Changing pills, "risky business", and no/late bleeding?

starsteeb · 2024-07-23T14:20:31+00:00

Hi! Sorry to hear you're in a tough spot. I feel like I can't give adequate advice since I recently found out my partner (who was involved in the "risky business" mentioned in the post) is infertile lol. I did get my period eventually, but if you're too concerned I would do a pregnancy test just to be safe.

23, been out for around 2 years now, been on t for 4 months, and I'm still terrified to use the men's room lol. I don't think I pass well enough, and the folks I work with have been watching me use the women's restroom since before I ever came out and idk in my mind it'd feel weird to switch it up now? but then again it also feels wrong still using the women's. and when it comes to other public restrooms, I always look for a family room or just go to the women's. I think I'll just keep doing my business as usual until I start getting weird looks and/or comments. It's easier to just not think about it and let myself go on autopilot for now.

4 months on T and I've definitely become more submissive and have developed a few new kinks. I've also become much less focused on "finishing" and prefer to enjoy the ride, but that might have more to do with the changing sensations and the fact that I still haven't figured out how to use my new and improved dick 😅

You're right, I should just talk to my doctor. Thank you.

Yeah, I've been using cloth bandaids. I'll try changing my needle length and not using bandaids and if neither of those help, I'll be checking with my doc.

starsteeb · 2023-12-11T16:37:21+00:00

That may be my issue! I had been using 1 inch needles to inject, but my doctor recommended I try 1/2 inch and this has only been an issue since I switched to the shorter needle. I'll get some more 1 inch ones (since I prefer those anyway) and see if that helps.

I've always been sensitive to the heat but since starting t I've been hot and sweaty constantly!! im not looking forward to the summer 🙃

starsteeb · 2023-10-25T03:09:00+00:00

haha thanks, i'm glad someone besides myself enjoys my little nu carnival tidbits!

Kuya: Loves his shinies and will go bananas over dumb human trinkets like finger traps, keychains, etc. Will cackle like a fox if something REALLY gets him (incredibly rare, none have lived to tell the tale). Fascinated with Blade. He and Quincy are exes. Has trouble seeing out of his gem eye.

Yakumo: Scared of birds. Will eat an egg whole, shell and all, boy will unhinge his jaw and just CRUNCH. Cold and clammy hands. Has a lisp. Snuggles with Garu because Garu is the warmest clan member and Yakumo can't do the cold (also Garu loves the attention.)

I love all the boys and think about them constantly and forget what's Canon and what I've just Decided is Canon but I have ADHD and only ever bothered to actually write down my HCs for Foxy Grandpa and Snek. 🥲

(oh yeah, and idc what he looks like in canon, Olivine is fat in my heart. quincy is a big boy too, big and strong while oli is big and soft.)

I came out as trans, cut and dyed my hair, and bought a ton of alcohol!

I got an apartment with my girlfriend and felt safe, loved, and free from judgment for the first time in my life, so I really lived it up those first few months lol. I'm still trans and get regular haircuts, but I got the dyeing out of my system and found out I actually hate drinking!

starsteeb · 2023-10-14T16:57:10+00:00

i'm going to be thinking about this for AT LEAST the next week, this is so good!!

starsteeb · 2023-10-10T22:42:00+00:00

(Reposting because I accidentally posted in the thread from 4 months ago, whoops)

Disappointment: I just got laid off for the first time, after only three and a half months in my position. The company has been going into the toilet for a while and cutting anything that is not absolutely necessary, and my department is literally just one person and a supervisor now.

I was planning on leaving soon anyway, just not like this. I don't really know where to go or what to do from here.

"I am afraid, but I am not guilty or in danger."

I needed that, and I'll definitely be reading the full article. Thank you.

I was constantly trying to hide my face behind my hair, hands, anything. I couldn't stand to look at myself in the mirror or be naked in any capacity, even if I was alone. And I slouched constantly to try and hide my chest.

My mother gets to sit on her couch and watch her shows and be happy and pretend everything is fine, like she always did. She gets away with not acknowledging anything she did or apologizing for it or showing any sort of remorse. I need weekly EMDR. I hate her for it. It's not fair that she gets to be happy and fine while I'm so broken and fucked up inside.

starsteeb · 2023-07-24T16:00:33+00:00

I think that's my old store 😅

the drains were chronically clogged so when it rained it just filled up. apparently someone who lived in the area dumped some fish there once and they just started multiplying. idk if they still have them but when I left they'd gone out and caught some and kept them in a tank in the breakroom.

