Bralettes acquired. I feel like I'm being gently hugged hehe. I underestimated how neat this would feel

I want a gentle hug
Before I socially transitioned I wore a bralette under my boy clothes~
Kinda wish I had done that now tbh. It feels sooooo nice and it's been like a constant source of euphoria today hehe
Even though I'm taking estrogen (and spironolactone) I'm still taking finasteride. I think just it's neat. I'm surprised it doesn't get used as much in gender affirming care.
Obviously it's can't be a sole anti-androgen as it only blocks DHT, but like women trans and cis are meant to have some testosterone if only for energy, libido etc. I think it makes sense to have the finasteride there to sweep in and block the DHT part that only have negative effects (hair loss on scalp, increased facial and body hair, prostate enlargement). It's actually prescribed to cis women who are losing hair or are hirsute, a demographic with a lot in common with some trans women.
The major side "negative" effects are reversible (1:100) and irreversible erectile dysfunction (1:10,000) which is a YMMV and breast growth
I pay 20 AUD for 30x5mg tablets, that I quarter, meaning I have 4 months supply at once and it costs me 5 dollar bucks a month.
Also seems like it has relevance for Trans Men who don't want hair loss from testosterone. IDK.
Is there any particular reason you're taking fin instead of duta?
Regional differences probably from being in Australia. I got the finasteride a couple of years ago for βhair lossβ. Dutasteride is only for prostate enlargement here even though itβs also in the same family.
Ah, okay. Probably unsolicited advice, but you can look into the differences between duta and fin and whether to take one over the other.
My understanding is dutasteride is stronger, in Australia though a doctor might refuse to prescribe it as itβs off label use, where as finasteride is common for hair loss. If someone will prescribe itβs a great option yeah.
my hair was shit for a year or two even after spiro and estradiol until I started fina, still on it and tbh too scared to stop
garbage
Too afraid to do anything. Very sad day today. I don't know if its because I'm sick or what but I haven't cried like this in a while.
It feels like I'm just broken.
I don't even have a reason to be broken. My parents are kinda kooky and could have done better- both with having better opinions and with my autism. But that shouldn't be enough to ruin me like this. Obviously I'm dysphoric but again- is it really that bad to make me like this. Hopefulyl I can get E and cross that off. spoiler self harm Relapsed recently. Want to do it again. I don't even have a reason right now other then being sad. stupid fucking reason. always a stupid fucking reason though.
can it please just stop. it hurts so bad today.
how do i get unbroken
self hate/unhinged, genuinely unwell and venting I guess
People have come back from way worse. Do you know why? Because they aren't stupid, removed pieces of shit. They tried. They cared. APpparently I dont'. I dont know what's wrong with me. why am I not better.
self talk stuff
I'm bad about that too, but you're not stupid or whatever removed was there. You're dealing with a really hard situation. Feeling shitty and dealing with all the mental shit that comes with it can prevent you from feeling capable of caring or trying, but reflecting on that like you are says to me that you want to get better, and that's important. At my lowest, I just shut down entirely and couldn't have written anything like that or even cared about trying to improve and just wallowed in apathy and anhedonia and alcoholism. You might not feel capable of being better now, but I know you want to bad enough that you will once you're able to. I think you're a sweet and funny and kind woman and I hope you can be kinder to yourself.
I know I didn't respond in uh- reasonable amount of time at all but this helped me last night, ty LocalOaf
I find it kind of wild that in the Altered Carbon books it basically says "Liberal democracy will inevitably become intrenched fascism to the point where people forget the concept of infranchisement, while unrestrained capitalism in the periphery will make a new feudalism that is hell on earth for the living, the only solution is an eternal peoples wars through the science of space Maoism" and "changing your body and gender like it's a piece of clothing is cool and good".

Hello
I got a tingly feeling inside when I started writing this message.
Still figuring myself out so not sure how much I'll post but wanted to say all of you are super inspiring and just reading your comments has helped me out
Taken to saying to myself "I'm eating for two" and lifting my breasts up.
Oh, I have you booked for... 1 hour of unrestrained happiness and feelings of self worth. Alright, you may start
That "feel like you didn't really accomplish anything today and are going to bed lonely and feeling unaccomplished" kinda sad
So i somehow managed to play Undertale before getting spoilered and
ofc i ended up accidentally murdering Toriel. And i told my emotional support puppygirl about it and she said "you can reset the game, you know? The game remembers these things." So i was in the final corridor, at the savepoint after the flashback to the house in the ruins, and that had gotten me all teary-eyed, so i hit reset and started all over again and all this brought me even closer to crying and i did everything right and spared her this time and that fucking flower goes "i know you murdered her, you're not the only one who can change reality" and all that and i just broke down. JFC. Even Disco Elysium didn't fuck with me as hard as this.
Undertale holds up tbh, I was watching gf play it a bit last night and I have all the music stuck in my head now
Now that estrogen has made me pretty happy, I picked up another hobby I had before my constant depressions and spent 4 hours writing today. I expected to feel mentally tired and was ready to turn off my brain and scroll through slop afterwards, but somehow it had the opposite effect and I feel amazingly energized
I love being trans.
uuuh new deafheaven
WOKE up to my plushies all being warm from my body heat, it's cold this morning but goddamn my body is like a furnace. Only thing different is yesterday went hard (for me) on the rowing machine, if only for my plushies might keep doing that so I can be warm for them
the woke mob (it's a bunch of pushies)
Shaking me down for bed real estate
stop right there, scriminal cum

religion/mention of religious trauma
Not religious/spiritual whatsoever (hardline (dialectical) materialist), but I'll admit that this Unitarian Universalist hosted fest is the first time that I haven't felt anxious presenting femme around cis people. Got a lot of compliments for my makeup from some kids. It warms my heart to see young people being raised in love and acceptance. Having been raised up evangelical/in right-wing areas, I've never seen that before in person.
