My dreams the last two nights have been really dark. Not scary/nightmares, just very upsetting subjects. Really hope this doesn't become a pattern.

Update on talking to agency muckymucks about my transphobic coworker: he said the Facebook posts were accidental, and that he just has the technology aptitude of a boomer, and the real issue was him friending a coworker and getting caught.

Of course, he's also very explicitly ignoring all the trans women he works with here, so now I'm gathering accounts to bring that up to management.

I hate bra shopping. I have been wearing the same bra for nearly 5 years. It is now too small because I switched to CPA (also it's old lol) and I am sore as hell and where I used to be ok wearing it all day now I need to get the silly thing off at 2pm. How do I even start shopping online? Last time I measured it was kind of all over the place since I didn't really have a round shape. I remember it being a fucking ordeal last time in a department store trying to find something that fit me. Since I just switched to CPA a month ago, is it better to wait until the pain settles before upgrading since I'm not sure how much development I have left in me?

Basically, how y'all measuring?

There's a solid layer of dirt on my face, except for where the KN95 mask was.

It's been so dry, and it makes leafblowing so dusty πŸ˜–

Is there a difference between gender dysphoria and body dysmorphia?

Is gender dysphoria like a subset of dysmorphia?

If a cis woman worries that she looks too masculine or a cis man frets about balding, do these count as gender dysphoria or dysmorphia?

What is the appropriate amount of worrying about one's appearance before it gets pathologized? Lol

[–] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (3 children)

Like a lot of mental health, you're not gonna find a clear delineation one side of which we say "this person has dysmorphia" and the other we say "this person doesn't."

Dysmorphia is obsessive and people with it ruminate on their self-percieved flaws. It can also have a delusional aspect, like with people with disordered eating (like anorexia) thinking they look too overweight while their BMI slips to under 15, then 12, then... not compatable with life. There's also people who think their muscles aren't big enough, typically men, and you can see the results of that between injections and using gear. Some people go as far as to have limbs amputated to align their self perception with outward body. I had a patient who bit his own finger off (intense, he should probably have a used a knife, whatever) because he felt he could not worship God properly with it - these needs are intense and felt very sincerely by the people with dysmorphia.

Gender dysphoria is much more specific to transgender people in the literature and isn't pathologized the same way anymkre (well, except that it's possible to cure by just doing HRT or surgery or merely socially transitioning etc). Sometimes gender studies theorists point out that plenty of cis people get gender affirming medical attention to attend to some kind of need, and yeah why not call it cis gender dysphoria. It fits but we like to keep our transes and cises more separated for billing code reasons lol

The "appropriate" amount is typically only as much as it doesn't affect your day to day life, your activities of daily living or instrumental activities of daily living. People with body dysmorphia are capable of doing quite a bit of harm to themselves to ease their anxiety and discomfort around their self perception, it's not just moaning about going bald or flying to Turkey for a hair transplant (remember the guy who bit his finger off).

What is Good Health and a subset being what is Good Mental Health are social constructs and are open questions despite medicines empirical trappings. Good Health is generally that you're able to accomplish the things you want to accomplish, plenty of room there for people with disability but also opens up questions of receiving adequate resources (poverty or the brit diagnosis of JSL, just shit life)

[–] DeathToBritain@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

'ahem well you see, DTB, this is because you wish to express your attraction to men but have been consistently hurt by men emotionally every time, and thus this gives you a sense of distance from the object of attraction and one that you could therefore not persue, protecting yourself'

so trueeee little weird pseudo meme psycologist in my head

Got my epilator. The pain is significantly less than manual tweezing, so not bad at all. It's a cheaper one, so it needs to be plugged in and is a bit tough to clean, but I have been able to clear up my arms and hands at least.

EDIT: Also, when I use my cats come over and just watch me with concern. It's very cute.

It is actually impossible for me to keep my bangs out of my eyes right now. Really should try and trim them up or something.
