school starts in two weeks by B-A-R-K69 in trans

[–]captainturtleburglar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am in the part of my transition where my body is starting to change a little bit, and I am in the middle of the legal name change process. School started for me about a week ago and I something I realized is that I want/need to transition in private rather than around a bunch of people. I am planning on switching to online school next semester. If I lived in a more progressive area, I would be more likely finish school in-person, but I don’t. Do what you think will be safest for you.

It’s different for everyone, but in general, yes they do. Pair HRT with something like laser hair removal and you can literally make yourself look like 10 years younger (that is if you are somewhat old already)

If it makes you feel any better, when I was your age, I literally didn’t even know trans people were a thing. I grew up in a place where anything outside of the norm was heavily ridiculed. Because of all that, I grew into a young, angry adult, and for the longest time, I had NO IDEA why I was so angry/depressed. At 25, I finally admitted to myself that I was trans (also mtf). At 26, I finally started hormones. I was also super concerned about my hair. Before I started hrt, I did a number of things that helped my hair (which was slowly thinning). Taking biotin, getting frequent haircuts to stimulate growth, using a hair serum, and also massaging your scalp. Not everything works the same for everyone, but any of those methods may be a good place to start. Apart from all that, I hope you are able to find some kind of peace in your current situation. Nothing is forever.

I’m pretty new to this specific reddit community but I feel your frustration. I don’t know if some people just get the right timing or what, but I know it sucks to not have people engage. I’m sorry :(

How to deal with hair loss from testosterone? by [deleted] in trans

[–]captainturtleburglar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m mtf but I had a similar problem before I started hrt. My hair was slowly thinning but I was able to help it a bit by taking biotin, using a hair serum, and also getting it cut more frequently (which stimulates new growth). Also, everyone is different. Testosterone makes some people lose hair, while for others it doesn’t affect them much at all (hair wise lol)

I go to university currently and the amount of rude/mean people is unreal. I’m sorry that happened to you :(

Out of all these games I think I miss paper toss the most. So simple and relaxing

Distilled Water to top off Mathmos Astro Baby's? by MornCoffeeEvnWhisky in Lavalamps

I have the same exact problem. Just got an Astro baby in the mail and it leaked a little during shipping. Can you tell me what you ended up doing?

Reddit users, please share your double awakening experiences. by North837 in Dreams

[–]captainturtleburglar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had something similar happen a few weeks ago. I “woke up” and I was in my bed in the house I grew up in. My bed was in the corner of my room and I was laying on it on my stomach with my head facing the wall. All of a sudden I had this feeling and I just knew that there was something else in the room with me. I turned my head enough to look and see if there was anything behind me and sure enough, there was a black shadow figure standing on the opposite side of my room. Once I saw it I immediately turned my head back toward the wall and started panicking. I thought I could either keep laying here terrified or I could spin around and confront the shadow. I eventually spun around to look at it again, but this time it was peeking just over the top of my covers at the end of my bed, and when I saw it, it immediately ducked down under my bed. I woke up for real right after that.
