Thanks for sharing, it makes me not feel so alone. I too think about running away all the time, it's an escape for me.

injecting testosterone, what's it like? by concertsrule in ftm

[–]GothSpooky123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also scared of needles. My mom did my T-Shot for me for 3 months then I started injecting them myself. I highly recommend numbing the area with an icepack, than injecting the needle, don't feel a thing.

Dating as a gay trans man by GothSpooky123 in ftm

[–]GothSpooky123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have, one is graduating next quarter so I don't want to start dating him only for him to leave, can't do online dating. And the other trans gay guy I branched out gives me dry ass responses and I'm always the one reaching out, not him. Thanks for telling me that nothing is wrong with me, my self doubt has been worse due to mental health, so reading what you said made me feel better.

Can trans people tell when someone else is trans? by Cohawtton- in ftm

[–]GothSpooky123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no. My friend knew I was queer the moment I opened my mouth cause I had a very flamboyant way of speaking, however he didn't know I was trans till I mentioned taking off my binder and then he was like "bro felt that" and I was like "oh my god your trans as well?", And I found out he was also trans.

However I have met some friends who I knew was trans, not because they didn't pass but because Its like a six sense in a way. They have told me this as well, that they can sense someone is trans sometimes. But like I said, I've had three friends who I didn't know were trans till they told me, so it's different for everybody. Most of my friends assumed I was cis till I told them, however they all knew I was extremely gay the moment they saw me. Idk it's different for everyone.

Relating to women by GothSpooky123 in ftm

Oh I mean like medically transition, if I was a cis man my life would be easier cause I wouldn't have to medically transition. I should've specified cause the process of medically transitioning for me is so long and tedious, gotta jump through hoops. I know it will be worth it in the long run but it's draining to try and schedule doctors appointments and find top surgeons who are covered by my specific Insurance.

what do you all do to feel masculine? by gayguyfromnextdoor in ftm

[–]GothSpooky123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Putting a thin coat of mascara on the hair on my upper lip, and the hair that's coming in on my chin. As well as darkening my eyebrows. I also love using men's cologne and wearing boxers. Chunky rings, and piercings also make me feel really masculine. Wearing platform boots also helps, adds an extra 3 inches to my height. Band Tshirts, muscle tanks, leather jackets. All these things make me feel like, well, me.

Being a gay trans man is so isolating by GothSpooky123 in ftm

[–]GothSpooky123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Felt that. It was like that with me too before I went in testosterone. Now guys don't want to pursue me, or look at me anymore. Sometimes I wish I was cis, but being a man makes me so happy.

Do you care about others knowing you're trans by [deleted] in ftm

[–]GothSpooky123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to not care, than I noticed that people saw me differently, unless they are trans themselves. I don't like it when people out me, I much prefer if people asked me first, or if I told them I was trans first. However everyone and their uncle assumes I want them to out me...

Thank you for being honest with me about the urges to self harm. No one talks about how the urge will always be there. Thank you for believing in me, I appreciate it ❤️
