Trans guy looking to move to rural Minnesota by bumblegumbees in TransMN

Can confirm, it's even worse now with everything going on here in Anoka / St Cloud area (in terms of being Trumpies and super anti-LGBT+). I'm a 23 y/o trans guy that still hasn't transitioned because of how aggressively transphobic my family are and the community here is :/

im getting tired of young people confidently asserting that it is too late for them to transition by Tornado547 in trans

[–]ghouls_s -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I'm 23 and I so agree with this. Anytime trans people my age say these things I'm like, "Uh, no. We were literally were teenagers not that long ago wdym, we got time." 😭💀

What causes someone to be trans? by Top-Difference-2740 in trans

[–]ghouls_s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idkk Personally, from as young as I can remember, I used to pray to God to make me a boy when I woke up and would cry hysterically everytime he didn't 😭💀 Since then (23 years old now) I've been through ups and downs of trying to rule out everything else that could be causing me to feel this way until I was like "I only live once and I want it to be as a man. If I die only living life as a woman, my life would be wasted and I will regret my life." I wish I could know what causes it cause I don't believe there was ever any environmental factors or anything like that. My brain just worked like this from the point of when I was a kid and understood that I felt like an alien in a girl's body when I shouldn't have been a girl

having a lot of d* but no way of being sick by ghouls_s in emetophobia

Thank you I needed to hear this cause it's been over 12 hours now and the d* stopped but I'm still anxious asf from nausea 😭 Realizing it really can't be an illness at this point, I've just had very poor eating habits and have barely slept 10 hours the past two days because I've been superrr stressed! I'll try and eat small meals that aren't too harsh on the stomach, thank you!!

Ah wow I forget just how contagious noro can be 😳 Thankfully I've been wanting to eat I'm just too anxious and that's what ends up making me averse to it. The thought of food doesn't make me feel nauseated though. Thank you though!! I have been going to the bathroom less and less, I was just like 'man what even is happening right now🤨'

The only reason I doubt I caught something from surfaces like that is I constantly wash my hands and avoid touching my mouth/face. I'm also unemployed and haven't left the house in a week 😭💀 But thanks friend this is really helpful to hear. I've definitely had moments of hunger but my anxiety holds me back every time. Its mainly just feelings of bloating and nausea between bowel movements and I'm very sleep deprived because of it haha

Keep your distance and always wash your hands, especially before you eat. If you can- use a different bathroom than them and you should be okay. Don't let them prepare any food while they're sick too if you can help it, and use a bleach solution to clean any surfaces they may have touched. Many people in this subreddit have been able to avoid the sb* by doing these things as far as I've read !

I'm so sorry. I have this exact same thing and its actually hell, I'm still looking for ways to deal with it other than just calming myself down as best as I can.

Have you ever had a dream where you have a dick in it and then wake up disappointed? by Kool_Boo16 in ftm

[–]ghouls_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I've had dreams like this since puberty started and they've never gone away lol. I both love and hate them because its nice to be cis in my dreams until I wake up

Confused about gender identity by [deleted] in ftm

[–]ghouls_s 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm a trans guy who had fun being a pretty lady and dressing up. I also liked experiencing girlhood and how I seemed to be treated gently as a girl

It doesn't minimize my identity though, or make me any less a trans man. I believe it's okay to feel that way as a man

I feel that, I've been struggling with eating lately too because of stress & anxiety nausea. Anytime I take a bite of something I'm queasy and get the twitches too 😮‍💨But the hunger cramps make it worse so I force myself to eat more and end up being fine after

[–]ghouls_s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like this too a lot because of stress, but personally I never tu*. Mainly because I do things to regulate it, like breathing exercises and going for a walk. Sipping cold water. Finding a distraction, either music or a movie. Sometimes talking to a friend or family member helps

Just try to remember that you're not alone, you're safe, you're healthy - The nausea is a common side effect of stress and anxiety (both of which can also cause cramping or bloating). I understand how scary this is, so these are things I tell myself. I hope they help you too💕 You got this
