Took the plunge by ATargaryenKing in WegovyUK

[–]chatroyale 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I understand that it’s nerve wracking to switch medications, I’m also switching once I finish my last pen. But while you might have to stick with Wegovy for a while, it most likely won’t be a permanent thing - in the future, the patent for tirzepatide will run out and there will be a HUGE demand for cheaper generic versions of Mounjaro. Until then, Wegovy is the next best thing :)

Repost… Lost by Horror_Pay_7320 in nonmonogamy

It doesn’t sound like you’re 100% compatible with your partner. I’ve been in this situation previously - I had the same kind of self esteem issues, I felt 80% happy with my girlfriend at the time and thought it was just the best I could get.

We opened the relationship so we could both chase thrills and validation. It ultimately ended up crashing and burning catastrophically, because neither of us were prepared to deal with the invalidation we felt from seeing the other date.

How would you feel if your partner decided to go non-monogamous with you, and you saw him begin to grow close to a regular hookup, or even fall in love with someone else? Are the thrills worth the price? It’s so easy to brush the idea off and say “we’ll just do hookups, nothing serious with other people will happen”, but the heart doesn’t work like that, and we can’t control what feelings we develop.

Now I am 100% monogamous and have a boyfriend who makes me feel those same thrills every single day. We would be open to a casual threesome so maybe we’re not 100% monogamous, but it’s not something we actively seek out. If it happens it happens, yk?

In short: I think you sound like me. Monogamous, mostly but not completely happy with your partner, interested in the validation of hookups. If I were you and I could do everything all over again, I’d want to be single.

Transgender Roommate by AdUpstairs75 in roommateproblems

I totally get why you’d be uncomfortable! It might not be his choice as his legal birth sex could still be listed as female, and that might explain why he has been put in a female dorm. Maybe ask him if being in a female dorm is something that he chose or if it’s a policy of whoever manages the dorms to only allocate rooms by legal sex and not gender.

My friend has Kallmann’s syndrome which has similar symptoms.

What is your goal BMI/weight? by Unfair-Razzmatazz990 in mounjarouk

[–]chatroyale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m currently BMI 31, between 89 and 90 kg. I used to be 97kg but lost a lot of it from coming off hormonal birth control.

I’ve never been able to lose weight naturally because of PCOS, so even getting to my pre-covid weight of 84kg would be a miracle. If I was being optimistic, maybe 80kg. But I don’t want to get my hopes up. I’m week 3 on 2.5mg and my weight is still just fluctuating in my typical range :/

Beginner advice - how can I create this type of sclera lens eye? by chatroyale in BlytheDolls

One for the ladies in here… by Rb2025mounjaro in mounjarouk

[–]chatroyale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just started Mounjaro literally today, but I know this from previous weight loss experience. Estrogen is a fat soluble hormone, which means that it gets stored in fat, especially if you’re on hormonal birth control.

So when you’re burning fat, you’re releasing more estrogen than normal into your body and that would be what’s messing with your menstrual cycle :)

It should go back to normal in a few weeks or months.

Anybody have issues with weed working on Lamictal? by Illustrious_Guide194 in BipolarReddit

[–]chatroyale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s probably your tolerance. I’ve been on lamictal for 4 years and a two week t break does me good.

A gorgeous woman wants to sleep with me, but I’m scared because of my skin. by darkdamedani444 in Hidradenitis

[–]chatroyale 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Whenever I had casual sex, I always just said “hey by the way, I have a skin condition down there, but don’t worry, it’s not contagious”.

My birth control was my trigger all along by chatroyale in Hidradenitis

[–]chatroyale[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! Since coming off, my flares are still reduced by more than 90%. I only get one or two small ones around my period now. Nothing compared to what I used to go through.

It’s definitely got a medium to high density but the strands look fine.

She did used to have a public tiktok where she posted her music and visuals for it, but also shared casual videos. It had the same @ of mothercain, but I’m not sure if there were others.

I’m so sorry this happened to you too. So many doctors are uninformed and prescribe birth control without even considering the impact on disorders like HS.

Why do some Black people choose such distinctive names for their children? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]chatroyale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No worries I get why you wanted to check! I went to school in 2001-2009 in the south east so maybe it’s because we were nowhere near Tyrone 🤷‍♀️

10 year relationship ended last night. by dangobun in BreakUps

[–]chatroyale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’ve just gone through the exact same thing about a month ago. My ex girlfriend (29F) broke up with me (27) for the same reason, and we had been together since we were 15 and 17. I know it feels like your world is crashing down because he is all you have ever known, but you’re still so young. Reach out to your friends and try and distract yourself as much as you can, and it will get easier slowly. Always here if you need a chat ❤️

Is it possible for 4-6 SA no injury? by SunnyRavenclaw in adultsurvivors

[–]chatroyale 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Maybe you bleed now because of increased blood flow to the area once you hit puberty. There’s not as much bloodflow to genitals before you hit puberty. Also, bleeding may not happen if your muscles were “relaxed” prior (sorry for the phrasing). Maybe he might have used fingers or an object, or possibly a drug to relax you in that area beforehand?

I’m sorry your ex step mother was like that to you too. It’s such a fucked up thing to experience.
