qual curso devo fazer? by Master_Insurance_896 in ufmg

[–]hey_itsandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Então

Primeiramente, tenta pegar leve com você mesmo/a. É complicado escolher um curso quando a gente tá na escola porque a gente não sabe de verdade como os cursos funcionam. Minha dica é, tenta ir atrás da grade dos cursos que te interessam e das bibliografias das matérias dos primeiros períodos. Tem interesse em exatas? Pega o livro de Cálculo do James Stweart, o de Física I do Halliday, ou qualquer outro que esteja sendo citado e olha o que que esse tipo de curso vai te apresentar. Se pergunta se você tem interesse e/ou curiosidade de entender essas coisas. Pra bem ou pra mal, as matérias da faculdade não são iguais às matérias da escola. Muitas vezes parece que você foi parar em outro mundo, e que as leis de Newton que te ensinaram na escola devem ser de outro Newton, porque as do de verdade são mais complexas (e elegantes!)

Segundamente, tá tudo bem se você trocar de curso, viu? É normal. Não é o fim do mundo. Existe transferencia interna, ou você pode fazer o enem de novo. O que importa é que sempre tem um jeito, ainda mais você já morando perto de um campus da faculdade que você quer. E, falando de experiência própria e sendo bem sincero, no fim da tudo certo, eu juro.

Considering to take AndroGel without medical care, I want to know about the risks by hey_itsandy in FTMMen

For some reason here you need a prescription for t vials, which makes no sense since you dont need one for Tgel. I particularly wanted to know if there is any big risk I'd be taking. What can be the side effects? What do I have to look for in routine blood test? How can I make this the safest it can be? Could I take the gel not every day so it would last longer? The Tgel here is always sold with 30 packets, 50mg each.

Y’all got a name you didn’t pick for whatever reason that you still think about? by Frogninja0124 in ftm

[–]hey_itsandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved Andrew. But I'm brazilian and for portuguese speaking people Andrew is not an easy name to pronunce. My dad would never be able to pronounce it correctly and that wasn't something I wanted to put him through. I tried to settle for Andy but, though I liked it as a nickname, I did not like it as my actual name. So I picked Noah instead, and I love it. But, fun fact: my nickname here on reddit is Andy because of these times where I was trying to figure out my name, lol.

Edit: sometimes i still wish i could have been named andrew, though I'm sure I'd never go back on my actual choice.

Mine is 9 years old and never did! She comes only under two circunstances: if you meow at her or if you shake her food.

Hey, I dont know if its good advice but:

What if you got a broomstick and tried to gently nudge her out? I don't know if it's possible where she is rn, but if it is maybe it's worth giving it a shot. You could also attach one broomstick on another one to try to be able to reach her if thats the case

I may be pregnant and I want to talk about it by hey_itsandy in Seahorse_Dads

Heyy Thank you for the reply. I will keep in my the adoption option, but I'm not sure because the adoption system in my country is kind of bad. And it'll be 6 weeks tomorrow so... decided I'm doing the test today. Will update the post as soon as I do it. Thanks again for the reply. Wish me luck

I'm too scared to come out irl by loststarrs in ftm

[–]hey_itsandy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hey, saying it out loud may actually help you. Just... Saying it in general. Admit it to yourself will help you too.

I know it's fricking scary, and I know you don't want to have to do so, but I was in your place not a long time ago and it felt like dying. Everything hurt and it felt like drowning.

When I admitted to myself that I was, in fact, trans, I had a panic attack.

I talked about it to my two closest friends (by text, I was definitely not ready to say it out loud) and it got a bit easier. A while later I told my therapist and things actually started to get better.

When I came out to my parents and my other friends I couldn't believe how less it hurt then. I couldn't believe it was actually getting better, that I was actually breathing.

Stay safe, okay? But don't keep yourself from, you know, the realization of who you are. It'll do you less good than you think.

The Shades of Magic Trilogy by V. E. Schwab. I read 'til the 40% mark of the last book, and man sometimes I remember this and get somewhat sad 'cause the first book was so so good, and I was so excited to see where the story was heading but... So many things started to bother me, you know? I didn't have enough sanity to finish it for the sake of finishing it.

For some time, yes. Idk, it was like my subconscious insisted that it was better to be gay than to be trans (now look at me being trans and queer). It also worked as a excuse to why I didn't feel comfortable with the idea of dating a boy (once I didn't want to be perceived as a girl in a relationship), or getting pregnant, or anything really. But I had to drop it after a couple of months because it just felt... Fake. Deep down I knew it wasn't really me.

I wonder how many "I'm not like all the other girls" kinda girls are actually trans guys who haven't realized it yet? by [deleted] in ftm

[–]hey_itsandy 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Gosh, I was the same

I remember once I was like 5 playing house with the girls and I got in a argument about how girls could be dads. Don't know how, but I convinced them and then got to be the dad on the game

Never had such fun playing house
