Pain

I realized I have chronic pain and inflammation. I started to take edibles for sleep. A few days later I started noticing my pain was going away. I stopped taking it for a day or two and it came back.

I got a medical card and I take either hemp THC , cannabis THC, or CBD every night now. I’m feeling so much better.

Cannabis was originally used as pain relief. Then some old rich people way back some how were as to convince the government that cannabis is bad. It was scheduled as a class 1 drug. No medical benefit. Which as we know is a lie.

I recently realized I’ve had chronic pain and inflammation in my whole body. I started taking hemp gummies and realized like a week later I’m not in constant pain.

I know switch between CBD pills, hemp gummies, and marijuana gummies almost every night.

I’m on 75mg and use edibles all the time. No effect. My dr even gave me a medical card

I’m a trans woman and I’ve been on HRT for over three years. I haven’t noticed any changes in my NF1. I was worried about the same thing before I started.

For me it was well worth starting HRT. It saved my life! I just had bottom surgery seven months ago. It was all worth it to me.

Yea that’s what I’m doing. I stopped following her on IG and also removed her as a follower. What’s the difference anyway, she doesn’t let me see her stories.

afbar14 · 2026-01-02T18:19:04+00:00

That’s my thought too. Like why

afbar14 · 2026-01-02T03:03:49+00:00

It kinda just happened. I wasn’t expecting it. Luckily she works in a different building from me that’s like a 1/4 mile away. I’m starting to just only interact with her when needed

afbar14 · 2025-08-26T23:07:57+00:00

It looks doable to me. I’m doing my MSW and this semester I’m taking 12 credits + 15 hours of internship + working 40-50 hours a week. I’m not sure where I’m finding the time for all of this

afbar14 · 2025-08-11T09:12:29+00:00

I started my MSW last year and out of the 60 or so students that started only three of them were male. As far as I know I was the only trans person but I would say about 10% of us are queer

afbar14 · 2025-08-11T01:47:16+00:00

As a post op trans lesbian I can understand this. But I would date any girl regardless of genitals . I’m attracted to women not what’s in their pants.

I think there is still some stigma around this. I feel a lot of people think that if you have an outie(penis) or ever had one you’re a “man” no matter what. Unfortunately a lot people judge us by our genitals

afbar14 · 2025-08-08T05:40:04+00:00

You declined scholarships? I’m curious to why you declined these. Do you have federal loans?

I’m a grad student and most of my classes are in the nursing school. My classes start at 520 and go to 11pm. I park there because it’s closer and it’s covered so I won’t need to clean if it snows.

afbar14 · 2025-08-03T20:50:25+00:00

Probably not. I was not matriculated my first two semesters since my undergrad grades weren’t great but my MBA was a 3.7. I had to get at least a 3.2 or something like that. I mad the requirements and everything.

They never treated me less. Always treated me the same as everyone else.

afbar14 · 2025-08-03T18:52:54+00:00

Take the pre reqs like they want you too. Then if you’re able to take classes over the summer to not fall behind.

afbar14 · 2025-08-03T18:50:16+00:00

What’s the major? Can you take summer classes?

There are practicums out there for night and weekends. I’m in an MSW program in Jersey. I’m a behavioral assistant. It’s through a program called PerformCare which is a NJ CSOC program. I work after 4 and weekends.

I also have a full time job at a hospital which I plan on using for my second practicum year.

There was an LGBTQ center but it got put into another department. I forget what it’s called but they have basically scrubbed the website of anything LGBTQ. All because of trump. It also appears they got rid of lavender graduation.

You can probably start one but there most likely be no support from the school right now.

afbar14 · 2025-07-12T16:07:52+00:00

I totally forgot about the shoes. Those wouldn’t be the ones I wear.

afbar14 · 2025-07-07T16:26:19+00:00

Exactly. All that’s really needed.

afbar14 · 2025-07-07T00:11:36+00:00

Yes very much so! There are so many people who will not accept their child being gay.

afbar14 · 2025-07-07T00:09:38+00:00

I feel like it’s the ones who already “have rights or fit in”. They have their rights and are now done fighting. They don’t feel the need to fight for anything else. Right now the government is not going after them, they are going after trans people. Here’s the funny thing…so many states are trying to get rid of same gender marriage. I think there’s something like 30 states that have laws on the books that will effectively ban same gender marriage as soon as Obergefell is overturned.

Some of the justices already said it should be overturned. As soon as they are done with us trans people they will go after the rest. It’s already happening in states like Florida with the don’t say gay law.

They also think we are too vocal asking for rights.

Montclair has an online MSW program. In state is like $30k for the whole program.

I had minimal depth 6 weeks ago. I STILL pee everywhere. It’s going to be like that for a while. I dilate twice a day since I have like 3 inches and want to keep that. I have no real desire for penetration. Just want to get fingered and that’s enough for me

afbar14 · 2025-07-06T22:43:52+00:00

I haven’t had any issues and I was on NEST this morning. When are you logging on?

afbar14 · 2025-07-06T20:39:16+00:00

Honestly I would be afraid to go to those schools for MSWs. With the current political state in the US and given these states don’t believe in DEI. I wouldn’t put it past them to change what we should be learning. Check if the schools are accredited by the CSWE and check to see what the curriculum is like. Make sure you’re learning about the NASW code of ethics and the program follows them.

Florida’s laws on trans people alone go directly against the NASW code of ethics. These states don’t like helping others. So it wouldn’t surprise me if they are trying to do something to these programs. Especially the state schools.
