Hey everyone, despite some easing in this week, I can't believe I've been gone for a month. I really had a crazy time with my mental health. I think I've finally gotten over my years long battle with extreme anxiety. I really feel like my emotional range is opening up to feel things other than fear. In the last few days, I've felt actually happy for the first time in years. I didn't realize I had been numb for that long. Anyway, I'm happy to be back here with you
So, what's happened over the last month? Anything cool I should know about?
@SnowySkyes@hexbear.net is everything coming along okay after your surgery?
@EstraDoll@hexbear.net how has transition been for you? Still ecstatic?
There was a new post from the DIY laser(electro?) machine poster!
Nice! My at home one just arrived recently. It hurts!
It's electrolysis not laser (quite different)
Yeah I couldn't remember my brain has been so cooked. There are already home IPL machines iirc
Yup.
It feels like nothing has really changed in the last month but that's just not true, a lot has changed actually. I just took my 4th E shot and I'm already feeling some subtle emotional changes, plus I found a place off of craigslist so I'm moving out in ~2 weeks or so with another trans woman as a roommate. Surprisingly affordable too for this area. Haven't done much "transitioning" in the traditional sense other than that but having housing where I can be a trans girl instead of a "cis man" is a huge step in the right direction. Other than that I've been still processing all of my fun new emotions like looking at old photos of myself and seeing a little girl which is bizarre and strange but real
my tits hurt good now :)
That's really great! You're so lucky that you found that space.
I think it's your first place away from home? If so, that's like a double good time.
apart from the time i got kicked out of my house and had to live with my grandfather back in 2020 because i kept going to BLM protests and my parents were liberal
who were upset by the fact that i kept indirectly confronting them with their own complicity in police violence. this is a much better setup though, i get to decorate my room like a communist transbian now and nobody can stop me

That is incredibly sweet of you to ask. Seriously, thank you.
I just had a couple procedures done the last few days to ensure my GI tract didn’t get screwed up. Results came back today and everything is normal, so I can officially say that I’m healing exceedingly well. No major complications or even minor ones. Can’t wait to be set loose upon the world again in 6 more weeks.
That's really good to hear.
That must be incredibly exciting! Hope the 6 weeks isn't too much~
Welcome back! And I'm glad you're feeling better about your mental health
Thank you
Everything been good with you?
Thank you for asking! I've unfortunately been sick over the past 5 days which hasn't been the most fun; the fatigue has been so overpowering that I basically haven't been able to do much outside of lie in bed all day. Otherwise life has been mostly uneventful. Talked with a trans friend earlier which was really nice, and we're making plans to hang out this summer!
That sucks. I hope it's something passing and not indicative of anything chronic.
That sounds cool! Summer is looking exciting for me, too. I'll have a lot more time to myself to present the way I want, and I want to get better at makeup and stuff.
