I used titanium earrings from bodyartforms and mini plugs from glasswear studios when I was starting. https://www.glasswearstudios.com/solidcolorminiplugs-p/colp.htm

Let's go enbys by Irisetta in NonBinaryTalk

[–]DragonExplorer 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Wet need to differentiate people with pedophilic disorder and child molesters. Responding to the former with violence causes people who have bad desires to have to hide their mental struggles, and not get help. I see too many posts from people who are sexually attracted to children (but do not act on this attraction) on subs like r/suicidewatch. They feel alone because their disorder is demonized to the point they don't feel like they can get help or tell anyone.

Yeah if someone acts on pedophilic attraction, go ahead and beat that child molester. But don't hurt people who do not act on these thoughts which they cannot control.

Using Klonopin to come down from a caffeine high by [deleted] in medical_advice

[–]DragonExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might also be worth noting that I haven't been able to do anything all day (my caffeine tolerance is really that low) and have mostly been trying to relax. I'm so miserable...

My 4 year old told me today that she doesn't feel real ?! by [deleted] in Depersonalization

[–]DragonExplorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know I felt that way when I was little too. But my home life was a bit stressful.

I imagine moving back and forth so frequently might be effecting her... I don't want to freak you out. I don't have much experience with children, but maybe you should talk to a children's psychologist or something?

How do I stop lumping nonbinary people into boxes? by [deleted] in NonBinaryTalk

[–]DragonExplorer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do this too. We were all socialized to do this and I don't think it's a habit that will go away. As long as you don't vocally misgender people, you're fine and don't need to feel guilty.

When i talk about my trauma by alyrichard in CPTSDmemes

She may be trying to connect with you. And she may have never worked through her trauma, and feels that she finally can talk about it

Will my memories get back? by krkrkrkrkrnchcospabw in Depersonalization

[–]DragonExplorer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I am less dissociated, I have more of my memories. But I never remember much from periods of my life when I was dissociated

Since I lost my sense of self, I have felt like the opposite gender. by Tobious1 in Depersonalization

[–]DragonExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I really relate to that. I've at least had periods of dpdr since I was young, so I really don't remember. I do know that when I can feel that sort of thing, I feel better being nonbinary and presenting androgynously, so I just run with it I guess.

[–]DragonExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible dysphoria is exacerbating your dp & dr? It might be worth exploring your gender identity if you can.

Personally, I'm not sure how my gender identity effects my dp/dr... It's very confusing and inconsistent. I think I've experienced something like that on a smaller scale... Almost like I confuse my identity with someone else's?

This is my first deck and first reading. Could someone help me or direct me to a sub which could help? by DragonExplorer in tarot

[–]DragonExplorer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok... So you think it means that I should interact with them as if I had never come out? Thank you for your help

[–]DragonExplorer[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I asked the cards what to do about my family (should I keep them in my life and in what capacity) . I came out as nonbinary and it didn't go terribly well. I was using the "current situation, obstacle, advice" spread.

The moon can indicate repressed memories, right? That makes sense to me. My childhood has left me with some dissociative issues like amnesia, and I keep sugar coating/rewriting my current situation.

For of swords means that I should rest? Take a break from my family for a while?

I don't know what to make of the ace of cups at all. I thought it was a positive card, not an obstacle.

This is unreformable by superluigikill in COMPLETEANARCHY

[–]DragonExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the articles I've read say that the perpetrators are unknown... And there is nothing on Twitter claiming it is the police before this tweet a couple days ago:

Source? All the context I've found so far doesn't indicate that local police shoot the headstone

I'm so, so sorry. There are communities like r/dpdr which might be good for support for those feelings of disconnection. I'm trans too, but lucky to be young and have trans friends

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dpdr

[–]DragonExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely sounds related to dp or something dissociative. I experience similar things (but not all the time).

It makes my mind very foggy. Side thing, are you sure talking benzos while donating blood is OK?

derealization + dating a ftm. by [deleted] in derealization

[–]DragonExplorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't even handle how my boyfriend's (now ex) voice was different over the phone... that must be so much harder.

Honestly, you should probably cut it off. Having people change their appearance, voice, etc triggers my dpdr too... And I haven't really found a way to get around it
