positive effects, it might not fix depression but it does help someone dealing with it gain perspective and a level of control without the risks of antidepressants... don't discount it

>>7912022

what kind of meditation are you trying? third eye meditation is better for perspective changes and whatnot than just breathing exercises or some shit...
>>
>>7912145
what is third eye meditation?
>>
>>7912153

meditation that stimulates your pineal gland (your "third eye") an ex taught me it... she was into a lot of shit like that, anyway do it right and it can feel extremely euphoric in addition to helping sort out your perspective and your capability when it comes to dealing with some shit... also helps with doing shit like living in the moment, and being able to do shit like focus on what's in front of you without attaching all your feelings to any given second (part of what can make depression worse is the hyperfocus and inability to separate from those feelings, at least that's true for me)
>>
>>7912145
Diving right into third eye meditation could be dangerous without a guide though. The third eye can drive you crazy if you are unprepared. Better to do guided meditation if you want to open your third eye.
>>
>>7912153
Putting things in his vag.
>>
>>7912153

+ basically what you do is close your eyes and focus on the spot where your third eye is (if you can stand it "look" towards it, some people can't deal with the sensation but it does make it easier), breathe and concentrate try to push everything out of your head... you're gonna have passing thoughts, don't hold onto them and don't worry about experiencing them either (this part is hard at first but eventually you'll get the hang of it and won't dwell on them) cuz that's the part of meditation a lot of people get stuck on...

anyway eventually you'll feel pressure, when you feel that pressure you have to focus on it and think of it opening at its center... do that enough and eventually you'll feel it, it's an unmistakable feeling and can be extremely euphoric

there's mental balancing exercises and ways to "ground" yourself first, that are supposed to help, but from my understanding they aren't necessary and i was only taught a pagan one and well... idk your personal feelings on giving pagan shit a go just to give it a go... personally i'll try anything like that cuz i don't believe it makes a difference what it is and it's just a matter of directing your mind in one way or another + i know that shit can be offputting for a variety of reasons)

my ex recommended starting it before bed, and i did for about a month before i got full on results, but yeah...

i'm not disregarding your possible need to medicate btw, cuz whether or not you do that this is still a worthwhile experience
>>
>>7912186

i think people overstate that shit personally... in my case its been nothing but positive, which is why i recommend it... and idk, i did just kinda dive in... my ex gave me a brief description of what to do and i figured i had nothing better to do

works better than other forms of meditation and if he's already practiced with those i don't see the harm... besides i suggested finding a way to balance himself first i just wasn't gonna share the one i know cuz that one is rooted in something non secular
>>
>>7912186

+ he's unlikely to even get it on his first try but by working towards doing it he'll build up the ability to get through it... besides if he finds it unsettling i've got some stories for him that might help him get his shit together

it's not like it prevents you from seeking help if you fuck your shit up... and really the chances of that are low, and the fear mentality is part of what can make that shit a reality...

better to dive in ignorant and positive than be choked up on negativity and fears of "what if?" when you do something like that at any rate...
>>
>>7912173
>>7912207
Thanks. I'll get into some reading on it. T b h I'd rather try this first before checking meds out. It's a point of last resort for me.
>>
>>7912239

np... if you have any questions or anything while you're doing it or about how that shit turns out let me know, i'll tell you what i can...

but i would consider doing that while talking to a doctor if shit's really bad... you don't gotta jump on meds or anything, but if you're ready to off yourself and need help don't do this instead...
>>
>>7912256

+ instead of getting help i mean... it can and does make a difference, but i don't wanna tell you not to do something that could help you and to only try this method instead...

that euphoric sensation though... i love it as much as i love heroin and sex, no shit
>>
>>7912256
I already have a shrink, so no worries about that. Thanks, though. I will.
>>
>>7912277

alright, good luck with it then... don't get discouraged if it takes a while to fully hit that point... just keep trying every day, and don't overthink the people going crazy shit... antidepressants could also make someone do crazy shit, shit i spent about 3 days finding ways to hurt myself that wouldn't leave any permanent damage cuz i would've killed myself otherwise after the zoloft...