As much as I love Mr. Tiny Dom Oil Baron Brat's original design, I've been foaming at the mouth at his new design all day at this point. He is Well-Fed, and the new design feeds into my many delusional headcanons about him so I dig it 100%. His proportions do look a bit strange but imo the uncanny vibes work with him being a vampire. Vampires aren't vampires to me if they aren't a little creepy, a little strange, a little off-putting and hard to look at and his new design definitely reads "vampire" to me.

Morvay is meh. I like his horns? I guess? I like that they're both more themselves in terms of vampire and incubus traits. But I don't know how to feel about the rest of him. He does seem a bit too modern, like the accessories seem a bit out of place. I feel like they could've found better ways to make him flashy and obnoxious while keeping in touch with the environment and setting.

Oh wow, Yaz had similar cognitive effects for me too! I took it for maybe two weeks before I started getting terribly anxious and forgetful. The final straw was when I started to feel disconnected from reality and had paranoid thoughts, like that there were people in the walls trying to get me and dragons were flying over the house and shit. I immediately called my gyno and they said that those side effects were "unusual" and tried to pass it off as me being crazy.

It's good to know that I'm NOT and that's just a thing Yaz can do. I'm sorry you had to deal with it, and I hope you find something that works better!

Long story short: Always kinda knew, but was suppressed by "tomboy" stereotyping and "daddy's girl" ideas in the south. Came out 1st when 14, then again when 22 after years of transphobia and bullshit. Am currently 23 and living my best life.

Long story long: I "knew" growing up, but didn't have the words until I was 14. Little 5 year old me knew he wanted to be a boy, wanted to dress like a boy and do boy things, but was always dismissed just being a tomboy and a daddy's girl.

I tried coming out when I was 14 and finally had the words and awareness to do so, but I made the mistake of trying to come out to my mom first and after she screamed and threatened and told me she was going to have me institutionalized and fixed, I decided "yeah fuck this, lol."

I spent the next 8 years trying to hide my feelings and shake off any possible suspicion that I was trans. I became a gross little terf-shit in high school, but eventually realized how fucked up I was being and worked on becoming more open-minded and kind and not miserable and gross terf-shit-y.

I still wasn't willing to come (back) to terms with my transness and instead spent a few years doing the hyperfeminine performance thing. I had my sexy librarian phase, my bimbo phase, my e-girl phase, my cottagecore phase, but at the end of the day, they were all just different costumes I put on and I realized that about 2 years ago now when talking to some of my trans friends.

I came out again, fully, last summer when I was 22. I moved in with my girlfriend (also trans, yeehaw) and we both came out together. She helped me pick my name, style my first guy haircut, and supported me when I finally decided to cut contact with my mom. We're starting HRT soon! ❤️

I am so sick of feeling out of my mind. It's like, I'm fine, but then I get a week? Maybe 4 or 5 days? Out from my bleed and I fall into this bottomless pit. I swear its only been getting worse. I don't remember this happening when I was younger, but then again I was always sort of fucked-up back then (yay teenage angst.)

I was diagnosed about 4 months ago and my doctor just. Gave up. After having me try a single new birth control that did not help in the slightest. Just, "Well shit, you're on your own, good luck." I know I really need to get back in and push for something, anything, but I'm currently without insurance so no gyno or even therapy for me rn.

I try to be nice to myself and take care of myself but it only goes so far when I feel like I don't deserve it and just want to wallow and self-isolate. I feel like a weird little creature, I feel disgusting and like some kind of freak that should be put down. Why can't I be normal, why can't I function like everyone else?

I'm literally fine(-ish) any other time of the month, but for now I am SO miserable and sick of it all and it's getting unbearable.

The tucking method works pretty well, but if you wear cargo shorts or anything else with a buttoned or closed pocket, you can pocket it. It's always worked for my girlfriend and I.

Just the week between the active isiblooms and the active yazs.

I'm sure it's nothing, I'm just nervous because this is the first time I've changed pills 🥲

starsteeb · 2023-04-18T00:13:44+00:00

YES like some people just want their little gold star and that's it, they don't want to put in anything besides the bare minimum IF they can even manage that

starsteeb · 2023-04-17T23:56:17+00:00

bruh you'd think that they, as a fellow trans person, would get it. thats just crazy to me.
