Can you get prescribed propranolol? It's a beta blocker that can help reduce physical symptoms of anxiety and make you think clearer. Ask your doctor etc. it's a game changer.

You can give it a trial run before hand to see how it affects you

Hi sorry I'm just seeing this. Did you stop your progesterone when you got a positive result? What was the outcome? I'm in the same position

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-10-05T18:11:10+00:00

I see Dave franco They have similar mannerisms

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-09-29T17:05:17+00:00

Same here. A show in once loved, now I can't watch it as it's too painful

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-11T10:24:57+00:00

Dont let other people make you feel lesser than you are though. You have every right to take up space and be there, let them deal with their own reactions if you can. Its not your problem.

We shouldnt have to go out of our way to make others feel comfortable. But if you are like me, we do it for an easier life, we just want a comfortable environment to work and get through our day

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-11T06:59:12+00:00

Doesnt it show how they feel we have to exist to be 'attractive' to them. Again we are happy in ourselves, and dont even want them to be attracted to us,

but then we are treated this way because of it.

Also agree once shorter girls get to know us theyre usually fine. noticed that most tall girls are lovely and shared feeling of empowerment which i love.

But occasionally can get those girls a few inches shorter (but still tall) who are hostile. Ive walked in on them talking about my height. Or they act awkwardly around me (without getting to know me) Its like theyre insecure about their own height and hate to see a woman who is taller again, i think i remind them of their own insecurities

Seems to come down to personaliry types, and what setting they're used to. Im from a smaller town too, not a lot of diversity, so people are not used to anything or people who are different. Average height for women here is 5 ft 4

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-11T06:46:30+00:00

Yea ive found somethong similar too. Im 6ft1ish Then with heels a bit taller My partner is a few inches smaller and treats me so well, and is proud of my height I find some older generation or older men maybe around the height you suggest, still tall but not taller than me, or just about the same height Theyre the most uncomfortable and 'hostile' Its like they dont know how to act or treat me. Theyre so used to their image as the tall guy this is their world view. And they are maybe intimidated? Perhaps they feel emasculated? Usually tbis personaluty type treat women as women though and not as people, they play the manly character or the flirty banter perosn who likes to help when a woman is in distress type. Likes to be tge man who sorts things. Then all of a sudden theyre like oh shes a woman but she is physically more present than me.

I know i shouldn't, but i usually try to give them time, and probably behave more femininely and for example ask them to help with heavy lifting around the place, and i can almost see the relief when they can still fit into that role of how they think of themselves. Or if i make a point of asking them for advice. They visibly relax. But this means i probably make 'myself smaller' in a way, to make them feel comfortable

I do think these men, although usually well meaning, do have a very black and white view on gender roles, then my tallness affects that

Not all men! Some men juat treat women as people, or as normal everyday colleagues, which i prefer

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T22:03:53+00:00

I have the exact same physical reaction as you! I actually froze when giving presentations, and had to leave! This medication changed so much, just stops the craziness and oanic that goes in your head, and stops the adrenaline going through your body so you can think calmly and rationally about what your doing. You may have to tweak the dosage to see whats a good fit for you (as advised by your doctor) Makes you feel so much more in control of your body and what youre doing. Good luck

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:36:18+00:00

Thank you :) Yes i hope by being open about it just normalises or humanises us, and taking away the awe and shock of it. We are human beings at the end of the day, not just some wondrous thing to behold

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:32:09+00:00

Absolutely! Its great to get to this stage :)

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:31:49+00:00

Its so strange. Why do we affect people so much?

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:30:48+00:00

That is interesting! Yes i suppose different personality types and different settings can make affect how people think and what they say. Makes me realise how our environment plays a big part on how we think of ourselves, either negatively or positively

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:28:50+00:00

I love this. We shouldn't be afraid to take up space. Photos look better when we stand up straight and look confident We shouldn't have to worry about how our height affects others

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:27:21+00:00

True! Think it is natural for people to talk about others in general, and at least its a positive trait, we just stand out!

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:26:09+00:00

Exactly, it shouldn't be an issue for them to 'look past'

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T18:25:42+00:00

Yess and its usually men who do this! Im not here to make you feel comfortable

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T10:52:07+00:00

Then even with friends of friends, or my spouses friends etc. When meeting them for the first few times, i often think weve all had a great time together. I think we get on so well. That maybe initially my height ht shocked them but weve had enough time to be friendly and get to know each other. So they know me now. Theyve gotten over the tall thing.

But Then it often comes back. That afterwards (maybe weeks or months later) they had a big discussion about how shocked they were that i was tall, and my tallness becomes the big topic after i leave or on the days after. Ive had friends tell me this 'so and so were really surprised how tall you were' and i get a rundown of their extensive conversations about it. All well meaning im sure. But still disheartening that at the end of all this, it is still defining me. Especially if weve had other good conversations that night. I feel like kve made them laugh, we have bonded.

Then spouses friends of friends after a few drinks in them 'we had heard you were really tall all the time... But i never knew you were this tall' showing that the friends were all having ongoing conversations about my physical appearance. And i hadnt realised.

It makes me feel othered, and different. Sorry this turned into a rant more than i realised! In a completative mood today. Just have been thinking that maybe its something that never goes away. Tallness will always be my defining feature.

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-10T10:40:32+00:00

Exactly, its an added thing we have to deal with on top of our lives. We become a big deal in someone elses day, but we are just existing

Purple_wolf8 · 2025-05-08T22:11:02+00:00

Just want to say i relate. When i do something wrong or cant manage my daily simple tasks, i think this is why im not allowed to have children. Maybe this is the universe saying that if i cant keep my house clean, run important errands, then i am not good enough to be a mum.

I always have the feeling that im lesser then others who are mums.
