Holy crap the new Zelda game is so cute and giving me that same sense of wonder the first game did when I was a kid. I'm in gamer girl heaven right now.

spoilerShe's a wizard! You copy and then summon objects and monsters. Puts a fun twist on puzzles and combat.

Okay, I'll stop gushing now.

Yeah, it's on someone's YouTube channel. If you search for gender euphoria workbook it should come up.

Chronic pain and dysphoria got me down.

But ordered a new journal and going to start the gender euphoria workbook videos. Also working through a pain management workbook.

Hoping to get my physical health and dysphoria on an upward spiral. Going to bed stoned so I can sleep and waking up inflamed everyday is not the life I want.

Depends on how curious you are. I imagine she did some interviews and stuff too that might have a lot of that stuff in it. Or if you want I could just tell you what I gleaned from it.

If so just reply I guess I'm about to head out though so I won't have time until I check my socials tomorrow morning.

I quit dreaming at some point last year. Suppressing nightmares I think.

I started dreaming again recently. And had a very vivid one night before last that was pleasant.

Had an argument with my gf last night, we worked everything out but apparently I had some lingering emotions.

Had a nightmare last night that a very manipulative exgf was hanging out with my current gf. I think some of it's brainworms and doubts. As that was a lot of the narrative manipulative ex was pushing about me.

I need to find a gender therapist. I like my current one but she's cis and treating early transition people isn't her wheelhouse.

spoilerThere's an afterward in the second printing. Not an epilogue but Imogen talks about the story structure and narrative.

Unfit is the first?? Of the second.

Must be a missing line at the bottom.

Thanks!

My gf used to wax herself and has offered to teach me. So I'll likely go that route.

Did you have nipple hair before? It's about the only place on my chest where I have much body hair.

[–] comrade_rain@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Yeah I don't think it's really a good idea. Better to find some supportive friends instead and let that relationship go in my opinion.

I've made friends at support groups by showing up early to meetings and hanging out after meetings. If there's people that you vibe with just ask them if they want to grab some coffee or something sometime.

Outside of that. Here we have a trans church. I'm not a church-going person but they do a lot of community building and left organizing. So I make friends by attending events that the church hosts.

My partner also had a trans woman join a non-profit that she is on the board of. And I made friends with her and have gone clothes shopping with her as well as hung out a few times.

I think generally trans people are happy to make friends with other trans people. And we have similar lived experiences that tend to be pretty rare. So making friends can be easy once we get over the awkwardness.
