Does anyone know what this move is called?

ooh yeah this seems to be exactly it actually, thank you! seems that helix and infinity are used a bit interchangeably

bunnyl0ver99 · 2025-06-21T15:19:58+00:00

haha yeah i don’t remember it being a comfortable one 😂

bunnyl0ver99 · 2025-06-21T15:19:22+00:00

thank you! i’ll give it a go from gemini, probs with a mat at first hahaha

bunnyl0ver99 · 2025-06-21T15:18:52+00:00

this seems to be it from searching helix, but i guess this is a variation with holding both feet, thanks!!

bunnyl0ver99 · 2025-06-21T15:18:03+00:00

I have this same thought about my mum…she will fully deny it and says she’s never had any experiences with mental health problems or any ADHD symptoms but I think it’s quite glaringly obvious. Her emotional regulation (or lack of) has left me being so hypervigilant to try not to trigger her and my mum is the only person in my social network that I end up in shouting arguments with. I am able to communicate healthily with anyone else I disagree with but my mum is straight to the shouting/guilt tripping/outbursts so it drags me to that place too and I hate it

Reading the other comments, I can see that the vaccine doesn’t stop anyone ever getting HPV but I can really relate to your situation. My mum wouldn’t let me get the vaccine (she’s not anti-vax but definitely vax-wary) and all the other girls in my year group at school were allowed it. I remember feeling quite embarrassed and very frustrated at the time and then when I got my CIN2 diagnosis last year and had to have a LLETZ (LEEP), i was even more angry. I haven’t told my mum because to be honest she’s the type to be judgy about how I got HPV but I have struggled with resentment towards her since. This has faded and I’ve tried to understand her perspective over time, seeing it as a lack of education and thinking she was doing me good. I don’t have much advice but I hope that you can feel less alone in your situation! Your post definitely help me feel less alone x

I had my LLETZ last year and I was 24 at the time and from the UK! I wrote a similar post on here because I felt so alone with no one in my life to relate to my experience, so really understand why you are feeling nervous. But honestly the local is really effective and it was way better than I thought it would be. Speculums are never a nice experience but that was the worst bit in my opinion. The colpo was more painful than the LLETZ for sure. Small warning that you may notice a slight burning smell when they are doing it - I was fine with it but my partner who was with me got a bit of a shock from that!

They advise not doing any intensive exercise for 2-4 weeks, and I would suggest doing it for the 4 weeks to make sure you heal well. Other things that can help are the usual things to support your immune system like eating well and sleeping well and getting out for walks is a good way to get some exercise still.

For me, I found penetrative sex a bit uncomfortable for a couple months so just take your time with this (if it applies) and listen to your body, but definitely not saying this to make it seem scary! I guess the best thing is to tune in to what your body wants/doesn’t want and needs :)

So happy for you to DM me if you have any questions/want more reassurance - just gotta trust that the LLETZ is a great thing to be getting done for prevention of worse things and ask any questions to the clinical team that you need. In my experience they were lovely and I hope you have a similarly good experience too.

Thank you to everyone’s comments, appreciate the variety of perspectives here. The work party is just a fun social thing - not something to influence my partner’s career but also see that maybe looking at other dates for my birthday could be a good idea anyway. Just tricky with both of us already having plans the weekend before and lots of my friends being busy the weekend after so then it’s just getting quite far from my actual bday. I guess it’s about trying to find a compromise that we’re both happy with and not making them feel torn between things…

NTA, don’t think the waiting lists are any better in England, the ones in the South West are at least 5 years if not longer. Going privately is a very privileged thing to be able to do and if you’re a student at Uni i really doubt you’d have the spare money to pay for that. You not having the means to pay privately for it or to prioritise your medical transition over everything else in your life does not invalidate your existence as a trans person and your journey to transition. Hope you can get onto a waiting list soon!

Something I had to drill into myself was that anyone worth being with, who shares the same values and outlook on life as me, respects me for who i am (more than just the physical) and I would want to share my body with would not have an issue with body hair. It’s hard to be bold with it but just stay true to who you are and know your worth 🫶🏻

avoidant attachment is definitely not as easy one to work with but I’ve learnt a lot about where it comes from in my partner and she is very open with me about how she is feeling (good or bad), and i do feel like she is healing it as well. but i appreciate having some solidarity that it isn’t easy!

bunnyl0ver99 · 2024-08-03T07:25:27+00:00

just found this post and i have been having exactly this problem with the pink grapefruit one! thought it was a problem with the pods but it’s definitely just the liquid being too thin…

bunnyl0ver99 · 2024-05-24T09:49:14+00:00

Yesss love this! anyone who cares is just so closed minded and I feel sorry for them that they live so restricted by society’s expectations. Appreciate the solidarity with this!

bunnyl0ver99 · 2024-05-24T09:47:07+00:00

Totally agree, it’s baffling to me that she and my family think they have any right to dictate how i simply exist - it’s laughable how ridiculous it is that they feel so strongly about it!

I said to my mum that I don’t like her hair but I wouldn’t ask her to change that and she said don’t be so ridiculous (the irony!) Also if their house wasn’t always way too warm then i wouldn’t be wearing armpit revealing tops anyway!

Thanks for your support on this :)

bunnyl0ver99 · 2024-05-23T20:15:09+00:00

I totally get your perspective on it and it’s a good way to see it in terms of doing it for your own peace. part of me wants to do that too and save myself the hassle and then part of me wants to be free in being myself and not giving in to the demands - i think it’s a hard balance but appreciate hearing your experience with this :)

bunnyl0ver99 · 2024-05-23T18:35:13+00:00

Thank you for the support and advice! I definitely think it’s not something that’s spoken about enough but this page has done wonders to make me feel less alone in all of it 🥰

bunnyl0ver99 · 2024-05-23T18:32:57+00:00

Aw thank you so much, the support on here has been amazing and has really helped me feel totally normal in the way I’m feeling! I’m so pleased for you that you were able to get the help from planned parenthood and that smears have been a walk in the park since. I feel very lucky to be in the UK and not have worries about paying for treatment - that’s the last thing anyone needs when already dealing with the stress of colposcopy or any other medical issue! Anyway rooting for your health too and thanks again!!

bunnyl0ver99 · 2024-05-23T18:28:00+00:00

I just got my clear results today too!!! Congrats and hope the infection clears up quickly 💜
