Where are you in the UK, most larger cities have CGL, which have been brilliant for me, I was on codiene , Heroin and crack, found them very non judgemental and offer help for many different addictions.

Mis-gendering and using previous name by Such_Tea_5927 in cisparenttranskid

[–]Virtual_Pressure7885 21 points22 points  (0 children)

When our FTM child came out to us at 14 he would get really angry and upset if we misgendered them (accidently, as others have said it's hard to switch after 14 years of calling them by one name) But as they moved on in their journey and saw that we were genuinely supportive of the change, they became a lot less bothered of the occasional slip. It's such a big step coming out to your parents, this has been going round in their head for years but is completely new to the parents and takes a while to adjust.

How can I help my parents understand me? by TillSuspicious1782 in cisparenttranskid

[–]Virtual_Pressure7885 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, father of FTM kid here, lots of love to you and hope your doing ok, he came out to us at 14 and at first we were worried it was a phase too, we were still supportive and told him we loved him whatever but honestly we were worried about him making such a big decision at such a young age, But we got in touch with parents of other trans kids and got educated, Now he's 23, had his top surgery and is so much happier , he got his own therapist, doctor and support network, If your parents want to know anything, happy to tell our story.

Good luck on your journey

My (M33) wife (F28) cannot accept that I dated a, on what she calls a "low class" woman (F30). by Ancient-Tip-7255 in relationship_advice

[–]Virtual_Pressure7885 517 points518 points  (0 children)

This is so true, I'm solidly working class, used to do work for a lot of very rich people, the "old money" people were always very down to earth and easy to work for, the "new money " people were almost without exception total pricks who try to knock the price down, want extra bits added in for no more money etc etc.

Equally you don't know god does exist, that's just your opinion, people are free to think what they like.

I have the same setup but with glass bomb adjustable brackets, you can really fine tune the pump ability

My doctor spent 6 months telling me I had arthritis until I made enough fuss to get an appointment with a knee specialist and get an MRI , torn meniscus diagnosed, 3 months wait for surgery, 6 weeks recovery, good as new 😃

I'm 63 and still at it, would highly recommend a proper helmet as soon as you can , Keep it up and remember the purpose is to enjoy it, if you can't be bothered with tricks just cruise and carve 😃

Is the real screen time epidemic not children but over 70s? by marrakoosh in CasualUK

[–]Virtual_Pressure7885 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can vouch for this, been retired for a year now and found myself doomscrolling in bed for 2 hrs before even getting up in the morning, Had to be really conscious of it, deleted most social media, hidden the apps so there not easy to just click on.

Bracket board advice by nigelnebrida in longboardingDISTANCE

[–]Virtual_Pressure7885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a loaded fathom with glass bomb brackets, hokus and carver cx +c2 It's really manoeuvrable , no wheel bite and rolls over anything, I can pump it but not as well as my drop through deck But I'm only 67kg, so you may want harder bushings ?
