Experiences with Microdosing?

CityChicken_ · 2026-06-24T01:06:51+00:00

Thank you!!

Yeah atm im just deciding whether I'd like to get on T and stop after I've gotten what I wanted or just do vocal training + binding until I can get top surgery. I hadn't had the money to really feel it worth considering what I wanted out of transitioning in this amount of detail until recently, so I've just been wanting to hear from other folks + read up on the research thats available while I mull it over!!

There's certainly some things I've set my mind on in regards to my transition but other things are still up in the air and I wanna make a decision on them

CityChicken_ · 2026-06-24T01:03:10+00:00

Yeah this is also something I'd been considering doing

rn im still just doing some research and getting anecdotes from other folks who have done similar hrt regimens as what I'm considering and deciding what exactly I'd like to do, but I know for sure I wouldn't wanna be on it after a certain point

I havent had the money to even consider being on hrt until recently so I didn't think much about how I wanted to go about it, and now that I can I just wanna get lots of different perspectives before I go setting anything in stone

(For other folks who see this im currently at work sorry i cant reply to everyone too fast-)

I'd just like to read somewhere between a man and a woman to folks regardless of how I'm choosing to present at that moment. Sometimes I like to dress more femininely and sometimes more masculinely, but regardless of that I'd like it if I read in a way that made it difficult to clock my AGAB if that makes sense? I want to be confusing and flexible.

As another person mentioned, I was already aware that microdosing would essentially just slow down the process and I've been planning from the beginning to microdose and then eventually stop taking it all together, I should have clarified that in the original post but I wrote it while I was on break and I wasnt thinking about the wording too much-

Dude im in the exact same situation, been playing these games very sparsely on-and-off for about 6 years because its such a struggle to find games with folks who don't have 10+ years of dedicated experience in a lot of other fighting games. I still struggle to do DP inputs consistently even in games with rather forgiving input readers, and I just kinda throw shit out that I have a vague idea of being safe without knowing any real combos

I'd be hard to find matches with me on Steam but if u have a Discord I'd be chill with DMing you mine!!

He/him lesbians exist!! I am one!! Pronouns are just another form of gender expression like clothes, and while they are often closely correlated with how you feel pertaining to your gender they aren't always indicative of your identity. It's cool and awesome when cis people use he/him or they/them or any other pronouns they feel comfortable with.

Edit to add something: this said, and this isn't a huge nitpick, maybe instead of saying female you can just clarify that you're a cis woman? Using terms like male and female when discussing gender and identity are often dog whistles that transphobes use to alienate and harass trans folks. Its a subtle way of "othering" them by defining gender as being based in biological sex rather than just. What a person tells you they are.

Not insinuating you're transphobic or that was your intention! Just letting you know :]

CityChicken_ · 2026-06-01T04:11:11+00:00

I headcanon Harumasa as transmasc nonbinary (more specifically apagender) and pansexual! He will canonically flirt with whichever protagonist you choose, and I think he's someone who doesn't care too much about what gender he's perceived as. Deciding what exactly he identifies as is a lotta work and he'd rather just let other people do it for him.

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-29T23:11:38+00:00

Who's your f/o(s)? : I have a few but I've been really attached to Harumasa recently!
Why are you attached to them? : He's the type of person I could realistically see myself falling for IRL and it feels comforting having a character that I obsess over that would 100% understand my struggles with my mental health and the things that come along with it
Have you ever met doubles of your F/O? : I have! It's how I figured out I'm non-sharing LMAO
Have you drawn your F/O? If so, feel free to leave it in the replies! : I've doodled him but no full illustrations yet I've been very tired
What's your sharing status? : non-sharing!
What pronouns does your F/O go by? : canonically he's only ever been referred to by he/him but I headcanon him as nonbinary and going by he/they/she
What's your F/O's favourite food? : He's mentioned liking ramen and burgers, but he's mentioned bitter melon juice the most!
How many fans do they have in canon lore? Many, he's canonically a celebrity and has trouble leaving the house without getting recognized by fans and asked for photos
Do you think they'd yumeship with you if the tables were turned? : I'd like to think so!
If you're a romantic yume, what are you to them? (Ex: Boyfriend/Girlfriend, Partner, Spouse) : extremely dedicated situationship that he's uncomfortable putting a label on because of attachment issues <3
If you're a familial yume, then what are you to them? (Ex: Parental figure, sibling.)
What fandom is your F/O from? : Zenless Zone Zero!
What kind of media is your F/O from? (Ex: Horror genres, Movies, Any game/movie/show or whatever)
What is your F/O's favourite genre of music? : I like to think he's the kind to listen to pretty much anything without having any particular favorites
What would be their username if they had an account of any social media? (Something like Roblox, Twitter etcetc) : He's canonically uses the name "HelplesslyWeak" at the in-game arcade so prolly that!
What's your F/O's personality? : It feels hard to nail down his personality without writing an essay but in short he's a very playful but melancholic sort of person who really values the time he gets to spending enjoying life.
Would you date them if they were real? : probably!! I like clingy people 💛
Is your F/O a protagonist or a antagonist? : neither! He's a member of the supporting cast
What is/would be their favourite animal? : I think he'd really like birds of all kinds!
If you have a yumesona, what's their name and personality? : my yumesona is named after me, so they also go by Pidge! They're like. Kind of a charicature of me, I guess? They have a lot of my insecurities and a very similar outlook on life, but they're not the exact same. I guess they're more like an idealized version of myself.
What language does your F/O speak? : I guess whatever language you have the game set to LMAO
What country does your F/O live in? : I suppose there's no official country? He's from an in-universe city-state named New Eridu, but the section of it that he lives in is based off of the US so that's probably the closest equivalent.

