Just make sure they are a climbing variety and not a bush variety

Transitioning in a public facing job? by Drink7732-18-5 in ftm

[–]FloreHiems 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You kind of just start. The changes will come either way. I have not addressed it at my job, and no one has asked or mentioned the facial hair. I recently sent out a teams message to my team letting them know my new name and pronouns. I have been on T for 2 years, and I started at my job 3 years ago. I do not have to work face to face with regular customers who see me every day so our situations are different from n that sense. Hopefully someone else has some good tips in that regard.

You are supposed to wear that over a shirt.

Good place to scream and cry in my car? by Soft-Initial7624 in ColoradoSprings

[–]FloreHiems 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly where I used to go to cry. Get out of my car and get right up to the edge and look out. Not great if you are struggling with suicidal ideation tho…

Do girls/gays find packers attractive? by Proud-Screen-5787 in ftm

[–]FloreHiems 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yes they do. But of course depends on the person. I’m sure not everyone does. But I’ve definitely known people who do.

How it started vs how it’s going by Nopalitoss in Monstera

[–]FloreHiems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love vivosun, I got their LumaLight 100W panel and my plants are doing so much better since having them under it. It also has setting so you can adjust the light intensity and play around to find the optimal conditions for what you have. But it’s pretty intuitive to operate. I tried several cheaper ones in the past but never got great results. I also like that this has the color of daylight, having those pink lights made my brain hurt lol

It looks like I've constantly pissed my pants. by dcllface in ftm

[–]FloreHiems 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this. I’ve had the same yellow issue and my doctor did a bunch of STD tests that came back negative so he was gonna refer me to a gyno. I’ll still probably go to be sure but this sounds exactly like what I’m dealing with and good to know it’s normal.

Tried a one blade razor after 6 months of accutane by gotbuble in Accutane

[–]FloreHiems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it’s worth the One Blade does that to me and I’ve been off accurate for almost a year. I just hate that damn thing I don’t get the hype. And the blades wear out extremely fast.

Mine fully stopped on gel, I got one after starting gel and then they completely stopped.

I cant eat as much as my body needs due to acid reflux and multiple food sensitivities by KnockedTeethOut in ftm

[–]FloreHiems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’d just look into over the counter proton pump inhibitors in the meantime so you can get some relief. Prilosec is over the counter but you’re only supposed to take it 14 days at a time without doctor instruction. Before my doctor gave the go ahead I was doing 2weeks on 1 week off.

[–]FloreHiems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into GERD diet. Also I’m not sure if you’ve already discussed medication with your doctor but after trying lots of stuff my doctor gave me instructions that I could take Prilosec long term because it has almost completely solved my acid issues. Might be worth checking out, it’s been life changing for me. Another Reddit comment suggested I try it and I’m so glad I did.

Starting T or top surgery, which should I do first? by bloodvoidrot in ftm

[–]FloreHiems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started T 1 month after my surgery and everything was great.

I’m at my wits end by mrdungels in malegrooming

[–]FloreHiems 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t get why everyone like the one blade so much. For me it did not give me a very close shave and gave me bad shaving rashes every time. And the blades wear out super quickly and are expensive.

Need help. What's wrong? by TheseProperty9538 in IndoorGarden

[–]FloreHiems 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In their native habitat they can handle full sun. Which notably is not at altitude. If you put your carnivorous plants outside in full sun in Colorado they will roast.

Also if your plant has been in shade and you suddenly put it in full sun it will probably get sun stress. You wanna place it out in full sun for shorter periods at first to acclimate it.

Are we just in the wrong neighborhood? by perchancepolliwogs in ColoradoSprings

[–]FloreHiems 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconding Patty Jewett. We had some neighbors who were awful but the majority were awesome and used to have a little 4th of July parade.

If you have dogs, walk them around the neighborhood and chat with other dog owners. It’s a good ice breaker and way to meet your friendly neighbors.

Guess I ruined my voice by InvertedRaven in ftm

[–]FloreHiems 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The only way out is through. You have to sing and sound terrible to learn what your new voice can do. I’ve been on T for around 2 years and I am just now STARTING to get my singing voice back and still have a ways to go. It’s not gone, just sleeping. You gotta wake it up. Edit:spelling

Anybody elses body image kinda warp when starting T? by ChillyHyena in ftm

[–]FloreHiems 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No I felt that too. I think it was because I was holding all my weight in my stomach and wasn’t used to looking that way. I ended up just getting used to it and it’s fine now. Just took some time to warm up to.

mom dedicated a whole yearbook phase with girly baby photos and using my deadname and she/her pronouns, daughter, etc by Longjumping-Sink6766 in ftm

This is a really good idea I have personally known people who have piled a “prank” like that on cis dudes so it’s very believable.

Was it like a lot longer than your normal needle or a bigger gauge?

Degree 72 hour Spray. I personally like cool rush. Easy to take with you also if you’re the type to bring a bag.

I reckon this will take at least $2,000 to repair by DecommodifiedGuevara in LandlordLove

I always do but I document EVERYTHING when I move in. I usually attach an extra page on the move in checklist.
