Another week, another thread. Go out there and have a good one everyone! 
Omfg I told my coworker I liked her earrings and she gave me a pair 😭😭😭
This is the same coworker who asked if I'd want to be a woman a while back 
I think it's happening, people 
trying to alternate which leg i do my injections in. unfortunately my dumb ass can't actually remember which one i did last week so actually i'm just guessing
You could try using a sticky note placed near or with your supplies. It’s what I did when I was starting injections.
One option would be to make a reminder on your calendar scheduled to reoccur every 4 weeks for left and another for right. We can never remember where my brother got his last shot either (not HRT). Nor does he remember how long its been since his last one, so we just guess on that too.
I'm quitting Effexor. This shit sucks. I do not wish effexor withdrawals on anyone. Still got 30 days left of this
Been taking sooo many selfies lately. No idea if my face passes, but I sure do look cute :3 I love being a girl 
My breasts are itching but it's like way beneath the skin somewhere so i can't scratch it. it's driving me a bit insane
dysphoria inducing stuff i should have tagged long ago, sorry
today's trans girl emotions: getting jealous of 8 year old girls because they got to be girls when they were eight and you never did 
This hits me right where it hurts. One facet of dysphoria that may never be fixed for me. Just that and one other thing :\
it's a very, very, very real feeling but at the same time, like. damn i'm out here getting an emotional beatdown by looking at an eight year old. this is some 
tier stuff
I'm putting this behind spoiler tags cause it can trigger others' dysphoria
Yeah. It's one of those things that just hurts. No matter what I do in life, I will never be able to experience what it's like growing up. And you know what? It fucking sucks.
The other thing that gets me real badly? Knowing that I'll never be able to experience motherhood. Seeing someone with their child just kills me. I'll never be able to raise a kid of my own. I'll never be able to experience pregnancy. And that fucking sucks too. Sure I guess I could adopt, but like, it's horrendously expensive and the laws aren't exactly friendly towards same sex/trans couples. Add on that I'm in my mid-30s and that shit ain't ever happening. Fucking hells.
I'm gonna go drown my sorrows now.
LGBT parents have it rough

Hopefully you can get there anyways.
There's definitely a bias against LGBT+ couples and non-biological parents. I know my mom had to go through a lot with us. Her wife-at-the-time gave birth to us via IVF, so no adoption needed and they still had to go through a ton to prove they're "deserving" to be parents where other parents don't have to do anything except be fertile and have sex to prove they're parent-material. Things like income, showing they had a house already prepared for a child (before they'd even attempt IVF), etc. Fortunately, she was able to get custody of us (100%, not split) when there was a custody/divorce case, but like even her dad was telling her he'd traffic us to Mexico and raise us there cause there's no way a Texas court would side in her favor (she had already lost a child to a biological parent, but she didn't even have formal custody rights - she was just the one who raised the child for years when the parents decided to abandon her or something - idk my mom doesn't talk about it). But she never gave up. I don't think you should yet either.
Thank you. I appreciate it. It isn’t something I want to give up on, but my circumstances are heavily against it. Trans, lesbian, and poly. It’s unlikely the state would ever allow it. Guess we will see what happens when we stabilize financially.
Day two of pill cutter gang in which I take 12.5mg of cypro, down from 25. Will probably reduce dosage again sometime although cuttng those tablets gets kinda silly...
I really like the idea that I can take miniscule amounts of cypro and just vibe. It sounds good to me.
bitching
Uh it would be gooder if I could just not take antiandrogens, one of the only things I hate about being trans is the medicinal reliance. It's fine realistically, day to day, but it worries me, anxiety. Diy orchiechtomy when? Taking a gram of cypro to stop testosterone production wholesale when???
I know I posted a few months back abt the person I was thinking about breaking up with and we did end up doing so since it was becoming more apparent we were going to be on different tracks in life. We're still close friends though, and we continue to have a good time in my tabletop game
dysphoria/weight/ed posting
Holy shit I need to lose weight 
I feel so fat and terrible. The past like day and a half has been so good and now I'm crying out of no where. I just feel so big.
Honestly I don't even know how to lose weight "properly". I mean I know like, eat right and that shit but like how am I actually going to do it 
I don't even know what my target weight should be. If I ever commit to it I'm just going to end up starving myself again. I just want to be thin and flat like a board. I just keep eating too much 
Why I am so fucking large.
(just to clarify my tone, I'm not necessarily asking for weight loss advice. You can still post it if you want but I'm really just venting)
I love that I have boobs now, it's just so gender affirming! I love seeing my body get more and more feminine 
Whenever hutterite or Mennonite (whichever) women come in with their day surgery kids they always ask me if I'm married or have children, it's kinda cute. They didn't before when I passed TERRIBLY.
I'm going back to undergrad! Pretty excited tbh
How are we today, trans comrades of hexbear? I've been having an awful time with my health lately so I just want to chat and read about other peoples' days
my tits hurt posting:
i feel like my tits have grown for no other reason than it's suddenly a sensitive area now. Nothing has actually grown yet, or if it has, i am way too early on HRT to have any remotely noticeable physical growth there yet, but they feel bigger now somehow and that's wild
You'll get there. Just give it a little time.
i am way too early on HRT to have any remotely noticeable physical growth there yet,
I sorta feel the same way, but there's definitely an very slight asymmetry for me now that I don't think it was like that 2 weeks ago. No soreness though: I feel scammed!

Lesbians deserve to be cuddled and kissed
God, it would be so nice to have a girlfriend 
My gay heart yearns for love 
one day
Aspirational future ✨ 
byeah 
got to remind myself that i deserve anything, which is very difficult but something i'm working on
but damn what i wouldn't do for girl cuddles
Day 15 of telling my wife she is cute until she stops saying no 
It's been a rough few days, but I got my first dresses in the mail yesterday. They are very pretty and (I think) flattering on me :)
I usually sad post about being trans, but I've actually been feeling pretty good about it today. It's hard to explain. It's not that I'm happy with being a guy, but the idea of being transfem hasn't seemed so bad.
I don't know just thought it was worth sharing something positive.
Thank you everyone who has helped comfort me when I'm feeling sad, I know I don't respond to everyone but I always appreciate it a lot.
Love to see this 
Being transfem is rad!
Being trans is rad as hell, ask how I know. 
Feeling a dread that I might never find somewhere I am comfortable merely existing. It is either that the Transgender Affliction is an "affront to god", "unnatural" or else it's "western decadence" or "irrational"- each as reductionist and ahistorical as the other. No where on earth is safe and I don't see that changing in my lifetime. Castro famously spoke of a "revolution within a revolution" as it pertained to combating misogyny and homophobia in revolutionary times; I am tired of fighting. But I will be fighting for the rest of my days, won't I? If we miraculously achieve the fully automated luxury future, I will still be fighting. When can I live? When I am old and approaching death, rotten and bitter to everyone for their endless chauvinism while I was alive? Seems like it.
I keep wanting to play Celeste, but every time I see something I can relate to or see in the trans experience, it wells up emotions and I find it hard to continue. Really wanna finish playing it too, because that gameplay is solid.
Had some random middle-aged dude hollering at me across the street to come over to him yesterday. I've gradually changed my presentation to be more feminine the last few months, along with HRT, and this is the first time something like this happened.
Instead of uncomfortable, it made me feel really proud and happy, but now I feel uncomfortable about feeling proud and happy about it and it's just weird :/