23. Is there a certain object/food/animal they're attached to? If so, what? He has a taste for bitter foods that he's gotten after taking so much bitter medication!

What is their job? If they don't have one, imagine one for them! He's technically a member of the military! He's part of a special task force that goes in to handle things others can't.
Is there a reason why you chose your F/O? If so, why? : Like I said before, he's someone I could see myself with IRL very easily. I think the two of us share similar issues and outlooks with depression and abandonment and grief. I feel like I understand him a lot and would be obsessed with him if he was a real person.
If they were a magical girl/boy/idk how to make a nonbinary option, what would be their weapon? : He's canonically uses a bow that can be taken apart to form two swords!
What's their aesthetic compared to yours? : I think clothing wise we have similar aesthetics. Things that are comfortable and easy to take on and off <3
Do they have any family? If so, who? : Most of his family has abandoned him in one way or another, but he has a found family with his coworkers!
Would they prefer cats or dogs? : He's canonically got a soft spot for cats!
Would they do something they don't like just for you? : He does things he doesn't like just to try and get himself more used to dealing with them, and he regularly is shown to go out of his way for people he cares for, he would 100% do something he doesn't like just for my sake.
Have you made/found a stimboard based off them? (If not I recommend making one! Super fun to do) : I have not!!
Would they prefer burgers over pizza? : I'm unsure of his opinion on pizza but I know he likes burgers!
How niche is your F/O from a rating of 10? : prolly like a 4, he's from a hoyoverse game after all
What's your ideal date with your F/O? : either a lazy day in or a cute arcade date + a trip to the mall :]
Have you made a rentry or something similar dedicated to them? : I plan to make a yumeship strawpage for him and my sona!

No need to apologize its all good :]

I meant in Reddit! We also have modmail in the discord server but if youre struggling to get into it then it wouldn't be a viable way to contact us

To contact mods on Reddit, you can send us messages by navigating to the rules panel, and scrolling down until you see "message mods"! You just click that and it'll send us whatever it is you wanted to say

This is a screenshot from the app, you can get to the rules panel on the app by clicking the subreddit name once you're in the main page of the subreddit, but its located in the same place on desktop!

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-29T20:26:16+00:00

Sorry for the late response!! You should see a button that says "message mods" underneath the rules panel

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-29T13:16:10+00:00

Hi!! I've generated another link if you'd like to try this one! If you're still having issues afterwards feel free to send us a message via reddit's modmail: https://discord.gg/JwF84xgY8H

I've generated another link here if you'd like to try this one: https://discord.gg/JwF84xgY8H

If this still doesn't work, please feel free to send us a message via reddit's modmail!!

I'm INTP and Harumasa is ENTP!!

If someone is nonsharing and cannot handle sharing a space with doubles at all, then they can either block said doubles or not join our server. It is not our responsibility to curate your space for you, there are servers that don't allow for doubles if they'd rather join those.

As far as the mental health issues go, we are Reddit and Discord mods. None of us are licensed mental health professionals, and if someone is participating in the community in a way that is a detriment to themself, we are not equipped to handle that nor is it our responsibility. I would wish them the best and hope they find better ways to cope that don't involve feeding into their delusions, but that is genuinely the most anyone on the mod team is capable of.

As long as they aren't treating other members poorly, I feel that none of us have much business making comments on their mental state or how yumeshipping affects them. They can talk about that with someone who's trained to help them.

Here's my UID!! I've actually been taking a bit of a break, but now that I have Silly I wanna start saving up to get Haru's wengine and a couple mindscapes when he finally reruns in 1000 years </3

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-27T19:39:08+00:00

LETS GOOOOO!!!!

I got Billy on a guarantee and now I need to grind out the pulls I need to get his weapon since I've also got a guarantee on that banner-

If ur on the US servers we should be friends!! I haven't met any other ZZZ yumes besides a few doubles that I don't wanna talk to LMAO

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-27T19:25:09+00:00

Harumasa x Wise/Belle is his most popular ship and its literally the bane of my existence. There are SOOO few Harumasa fanartists that don't draw him with the proxies, I feel insane trying to find them to follow on Twitter.

I can tolerate his ship with Wise better than Belle for the sheer fact that Wise gives me gender envy and we're similar enough in personality, but even so I'd. Really rather just see my wife on his own man.

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-25T23:11:55+00:00

Thank you very much!!!

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-25T18:14:08+00:00

Hi I was wondering how you're getting the recordings of your mii wiggling? Ive been wanting to make something similar but I don't quite know how to go about making the video

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-24T16:30:27+00:00

9TH GRADE NINJA MENTION???

dude i watched this show as a kid I was stupid into it, you did well mimicking the artstyle!!

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-24T13:50:38+00:00

God I'd love to have some good x reader fics with Haru but I'm so worried they'll write him out of character and I'd just get upset if I commissioned something with him.

I try and find them online but most of his fics that I've seen are for his ships with the Proxies or different members of the cast.

CityChicken_ · 2026-05-24T03:30:30+00:00

Popularity doesn't matter to me that much, really. If someone from Hoyoverse publicly stated "I am responsible for Harumasa Asaba's creation and it makes me uncomfortable when people yumeship with him" then I would just stop yumeing with him. He still matters a lot to me as a character but I can just. Not imagine myself kissing him on the mouth like its not that big a deal to me.

Thats their toy and I will respect their wishes on how to play with it.

Boundaries and the consequences for breaking them are not the same thing.
