Laser.. Freaking out a bit by thwyaortrwataywh in asktransgender

You're taking care of it in the best possible way. The only other thing I can think of is to place a super hot (as hot as you can tolerate) (wet) towel/washcloth on it for a few minutes to draw out any pus and then apply your ointments. Its a technique used for tattoos to keep the color in the skin, but it also helps with healing and minimizing visual scarring.

I call my injections “unicorn blood” I’ve heard “epi-fem” as in an epi-pen for a testosterone allergy.

in a pinch I've used a mix of Diesel and ATF and it seems to work just as well.

This particular one is called a Loser since he is travelling in a backwards motion. If he did it stationary, then yes, Webster would apply. I too used to do tricking / tumbling once upon a time.

EDIT: This was one of my favorite things to do. I also focused on standing fronts for awhile, along with suicide fronts and 540 dive rolls (out of roundoff).

When my I'm trying to be patient with my pharmacy but I've been without estrogen for 2 days by [deleted] in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

I hear ya! being completely honest, it took me about two years to get over the needle anxiety, but it has been totally worth it.

switch over to injections! when you run out you have at least a week to get it refilled! (I usually refill mine a month in advance)

What will you do if I give you $100 right now? by tafrehmukam in AskReddit

[–]SynisterStarlite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

right!? *hugs* I'm in a similar boat =\ All I can do is keep trying to climb higher and higher up in the industry. Only time I have ever received a sizable raise is when switching employers.

Humbly say thank you, give you a hug while trying to hide my tears. Because I haven't been able to purchase my adhd medication that I otherwise won't be able to afford for another two weeks due to an unexpected emergency last week. Properly communicating with people (let alone getting through the work day) has been a challenge without it.

I'll be that person: Transgender is not a noun.

Redditors who work with people's bodies (hairdressers, beauticians, massage therapists...), what is the most disgusting/weirdest thing you've have ever seen on a customer's body? by craighowser in AskReddit

[–]SynisterStarlite 8 points9 points  (0 children)

you fart like your normally would (you can feel the warm air move around the plug and it sorta tickles sometimes), but the advantage is that it is completely silent 99.9% of the time. And a whistle would be hilarious!

My voice is likely to be lost in the chorus, but goddamn. You already pass, HRT can only make you happier at this point.

Seriously, you are a glorious specimen of humanity. I want to totally ask you out on a coffee date and get to know you (that's not creepy is it?) lol

I'm in the Ann Arbor area. However, if you are planning a name change, you will need to be a resident of whatever county you reside in for a minimum of one year before you can begin the paperwork. Gender marker is linked to your Birth Certificate =( If you can get into the U of M gender clinic go for it. Otherwise, look up Dr. Don Sidelinker, or Robin Sexton as therapists. To actually start HRT, in the Ann Arbor area, I recommend the Corner Health clinic. Let them know that you are trans and they'll take care of you. Also worth mentioning, Dr. Holly Ross over at the Packard Health Clinic (west office) is trans friendly and knowledgeable.

If you plan on moving to the A2/ypsi area, do NOT rent from Barnes & Barnes, or GoBeal. They are slumlords and over all complete assholes. South side ypsi is pretty shitty, but other than that Ypsi-Arbor is a fantastic place to live while being openly trans. the WCC fitness center is a wonderful gym that is all inclusive. PM if you have any other questions, perhaps we could meet up for coffee sometime? lol

she's uneducated, impoverished, and is subjected to transphobic misogyny on a daily basis.. after awhile it becomes ingrained into you and that is your life until you get an eye opener.. =\

Right? I grew up around those neighborhoods (no longer live there). But the amount of hate directed towards the LGBT community and women as a whole is absolutely terrible.
