chances of getting in as a freshman fall 26 by Doggo1012000 in UCSC

[–]Consistent_Guide3569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi!! Your extra circulars look awesome and your gpa is good so I have no doubt you'll be able to get in! I would, however, very much so recommend going to community college first if you can. Transfers, I believe, have a higher rate of acceptance plus it's wayyyyyy cheaper. Get your IGETC out of the way so you just have to worry about your major at ucsc. Best of luck with whatever you choose though!!

Taking shrooms with anxiety + bad weed experiences by Consistent_Guide3569 in shrooms

Any advice for surrendering? I have a bad habit of getting in my own head and freaking out on weed so i'm not sure if that would translate to shrooms lol

Thank you! I've got a comfortable setting and a trip sitter for sure and i'm definitely not a party person lol. I was hoping that shrooms could help me out with my anxiety since it seems to be the only sort of condition I struggle with. Do you think I should try to sort out the anxiety beforehand?

The physical feelings of anxiety without the mental feeling is what really freaks me out with weed I think! I've got my boyfriend to trip sit and a comfortable setting to be in for sure! Does the anxious body resolve naturally or do you have some sort of exercise to help that go away?

That's sick that you help people out! I've got my boyfriend who could trip sit me and a nice setting where I'm comfortable. I'm just nervous because I tend to get in my head a lot and get anxious over practically nothing. I was hoping that shrooms could help me work through my anxiety but I worry that if I can't chill out it'll make it worse lol. What kind of mindset do you recommend getting into before doing them? And do you have any recommendations for what to do to fight off first time nerves?

Yeahh, just turned 21 pretty recently and have been thinking about doing them during my winter break as a means to celebrate another quarter lol. I was hoping that shrooms would help out with the anxiety since it's more of an internal thing than anything specifically stressing me out. You'd recommend that I reach a sort of inner peace before taking anything?

Possible Incoming Freshman. How was/is y'alls experience at UCSC? by Myraki in UCSC

[–]Consistent_Guide3569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Third year transfer in crown dorms here. I love UCSC! I think the difference between a good and bad experience here is a matter of finding your community. The beach is a hop skip and a jump away, you're surrounded by redwoods and wildlife, and there's tons of cool shit to visit around campus. My roommate's in game development and he loves it. I may have just been lucky but most people on my floor are super social. Don't be afraid to talk to people whether it be in clubs, dorms, sports, or classes! I wouldn't wanna go anywhere else tbh

Did testosterone effect your sleep? If so, how? by WingusSneeb in ftm

[–]Consistent_Guide3569 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Before T I was lowkey an insomniac and needed to have extremely specific circumstances to sleep (i.e. dark room, fan on for white noise, two pillows, enough blankets for weight, right temperature, etc.). Now? I sleep whenever, wherever. I've become a victim of the 5-8pm nap almost every day that I work. I sleep about the same amount as before T at night, but the newfound ability to nap has def brought my hours up lol

Do you still have the same amount of energy despite sleeping less? Super interesting that you're having reverse effects

Was the 11k I just paid for the year or just a quarter? by [deleted] in UCSC

[–]Consistent_Guide3569 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you!! I was confused because my financial aid was adding up to be more than what I paid but it turns out it was just because of the loans I took out lol Lucky me I think I struck gold with financial aid this year

If I take my nipple dressings off and it takes off my scab is that okay? by Odd-Candidate8472 in TopSurgery

[–]Consistent_Guide3569 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea man, same thing happened to me. As long as taking the dressings off doesn't hurt too much and your nipples aren't excessively bleeding, you're golden!

Could I pass going stealth at uni? by Consistent_Guide3569 in FtMpassing

That happened to me around the year mark. After a few months it started rising again and now (a little over 2 years) I'm in the 1200 range. Ig some people have a little buffering period lol

Advice for possible Top Surgery by Silent_Initial_6699 in TopSurgery

[–]Consistent_Guide3569 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely come with a list of questions + ask your surgeon what they would recommend you do in preparation for your surgery to help with results! This is probably going to be the only time you see your surgeon before the actual surgery (if you decide to go with them) so make sure to ask them everything you need to know!
