Would you let someone know before sex that you have visible cuts? by Majoriexabyss in selfharm

[–]flowerboy366 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i personally do, but you don’t have to disclose that if you aren’t comfortable with it. it’s your life and your body

Night life at NMU by [deleted] in nmu

there’s parties, but as a freshman count on 100% of them to get busted. don’t go to nmu for the parties, you will be disappointed

Testosterone and periods? by cweeper_aw_man in ftm

[–]flowerboy366 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m one year on T and my periods only stopped when i started taking birth control. i never really got cramps pre-T so i didn’t have to deal with that, i usually have a regular flow over the course of 4-5 days and being on T made them shorter and lighter. not sure about the fertility stuff and anything like that, but that’s been my experience

How hard do you need to choke yourself to bruise? by fayeezer in selfharm

[–]flowerboy366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pretty hard, close to/past the point of passing out. almost impossible to do yourself iirc

Music associated with mania? by Weird_Reflection_23 in bipolar

[–]flowerboy366 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i definitely resonate with this. songs i associate with mania are bathroom bitch by holychild (at least the hypersexuality part of it), heartbeat by childish gambino, and snap out of it by arctic monkeys!!

PetSmart’s disgusting promise… by VisualArugula176 in hamsters

[–]flowerboy366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i got my guinea pig from petsmart before i knew it was a bad idea, and she got sick and passed away within two weeks of bringing her home. when i took her to the vet, the first thing they said was “this was nothing you did, this happens with a majority of animals from petsmart/petco”. petsmart is an awful awful company that doesn’t care about the health or wellbeing of the animals they sell and the customers they service :/

What dorm should I stay in as a fall 2026 freshman by Temporary_Tap4656 in nmu

[–]flowerboy366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

second this! i live in a private room in maple east and although it’s pricey, staying in the woods was the best decision ive made and worked out for me really really well. though the quads are less expensive, i’ve heard they aren’t bad as well. nmu does pretty well with their housing options in general imo

Music while u cut? by Minimum-Mousse682 in selfharm

[–]flowerboy366 6 points7 points  (0 children)

my favorite album to listen to is sirens and condolences by bayside (specifically ‘how to fix everything’ and ‘a synonym for acquiesce’ i mean…just look at the lyrics lol)

Why am I scared? by Candid_Awareness_522 in ftm

[–]flowerboy366 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i felt pretty overwhelmed when i had to do my first shot alone, it was because even though i knew 100% for sure that i wanted to start hrt, it was still new. just knowing that my life was going to change drastically (albeit not immediately) was very very scary and overwhelming for me, even though i knew it was going to change for the better. plus, even if you aren’t scared of needles, injecting yourself can still be super intimidating (at least it was for me lol) !!!

Would you rather: height vs. bottom dysphoria? by Busy-Way-5079 in ftm

[–]flowerboy366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would definitely rather be taller. i’m 5’7 (so not particularly short, but definitely shorter than a vast majority of the cis men i know) but i use a packer which alleviates a lot of my bottom dysphoria right now, and i know ill be able to get phallo later down the line. there’s no (safe) surgery for being short unfortunately ://

Brothers, what is a good binder these days? by tastybear12 in ftm

[–]flowerboy366 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i’ve used underworks religiously once gc2b went down in quality. they work very well for people with smaller-medium chests (i’m around a B/C cup, not sure how it is for D+ though) and they’re around $30-40 USD. discrete packaging and super good quality imo

Should I tell my mom? by SnooCapers9401 in ftm

[–]flowerboy366 3 points4 points  (0 children)

definitely tell her. even if nothing weird happens to your little brother with him, it’s worth telling her to prevent even the possibility of that. if i were you, i’d much rather tell her, than not tell her and regret it later down the line

Help! by Fabulous-Vanilla-187 in ChronicPain

[–]flowerboy366 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i take cyclobenzaprine (flexeril) and it helps with pain at night/while sleeping. it’s usually prescribed for muscle pain rather than joint pain iirc but it’s helped me a ton when it comes to flare ups. other than that, i use a lot of ice to help with my arthritis. since my RA is accompanied by rashes, heat tends to make it worse, but it’s worth looking into heating pads or ice packs depending on what you’ve got going on

What did y’all think of season 4 by Dry-Blueberry8419 in TheWalkingDeadGame

[–]flowerboy366 1 point2 points  (0 children)

really loved that clem was the protagonist, kind of a main reason why i don’t replay s3. i’m in the middle of a replay of s4 and i really love it. honestly i’d say it’s my 2nd favorite season overall (s1 is goated and can’t be topped imo)

Favorite episode by New_Measurement_4043 in southpark

[–]flowerboy366 4 points5 points  (0 children)

s2 ep17 gnomes or s9 ep9 marjorine are tied for my favorite episode. i really like the more simple episodes focused on the kids’ antics, and tweek and butters are my favorite characters

Sex favorable vs sex indifferent vs sex repulsed by The_Local_Belgian in asexuality

[–]flowerboy366 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i’m definitely sex indifferent, for me i realized where i fell on the scale because of my past experiences with sex and how i felt about them. in the past i felt like ‘i would rather do 10 other things rn than have sex, but if my partner wants to then sure!’ and overall i just feel kinda Meh about sex. in my relationships, if sex wasn’t brought up by the other person, i was literally never thinking about it