i accidentally hurt myself at one point realized the pain was the only thing that felt normal next to the fucked up numbness i was feeling so yeah... that shit was a bad time
>>
>>7912308

+ it was the worst thing i ever put in my body btw, no shit... i've never felt so disconnected from everything... it was fucked up

i think the only reason i didn't kill myself was cuz i knew the half life so i knew i just had to hold out and it'd stop once it got to the point where it dipped below the amount needed to feel it... i've had bad highs, but never as bad as taking that shit

out of everything i've ever put in my body antidepressants are the only thing i wouldn't give another chance...

i definitely had an extreme bad reaction to them though, like it'd be unlikely it'd get you that level of fucked... i had every bad symptom pretty much... i couldn't eat, sleep, i felt mentally and physically numb and detached, my insides felt like they were shaking and it made me anxious as fuck... i just desperately needed it to stop, and it felt like it wasn't gonna... it made shit not feel real, and just in the worst way possible not in the fun pcp way or some shit...

pain was literally the only thing that seemed to make some of those sensations stop, and it got to a point where it really just became hurt myself in a way that isn't gonna leave a mark for a while so that it chills out or feel that way and probably kill myself cuz it was unbearable... even 15 minutes of what i felt was way too long...

on the bright side no one knew what was going on... i hid it, and was able to deal with it quietly so shit worked out well enough

cisbro reporting, yell at me AMA whatever, ily little shits

tip of the day is always have a change of clothes in a bag in your car. nothing fancy, jeans, shirt, belt, socks, underwear, belt. maybe a pair of sneakers. you'll end up using it more than you'd expect, and kick yourself when you don't have it and need it.

>>7913306

I can tell you what it's like to be cis without trying to be a douchebag. I can't tell you what it's like to have conversations like that. I can offer the same advice I always do for tough talks- be straightforward, but nice, and make sure she understands that this is something you'd like her to take seriously, just for the next ten minutes. if you're honest and kind, you've done the best you can. if she freaks out, there's nothing you could do to prevent it. this last part is important- sooner before later, for her sake and yours regardless of outcome.

for me pic related is long hair, I'm a short fade guy. if it's what you mean by it too, make sure you can put it into something like this for formal occasions. you can always mess it up and style it differently for everyday life, but every haircut you get, ask yourself if you'd feel comfortable being best man, going to a funeral, or getting a job interview at a decent company wearing it.

I'll be brutally honest, if it goes below the nape, it's really damn hard to do anything with.

Get that hairstyle back maaaang, it really suits you.

You look like a chill indie guy who listens to too much Modest Mouse.

Overall you haven't changed a lot, but that's mostly because you looked pretty masculine to begin with.

Depends on the area, hence "consider".

I mean, I am Canadian... maybe we just really are nicer people on average. Excluding our serial killers, rapists, and gang members.

Nah I think he's saying that you wouldn't be able to spot at FTM even if you were looking at one because they often look like young DYELs or girls at the gym.

Any really /fit/bros here? I wanna get swole as fuck. The doctor who perscribed me T was a short dumpy little dude and when I mentioned how I wanted to build some muscle he started lecturing me on how FTMs can never get jacked because of tendon concerns. Anyone else hear anything about this or experience problems? I see pictures of buffed out guys all the time I'm starting to think the doc just has something against gains.

Not a bad idea
I was on them for a bit before my insurance cocked up on me and I got weird about going back. Coming down from them was absolute balls, but it was a good bit of perspective. Made me a little spacy while i was on them, though. I got super more social, it was a good experience overall. YMMV, everyone reacts differently to medication and there's tons out there.

Mostly just be aware that it won't be an instant fix, no matter what your medication ends up being. The brain is too weird for that, they'll try you on something and see how it goes for a few weeks.
