I hope everybody's had a great week so far. I wanted to make some kinda post to engage everyone in a casual context. I was originally going to ask in the title "who has been really supportive in your life recently?" So if you want to answer that I suppose you can lol.

I myself have to work all weekend but its the evening shifts so I'll be fine. My best friend has been especially supportive of me lately, she took me out shopping when I was in between paychecks and even bought me a couple crop tops I wanted. I really appreciate her being so willing to do those kinds of things with me even tho she has social anxiety. Having supportive people in your helps a lot.

Not much has happened to me, but my estradiol dose got increased, which is nice. Also, when I went in for bloodwork, the doctor that drew my blood called me pretty, so I feel good about that.

Tell me about it. I've had full body acne for almost 20 years now. It slowed down a lot a few years ago, but never goes away.

Busy week for me. Busy and exhausting getting ready (at work) for school to start next week. Hoping to be able to relax and enjoy the weekend because the next couple of weeks are going to be busy as well.

I've been kind of scared and anxious about the fact that I'm about to be meeting the only person that I've been able to be completely open to about my neurodiversity and nonbinaryness irl tomorrow.

They have been extremely important in making me feel safe and accepted while I was going trough quite severe gender crises, was relearning who I truly am and discovering that most of the feelings that I had previously attributed to depression, low self-confidence etc. were actually just dysphoria.

Talking with them has started to become quite important part of my life and I care about them a lot so I'm kind of scared that I'll disappoint them even tough I am quite certain that we will get along well irl too.

Had my intake televisit for hrt. Got my prescription written and did my initial blood test. I looked at the lab results, and I am pretty sure I am diabetic so that kinda sucks. (Honestly not surprised though.) Oh well, knowledge is power I can use to improve my health.

So, little bad, but still would say an overall good week.

(Gonna add this is an enby journey, hope everyone doesn't mind me hanging around here.)

It's been a week for me. Very glad it's over.

But, I'm looking forward maybe rejoining my local community radio station and getting back on air

I'm going to a club/party/thing and I'm super excited! The kids are super supportive too. I bought a women's ticket to the event (5$ vs 40$), and then had anxiety, cuz while I dress the part, my face leaves a bit to be desired. It's too angular, and my facial hair grows back so fast. It's so dark, too, I hope my kid can help me cover it when he helps me do foundation and lipstick this evening. But, I emailed the organizer, and they basically said grats for coming out, we look forward to seeing you there, so that's super awesome!

I managed to find me the cutest kinda Gothic outfit at a thrift store that the cashier helped me put together, but the shoes are a bit hard to walk in. I need to practice walking and driving in fancier women's shoes! I've tried posting pictures here, b/c I think I look really good in it, but connect keeps saying posting pics isn't working?

Tonight is either going to be amazing, or I'm going to royally fuck it up by being too much of a wallflower. Let's hope I don't do the latter.

finished my internship and expecting to see a gender therapist next week!

[-] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

My voice is still broken from straining which is really stressing me out. I did get to do some stuff I find interesting for work and hang out IRL with my friends which was nice

My therapist is my number one cheerleader in my life right now. I'm so grateful for them. They really help me see the successes I make when it's so hard for me to do so on my own

I hope work isn't too stressful for you @LadyAutumn this weekend!

[-] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Thank you โค my weekend has been nice and relatively calm thus far :) lots of time to practice my voice while I get some work done on some projects I've been putting off.

Make sure to give your voice some rest breaks when you can. I so relate to how supportive and amazing a good therapist can be. They really can make all the difference, and im happy to hear that you're finding them so helpful ๐Ÿ˜Š

That's good!!

I found this herbal tea called 'Throat Cooler' that's been doing wonders for me thankfully
