[QUOTE=Shotz;49246838]I nearly chose Eliza because I thought it was cool but someone told me names with Zs in them are "an obvious giveaway that you're trans" so there's that[/QUOTE]
Uh, that's stupid.
[QUOTE=Xonax;49247088]Uh, that's stupid.[/QUOTE]
Yeah that is stupid, now that I think about it Eliza is pretty cool, I'll go with Lucy Eliza Second-name-that-i'm-not-posting-here-because-doxing-but-it-begins-with-M-so-like-I-can-be-lem forever
Sound catchy!
[QUOTE=Baboo00;49248283]Also I'm toying with using the name Lilith, and then using Lily as a nickname. But I haven't really started transitioning, no idea if the name will even fit.[/QUOTE]
Lily is a good name.
Then again, I'm biased. One of my best friends, ever, had been going by Lily for a while before she settled on a different name.
Had a mental breakdown and lost my job on the second day.
Trying really hard to find a reason not to jump in front of a bus right now.

Shaving is so frustrating aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. :cry:
How many pain killers do I need to take until epilating doesn't hurt?

epilating is a waste of time and is more painful than it needs to be. I waxed all the hair off my legs and it was 1/8th as painful as using an epilator.
Epilating is a straight up gimmick. I'm never doing it again.
[QUOTE=Shark Bones;49237583]I'm getting rid of my given middle name in favor of two new ones. I'ma have four names.
Lucy Clara Carmella Thomas :3c[/QUOTE]
My middle name is Keith and god do I hate that name. At least my legal name is genderless.
Still, I'm gonna change my first name to Kari and my new middle name will be Piper.

it does work, though
but i agree in that i've almost never touched my epilator after i got it
some people are just lucky and don't feel much pain from it

fuck shaving
all its good for is 12 or so hours of soft, smooth skin
and then the hairs start growing back
my skin itches, it turns red, i get disgusting bumps everywhere
And then I have body hair again and its gross and I have to find time to shave again and it sucks

Applying lotion after shaving can lessen the irritation.
I tried epilating, but its way too painful.
Now I just shave with a razor every other day. It's not painful whatsoever.
is that hair removal cream stuff good
depends. if you have thick hair (usually pre-hrt) it wont really work that well
[QUOTE=gtanoofa;49265028]You know, it's kind of hard to tell your mom you are not her beloved "handsome man" and basically come out of the closet as trans.
The fact that my anti-depressants(which she also doesn't know, i'm taking) ran out and i've been crying at random for 3 days straight doesn't make it any easier.

"Hey mom, i'm into men, i'm transgender and have been depressed for 4 years. Currently contemplating suicide. happy birthday btw."
best bday present.[/QUOTE]
Its never a good idea to go off your anti-depressants, especially cold turkey. I know this sounds cliche but committing suicide is most certainly NOT the correct answer. Trust me Ive been there (3 suicide attempts) and it isn't worth it.
[QUOTE=gtanoofa;49265582]I haven't made any plans yet, so[/QUOTE]
Getting back on your anti-depressants is probably a good idea. What did they put you on?
[QUOTE=bitches;49262349]it does work, though

Im not saying it doesn't work im saying that waxing for me was ten times less painful. last time I epilated I had to bite on a towel it was horrible.
[QUOTE=KOS-MOS;49262964]Applying lotion after shaving can lessen the irritation.[/QUOTE]
Nope. Irritation is equivalent whether I put on lotion or not.

Get a sharper razor and some better shaving cream is the only advice i have
im back!
what a long 3 day ban that was
how is everyone
[QUOTE=Judas;49270237]im back!

well, yesterday my dog died,
ᶦ ʰᵒᵍ ᵗᶦᵉᵈ ᵃ ʰᵒ, ᵗᶦᵉᵈ ʰᵉʳ ᶦᶰ ᵃ ᵇᵒʷ
Had the worst experience ever and lost my job while being traumatized and interrogated for shit I didn't even do and crying my eyes out the whole time only to find out that the accusations may or may not even be true and could have just been a ploy to get me to admit to something I didnt do because they suspected it MIGHT have been me or something. I dont know how I'm going to pay for my bills or my brain medication this month ($250) since i still dont have insurance in this state yet. And If the higher up was not bullshitting and actually will be contacting the police then I'll have to go through so much shit. At least my manager told me that he never does but I just have this horrible feeling of dread that wont go away.
I really hate everything right now. But I have Salem (Judas) so its really not that bad as long as she's there beside me.
Came out to my mother and father last night. So far my father hasn't responded by my mum replied in the morning and she's been amazing. I'm awful at being subtle, and just wanted to be blunt so it probably sounded horrible, but it's done now.
My message to them:
[QUOTE]Mum and Dad.
I write this message to express thoughts, feelings and words long held, better spoken but would likely fall on deaf ears, to be misconstrued as a joke or taken without seriousness.
For my life I've never felt like I had a place in the world, I never quite fit. My body never felt right and I worked out why. I've always felt like I've had to hide who I am, to protect others, so I wouldn't hurt their feelings or make them uncomfortable. It's made me depressed, shut-in, suicidal at times. I've hid who I really am and put on a show for people all my life.
Mum, Dad. I was born into the wrong body, I'm a woman, and I've been hiding my entire life. As much as you might like to think this isn't some 'phase' it's who I am, and now that I am independant I no longer have to hide myself from the world, from my friends and family. This isn't a fetish, it's not an illness, it's nothing to do with my sexuality. It's about who I am, and who I've always been.
I'm telling you this because I'm coming out, I want to be able to start living my life, no longer pretending to be someone I'm not. I'm attending a gender clinic already, I've chosen a name for myself; Robyn, most of my close friends have known for years, and some family members have known for a while too. I'm intending to come out at work and in the new year finally start being myself.
Lizzy has known for a couple years and it's not fair for me to keep forcing her to lie, and if it wasn't for her I'd never have made it this far. She's been my rock through all this.
Please don't feel hurt by this, it may come as a shock but don't feel you've lost a son, think of it as gaining a daughter. I know this is a lot to take in, so please take you time, as much as you need. I hope you can accept this, even if you don't understand, it will all make sense in time. I will still be here when you're ready. Know that I will always love the both of you.
Love,
Robyn.[/QUOTE]
And her reply:
[QUOTE]My darling Robyn, I want you to know that it hasn't come as a shock to me, I think I knew this deep down from the time I was carrying you in my womb (hence choosing Ami or Alicia as names just in case) being your mum I only wish that you'd felt comfortable/able to say sooner. I want you to know that I support you in anything/everything you do in life as being a parent means that you have unconditional love for you children. We are all but spirits/souls and sometimes it happens that we are in the wrong shells. You need to do what you have to as we only have one life and it should be a happy life. Just wanted to add, that I love you as my child. Talk soon Mum xxxxxxxx[/QUOTE]
Also had a haircut the other day, and next up is hair dye tonight hopefully.
