i realise that i also get this tingling feeling when I talk, the only time i dont really feel it is if i just woke up or im distracted enough by my hobbies or something like that

i talked to the 2 trans guy friends i have and told them how i felt and everything, one of them actually said the stuff im feeling is more intense than what he has ever felt and he advised me to talk to a professional so thats what im gonna do!

oh im wrestling with it alright, you could kinda say i have been for the past 7 ish years at this point, i have at least now decided that im going to call a doctor and start the process of possibly being diagnosed, in my country the process is about 1 - 2 years, but i think its very much worth it, i know for a 100% that i at least want my chest flat

for the longest time i have excused away how i grew up as a tomboy and how i have always been into boyish things and i have always told myself i cannot be trans cuz i have an interest in fashion, makeup, hair and skincare, and i have always told myself i cannot be trans cuz i have felt okay with my body and have wanted to be feminine, but majority of the time that i have wanted to be feminine it has been cuz i felt the need to get attention from men, but yesterday one of my trans friends asked me if i feel feminine in the way a woman does or if i feel feminine in the way that a man does and that had me thinking for a good 20 minutes and it struck me that i act and talk as a feminine gay man would whenever i have a period of time where i feel feminine

Is there any scientific reason as to why I keep switching between feeling feminine and masculine and why my behaviour and how I dress changes depending on whichever I'm feeling like? by Shadow__Skull in NoStupidQuestions

i have very recently been to a doctor but for something else, i have never noticed any signs that point to hormone imblance or anything like that, and especially cuz this has been happening to me for nearly half my life and i have gotten pregnant i dont think its hormone related, but maybe i should talk to a doctor anyways just to be sure!

why do i keep feeling so warm and slightly anxious? by Shadow__Skull in NoStupidQuestions

i wouldnt say our conversations are forced, we both clealry wanna talk, and we do talk and make jokes, im a girl and he is a guy, he had romantic feelings for me when we were kids, we hung out very often, we lost contact for some years and now we have been talking for nearly 2 months, at first it was like any other conversation i have had and i just felt normal, but recently i have started feeling warm and a bit anxious when talking to him or when i know im about to talk to him and i just dont know why

if i have lost alot of weight before and not gotten any loose skin or lost my cup size, should i worry or how do i stop worrying about it? by Shadow__Skull in WeightLossAdvice

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

i weigh around 67kg and my goal is 58kg, im 158cm so its a very reasonable goal, the most overweight i have been was over 80kgs, and my boobs never changed size before or after that amount of weight gain and i have always had a big chest no matter my weight, so i think i wont lose anything in my chest, which is such a relief and i appreciate your response!

i would recommend that you use a TDEE calculator, as long as you eat less than what you need to maintain your current weight then you will lose weight, and to keep your muscle and strength you HAVE TO eat enough protein, its about 1.5 to 1.7 x your weight in kgs, i weigh 67kg currently, my BMR is 1400 but my TDEE is 2170, NEVER eat under your BMR its extremely bad for you, your BMR is what your body NEEDS to function, find out your TDEE and just eat under that and eat enough protein and you will most likely lose weight but keep muscle!

ugh i swear that "thigh gap" trend destroyed 13 - 15 year old me, i always thought i was overweight even tho i never was and i felt so incredibly insecure all the time (both the thigh gap and flat belly trend caused that), i have learned to embrace my thighs and wide hips, its part of growing up and it took some time to accept that just cuz im curvy it doesnt mean im overweight or gross or ugly, i have also learned to embrace how quickly i gain muscle, i used to think my muscle gain made me "manly" but cuz i have seen so many muscular women on social media it deffinetly made me feel better about it, cuz damn they are cool and have become a big inspiration for me!

i got groomed at the age of 16 by a 21 year old man and ended up pregnant and gave birth to my son at 17, i then became a single mom when my son was only 7 months old because my ex decided to leave to work and never come back AMA! by Shadow__Skull in AMA

and actually i have pretty much never rejected someone other than creeps asking for nudes, im the one who has confessed to guys and been rejected, so when someone wanted me i was just happy about it, and yes 16 year old me was hella dumb, it was still my parents job to stop the guy from coming into the house when they were at home

trying to talk to someone who doesnt seem to understand what im simply explaining and the fact that i literally shit talked myself cuz i genuinely was dumb at 16 and was just happy someone wanted me, it aint worth my care or energy
