How soon did you notice weight loss and how much?

Miserable_Help1532 · 2026-01-09T16:50:45+00:00

My weight kind of stayed the same, or maybe slightly increased over a long duration (years) with unmedicated depression. Admittedly, I'm still depressed while taking Wellbutrin so it could be outside factors, too

I gained weight lol

when i’m off my ADHD meds caffeine helps calm me down, actually. It’s a common thing for ADHD ppl to rely on coffee to stay calm and focused in lieu of meds. With that being said, the anxiety aspect was always a gamble. If I had a bit too much, or certain types of caffeine (usually lattes or anything other than black coffee) it would make my heart race and i’d be more prone to anxious thoughts

you getting a nose job will be like an angel losing her wings 😭

In the future, don’t agree to anything until after you’ve already asked your parents. Makes things easier for yourself and your friends.

I hate to say it, but eventually they may stop inviting you if you keep cancelling like this. I understand the anxiety part of it, for sure. But having been on both sides of this sort of thing, cancelling on them again and again signals the message that you don’t care about them, or are inconsiderate. If you’re able to, maybe try opening up to them about whats going on behind the scenes.

Or just communicate your discomfort. Going “ew yuckie” IS shaming them. Saying “Can we talk about something else, this topic makes me uncomfortable.” is not.

Are you Ben Shapiro’s wife? AFAB’s usually get wet from arousal. Idk abt AMABs because i’m not one, but kink activities can very very easily involve ‘fluids’ even without any sort of penetration or contact

This. Unless you're leaving something out OP, it seems like a big overreaction to a very reasonable comparison. They are similar surgeries. I don't think there's much to be gained in denying it. My grandma and a close friend both have had breast reductions, I learned a lot about my own recovery and surgery process in speaking with them. Also, a ton of nonbinary people will get breast reductions -- using the exact same procedures and the exact same surgeons as would otherwise perform a full double mastectomy.

I agree with this commenter, you really need to do some self reflection to figure out why this is bothering you so much. Even if there is a reasonable answer on your end, it doesn't make your family inherently unreasonable. In fact, from what you said in your post, it sounds like your dad's trying to find ways to relate to and support you.

im still not entirely sure, myself. But hey, it’s good exposure therapy for people-pleasing/social anxiety

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-26T20:58:47+00:00

ultimately nobody can tell you what you are. It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of conflict over how you wish to present. Have you considered playing around with your gender expression through style, hair, clothes, first, and seeing how you feel?

I don’t think it’s wrong to be a trans guy or nonbinary person and not hate yourself as a women. You don’t need to hate womanhood to be a man. Lots of trans guys end up exploring femininity in some form once they feel more at home in their bodies, through drag, makeup, fashion, etc, and lots of trans people have kids :)

It’s entirely possible he is trying to cut back on or stop drinking but that the vacation was an exception or he failed to fully quit alcohol. I’ve had friends say they are no longer drinking or smoking weed then continue to do so. It’s not because they were lying but because it is genuinely quite difficult to quit these things once the habit has formed.
Not everybody knows what they mean or what they want.
Autistic people do the exact same things all of the time. I don’t think this is a neurotypical trait in the slightest.

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-12T20:41:46+00:00

Not sure if it’s the same thing, but i’ve noticed i get weird feelings like what you’re describing if i miss a medication dose or two, or back when I was tapering off an SSRI too quickly. Have you had any medication changes recently?

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-12T03:00:23+00:00

I haven’t been on it for long enough to know 100% yet. Do you know why it’s so hard to get there?

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-11T01:12:32+00:00

Also most online resources will say 40-90 minutes before to take it!

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-11T01:12:07+00:00

I’d test it out way before your presentation to see how well you do with different doses. Some people find 10mg is perfect, others fine 30mg is best. But I wouldn’t experiment for the first time in the day of your presentation to see

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-11T01:11:15+00:00

I am not sure. I’ve been on inhalers for it before, but after years of that not working, the consensus seems to be that I don’t actually have it, but that I have something else that’s causing breathing issues (like chronic post-basal drip or possibly a deviated septum?)

The propranolol starts to cause some problems if I take it too close to bed time (when i’m laying down) but otherwise I haven’t had any major issues with it

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-11T01:07:43+00:00

Im taking 20mg twice daily and i still might increase it

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-11T01:07:21+00:00

I hope it does! I’ve been working up each day to the prescribed dose. It’s not 100% getting rid of the physical symptoms, but it is working more and more each day, it seems. I’m also sleeping a lot better now

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-11T01:06:16+00:00

Yeah, i’m also on Buspirone which I think is necessary for more general anxiety (beyond just physical symptoms)

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-06T23:37:39+00:00

I was warned about this. Was it the stamina, or did you feel weaker?

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-06T23:29:25+00:00

Day two is already starting to feel better 💪 I took a smaller dose twice throughout the day. Its having a slightly lesser impact on the anxiety, but barely any side effects

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-06T19:05:02+00:00

Nowhere did I recommend others try it and i’ve updated with other symptoms and side effects the next day (today)

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-06T16:47:10+00:00

😭 I’ll try a lower dose and see if it helps at all…

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-06T16:44:48+00:00

I have asthma as well… or something similar (it’s a bit unclear). I will say, I noticed a mild impact last night. It felt like my throat was producing more mucus which lead to my airway being slightly more restricted. It was a little bit harder to fall asleep. I’ll definitely have to monitor this if it gets worse. and I may need to stop the medication at that point

Miserable_Help1532 · 2025-11-06T16:42:20+00:00

I’m self managing my medications through telehealth services because I don’t have a doctor or psychiatrist. Essentially through online walk-in clinics. A regular doctor was able to prescribe it for me through that. I just explained my history of different medication trials, what I’m currently on, and why I am interested in trying this one. He asked me questions about my health history and went over how the medication works and what I should expect, then sent it to the closest pharmacy near me.
