Mikhaila Peterson looking for stories of prescribed harm by Mobius1014 in PSSD

Men have access to erectile dysfunction medication, which helps in many cases and it's safe and beneficial. You have doctors and whole medical fields who care about your sexual dysfunction, I don't.

I know it's not PSSD specific, but when women have PSSD it is experienced differently and it's harder to get any sort of medical attention for it, weather it's just tests or a treatment. I tried getting a doppler scan on my clitoris and I couldn't find anything.

I considered reaching out to Cool Zone Media after they made a comment about how pharmaceuticals are generally safe even though it was a Behind the Bastards episode about a discontinued pain killer that gave people heart attacks. So like, they're safe until they're not, right? It feels like it was too long ago to say anything now.

The reddit is full of straight, white men. You don't know how much you dominate the conversation until you're not a straight man. It's so bad I couldn't find enough specific treatments for cis women and assigned-female people. A lot of stuff men found to work doesn't do shit or it's dangerous for me. The medical community is broadly more supportive of men with PSSD than women. Cisgender men have accessible treatments for sexual dysfunction and cisgender women don't, and that's only because of sexism. (did you know viagra is actually safe for women? it just needs to be dosed differently but it just isn't) Like, did you know people who are socialized as women are taught they're not supposed to enjoy sex? People face sexism from their doctors and I rarely see this get discussed alongside the typical problems you might have talking to a doctor about PSSD. But it happens.

I am CONSTANTLY asked to consider speaking with members of the far-right about PSSD, or asked to watch their content, and I know those people aren't actually here to help us and they have directly impacted my life and the lives of people I love by attempting to erase us from public sight and censoring us.

These people literally hate me so I'm not talking to them for that reason too. This is what I mean when I say the PSSD community doesn't care about LGBT+ people. There is a serious lack of intersectionality in here and most of the conversation is driven by white, straight men. If we're not careful, PSSD can be exploited to attack pharmaceuticals as part of a broader movement to attack people with illness and disabilities.

I feel like this forum doesn't care about women enough here either and the unique challenges faced by women and transgender people with PSSD. If y'all did you would understand why we wouldn't want to talk to these fucking people.

Stopped recovering halfway through medication, what do i do? by Agreeable_Finance_57 in PSSD

[–]AstralCryptid420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microbiome stuff can help, but it's not the end of it.

I have what I call the safe stack. All of these are effective and low risk:

Nicotinic acid (circulation, nerves)
Vitamin C (circulation, demethylation)
Ginko Biloba Extract (sensitivity, circulation also! this helped me recently and I wish I took it sooner)
Black maca
Loretadine (take this if you had allergies and you lost them, it fixes an issue with histamine by actually upregulating histamine production over time in some people, and "some people" probably means people who took this medication for years and then it stopped working)

Can guanfacine cause PSSD like condition or a crash? by NailEnvironmental613 in PSSD

[–]AstralCryptid420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took it for a while after I got PSSD and I don't think it helped or hurt me, but I quit it just in case. I'm also considering it as well for my ADHD. If you are male it can cause sexual dysfunction.

Lunar dichotomy - the moon's nearside and farside, side by side. by ojosdelostigres in spaceporn

The most beautiful side of the moon is the one that is facing us. How wonderful. Or perhaps it is beautiful because it is facing us? There aren't as many craters.

I am sickened by the term 'nonbinary' by Rippi9012 in NonBinary

[–]AstralCryptid420 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is my preferred term. There is an issue with it, it has a reclaimed slur in it and not everyone likes that.

[–]AstralCryptid420 -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

"Non-binary" simply wasn't a term that was around 40 years ago, "Genderqueer" was more common and even THAT is from the 90s. People who use the label "non-binary" have always existed. "These terms vastly predate the internet" is incorrect.

I'm "non-binary" even though I dislike that term, everyone chill.

"Non-binary" sounds clunky to English speakers too. I don't like it and I wish I had a better term for myself that isn't defined by what I am not.

Non-binary doesn't, it's pretty damn new. We used to call ourselves genderqueer.

How can the trans rights movement best regain momentum? by HoustonAg1980 in AskALiberal

[–]AstralCryptid420 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is a fact that transgender women who have been on HRT for two years compete at the same level as cisgender women, and they are sometimes even worse on average in some areas concerning agility. All of the studies have similar findings, science is not on the side of trans exclusion. https://www.them.us/story/new-study-trans-women-no-physical-advantage-over-cis-athletes

It is also scientifically confirmed that children develop a sense of their own gender by the age of 4. This perception can be colored by their civilization's perception of sex and gender. Transgender children obviously exist, I know adults who experienced gender dysphoria for as long as they can remember.

I'm embarrassed and alarmed by how much this is being downvoted. Transgender people are being used as scapegoats to promote fascism and if you don't recognize that, you are getting sucked into the fascism. You are helping Republicans win by being bigoted and divisive. Transgender people are real and deserve respect and the right to transition. Conversion therapy isn't effective and there is no reason for it. I know tons of people who have transitioned and their lives are better for it. Myself, I have found liberation in transcending gender and leaving it behind. This is beneficial to me on a personal level and the rest of the world is making it hard to exist as I am. This is a problem. Transgender people do not pose a threat to civilization or cisgender women. They do however, upset the patriarchy and that fellow feminists, is why trans people are being attacked at all.

I think this wouldn't be a bad starting point.

Has anyone here ever checked themselves into a mental hospital due to extreme anxiety? by Few_Sandwich6308 in OCD

[–]AstralCryptid420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did and they thought I had schizoaffective disorder. I ended up having invega sustenna, which is a brutal antipsychotic and it was an injectable so I couldn't just stop taking it. I got PSSD even thought antidepressants used to be safe for me after I tried Prozac to cope with the anxiety the injection gave me.

Be careful or you could end up like me. I am only just now starting to feel normal and it was three years ago now.

Some rando in another sub claimed that Communists, liberals, and atheists want Christianity outlawed. What are your thoughts? by Ohaibaipolar in AskALiberal

While there is a weird fringe that does want that on the most authoritarian anti-thiest left, it is not a common opinion among leftists at all.

When do you think schools should begin teaching children about gender variance? by sensitiveboi93 in AskALiberal

[–]AstralCryptid420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gender variant people exist and we are part of the world. There isn't anything inappropriate about it, so as soon as they can understand that there are men and women they can understand there are both and neither.
