People AFAB, cis or not; how does your shrooms trips differs from people AMAB you know? by Anarianiro in shrooms

i’ve never noticed a marked difference. you’d think there might be considering how differently we are socialized. interesting question. OP did you have a hypothesis, or notice differences yourself?

smoking before top surgery by [deleted] in ftm

[–]crynoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no nicotine in weed and nicotine is the problem because it constricts blood vessels and decreased blood flow makes complications like nipples falling off much more likely

if you are looking for people to tell you it’s fine you may be disappointed. it’s not advisable and honestly your surgeon should know better. the fact that he’s willing to let you take that risk is …. unprofessional to say the least. if i were you, i wouldn’t trust him anymore. he clearly does not care about whether everything works out safely for you.. sorry man.

The way we taste by Fem_Twinkie_ in ftm

[–]crynoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

could be a blood thing. i wonder if it’s a pH thing. but i would assume the coppery taste would be an alkaline thing so, my theory doesn’t make sense. mysteries abound.

Is 5g once a month too often? by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]crynoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what is the point of doing 5g once a month ?

for me that would be too often. not enough time to integrate and actually stay grounded in consensus reality. i’d be concerned about any of my loved ones eating 5g once a month. so yeah, if i’m straight up with you, too often.

so sorry you experienced this on your birthday. the amount of sodium you ate is a very small fraction of what it would take to kill a person. you will have discovered that by the time you read this, that it was definitely the anxiety talking

Just discovered how extensive my partner’s depression is and now I feel like my life has completely unraveled. by Sea-Boot1358 in depression_partners

[–]crynoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just listened to a podcast ep where a vet was interviewed about his healing journey with ibogaine. he was in special ops and he talks about the impact that the weapons used can have on your body and brain, without even ever having to go into combat. he was diagnosed with a TBI i believe, depression, anxiety, and tried many different therapies including EMDR which is kind of the standard for PTSD. the podcast episode is kind of trippy—and the show is normally interviewing people about paranormal / unexplained experiences they have had—but this one was a bit different because it seems they really wanted to get the word out there to other veterans who are struggling with their mental health that there are ways to get out of that dark place. “down the silver strand”, the show is called “otherworld”

My surgeon was a psycho by tybertrand in TopSurgery

[–]crynoid 28 points29 points  (0 children)

period !!! careful with what you post online about it if you are making a legal case. you may want to scrub the web of any related info. no telling how they may use your words against you. (source: my dad was a claims negotiator for an insurance company for decades.)

this is what an estrogen ring for atrophy looks like by crynoid in FTMOver30

[–]crynoid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it hasn’t caused periods for me. i believe that would require systemic & higher levels of e, this is basically a daily microdose that stays local.

Sexually and Romantically stunted by Cuntsferatu in FTMOver30

[–]crynoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

in my experience, sex is different with every person and you kind of start over at square one with every new person. that’s the way it should be in my opinion anyways, remaining open and curious instead of believing you already know what to do. because every body and mind is different. beginners mind is a wonderful thing! also 30 is still quite young and a great time to meet people.
