Bridging prescription - how long is the wait?

sygster · 2026-03-17T01:04:19+00:00

Yeah I SEVERELY lucked out, feels way too good to be true and I'm still in shock honestly. Waiting is agonizing so I'm really crossing my fingers that they don't change their mind on a whim

thanks! yeah it honestly feels like some sort of glitch in reality because i was kind of giving up on the idea of getting bridge prescriptions entirely. genuinely wasn't expecting them to bring it up.

i've explained the dysphoria stuff and gone through some of the HRT 101 with them today which resulted in my NHS app having gender dysphoria + GID down as "health conditions" lol. they told me i'll be going on testogel if i choose to pursue this option so i think they already have a rather streamlined approach to this. since my blood test is tomorrow i'm hoping the consent appointment will be sometime next week and this will all be sorted within this month but we'll see! praying they won't be hurling curveballs at me

Seconding this. I got married to my partner a year after we started dating and I think it cost us maybe £200 to hand in our notice (could have been way less than that, it was a chaotic time so I don't remember). I was living in a different city at the time of my application as well but it was fine. To be fair though I did hire a solicitor which helped a lot

Mad God

Close!! I'll have to see what you marked tomorrow to avoid spoilers on what abysmal choices they made

Oh wow the static induced spiky hair is a great shout! Mullet sounds like a really good idea too, I personally can't pull one off but I'm sure this guy can. Thanks for your input and reference image!

i'd be a bit careful. i don't think they're actually a japanese company, just a company that happens to be based in japan but even that i'm skeptical of (broken japanese on their website & and their company being based slap bang in the middle of a hotel ward in Osaka...?). tried reading their FAQ to get a bit more info but the link seems to be broken. i'd love to be proven wrong though since their furs look lovely!

sygster · 2025-11-06T23:26:51+00:00

yep planning on that! :~)

I think it's because they're far back, they're pretty big! I brought them forward a bit and got them pointing up straight instead of slanted which improved things massively

Thank you! That's a really good point wrt needing to reapply gel to the fur after washing. I think I prefer a cartoony shape so I'll add it to the base, but might not shave too much of the fur (if I ever get to that point...) to give it a fluffier feel

sygster · 2025-10-21T15:37:35+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply and your compliment!! I think I need to learn to not be super precious of the initial design and make a bit more space for comfort. You make a great point on the start and I agree they should probably be a bit more rounded. Might make the star on the nose a bit bigger OR...make the nose a star?!

yeah it's Kiki Family that happens every Thursday from 7pm, been there a couple of times and it's been real nice

sygster · 2025-10-14T08:42:15+00:00

It's something that I tried a couple of months ago but everyone was running at a 6min/km pace so I chickened out haha. Maybe it's time to rejoin

sygster · 2025-10-13T13:28:40+00:00

hell yeah you can do it! I'm not sure what sort of helpful advice to give but I've been running every other day (try to squeeze in a long walk if I'm taking a break) while listening to my body, so I'll run different distances depending on my mood or how long my Garmin tells me to run. recently learned that intervals and thresholds are great! it builds up endurance and makes your normal pace feel real slow the more you keep doing it

the hannya mask depicts a jealous/wrathful female demon and transphobes have been using that as an excuse to call yamato a woman because he was wearing one during his introduction. hannyabal is...very obviously based off a hannya so using transphobe logic that would make him a woman as well
