[QUOTE=G-foxisus;49883730]oestrogen made me worse at video games :c[/QUOTE] Sorry to say but I fail to see the correlation. You just need to get gud again.

[QUOTE=G-foxisus;49883730]oestrogen made me worse at video games :c[/QUOTE] My friends all joke about how I'm bad at parking now. It's kind of true..

My therapist isn't responding to my emails, it's making me feel a little discouraged. :(

I am super anxious posting this but is there anyone I can possibly talk to on steam or something that has gone though this?: [QUOTE=Kyle902;49879896] A lot of trans people end up thinking its just a weird fetish at first. Its normal. [/QUOTE] [QUOTE=MissingGlitch;49880128]Oh boy. Looks like I have some thinking to do. :worried:[/QUOTE] I am in a really weird spot right now where I don't know what to really think. Maybe talking to someone will lower my anxiety and get me closer to figuring stuff out. It's like I want to know the answers but at the same time I don't. This has been going on in my head for a long time. I would have asked sooner but didn't want to come out and say "It may just be a fetish to me" because I didn't know what the general mindset on that topic is.

<3 I know how you feel. Estrogen also slightly worsened my immune condition.

Twitter discussions linked to some studies on transgender siblings/rates but it's a little hard to google now that everywhere is reporting on Lilly.

My chest is 36 inches, and I haven't been able to find a bra my size =/ Like, 36A isn't a thing, from what I've seen.

Yeah. It's not common. I had to find 38A/40A at a bra store and, even then, they only had like one specific kind. Now that I'm a C cup I can find 38/40 bras with ease.

[QUOTE=PelPix123;49891252]So I'm going through a hellish time right now and I have a bit of a PSA: Hormone therapy turns you into the opposite sex. Now hold on, how is that bad? Normally it isn't, but in my case, it was kind of dumb. In my family, autoimmune disorders run in all of the female lines. I started hormone therapy and it totally worked exactly as I had hoped. It made me functionally female--including permanently contracting all of the autoimmune disorders of the other women in my family. Hormone therapy works really well and does exactly what you hope it will do. It will change your body into the opposite sex. This is the medical reality of hormone therapy. Just don't go in thinking you will experience only positive changes. Your experience as the opposite sex will be unabridged--it will not have all the shit stuff cut out.[/QUOTE] Except you won't have any ovaries, so you won't bleed out of your youknowwhat if you ever get one.

I would like to have periods, tbh. It would make me feel more feminine, since all girls have periods.

[QUOTE=Zero_;49908630]I would like to have periods, tbh. It would make me feel more feminine, since all girls have periods.[/QUOTE] I d uhh I mean like... don't girls hate having periods? They're only for people who intend to have babies.....

there's a good number of cis women that don't get periods because of reasons

[QUOTE=Zero_;49908630]I would like to have periods, tbh. It would make me feel more feminine, since all girls have periods.[/QUOTE] That's kind of a generalization, but yeah, I get what you mean.

I went to a convention last year in a long skirt and blouse. I had fun and it's got me more confident this year. So I'm thinking something that doesn't hide my figure as much. Would losing weight slim down my shoulders? They are pretty thick but they have recently gotten broader and I feel maybe it's to do with putting on weight. It's the only real time I can wear girl stuff in public without being mocked or something so i'd like to do something nice.

I also used running as an excuse to listen to black metal, because it was banned in my home. I have been transferred from one wing of the public psychiatric system to another due to age, but like two years late. Turns out The same place also hosts a sexological clinic I have never heard of and I am quite close to being offered treatment, as in actually offered treatment by my therapist. I told them I might need a bit of time to think. I was, and still am in shock to be honest. I am getting a nervous reaction when I think of it, but then again I have been really fucking down the recent months. I just honestly don't know how to handle this, I only got my dad and sister left in life and I am not sure how they are going to handle that shit now. This is a serious thing that I need to use some serious brain cells on. My head is being swarmed with thoughts and I honestly forgot what I was going to ask, but I guess I need some resources on this stuff.

[QUOTE=NeverGoWest;49910915]Run a lot, it's good for your weight, ass and heart.

I always thought running would more affect your legs than shoulders.

I just don't know a good way to lose weight in your shoulders, except eating light and healthy and wanking a lot. I am certainly not a fitness expert, just trying to be as helpful as I can.

Of course it might be surprising/shocking/whatever for them and there are gonna be some changes, but when you really get down to it, they don't really have to do that much other than just accept you for who you are. Not to say it's entirely on them, but a lot of it is, I'd say. [editline]11th March 2016[/editline] Oh and as far as resources go, there's some stuff in the OP if you haven't already checked.

When you lose fat you lose it everywhere in your body evenly for the most part. If it's muscle weight your looking to lose then just not using the muscle as much will lose the weight in a targeted area.

Transwoman: "ugh. I just want a uterus..." 50 million cis women: "HERE. TAKE IT. HAVE FUN."

So my sister has been mentioning to my family on and off that she "wants to be transgender", she's only 11 so I'm not sure if these feelings are totally genuine, but I feel bad because I sort of feel responsible for her interest in transgender people. I also feel really terrible for hoping she isn't seriously considering being transgender because I don't want her to feel similar distress I feel because of it. I'd of course support her entirely if what she says is true, but I feel bad for hoping that she's not actually feeling these feelings for real.

If your sister is transgender then there's really nothing you could've done to influence it except maybe make her realize sooner then she would've otherwise.

I want to try growing out my hair to see if I like it or not. But I feel because of my weight I might look like someone who doesn't care enough to get it cut or groom my self. I have naturally curly hair and I want to see how it will look fully grown. :frown:
