    First I figured out that the only major difference between "man-boobs" and 'girl' boobs is the amount of muscle in the former. Reasoning "why not", I tried to see if said muscle can be massaged 'out'... Apparently it can. Surprisingly well.


    That (along with my hair being unusually cooperative) had me feeling pretty confident... I even smiled at a mirror and had my sister take a picture of me.

    ... Then I broke a nail. Right down to the thumb-tip.

    I proceeded to be pretty severely depressed for a while... When I told my cousins why, they acted all surprised and said "it'll grow back!"... Without thinking about how long a couple of weeks is to someone with nothing to do.

    After that, though, I glimpsed myself in a full-body mirror and actually had to ask if it was one of those ones they put in photo places to make you look thinner (it wasn't).


    The picture went fairly well... Though I'm less confident than I was yesterday.

    That is a fabulous and loud mop of orange hair. You ought to celebrate it!

    I'm sorry about your broken nail; I feel your pain, trust me. Did you know that you can buy nail glue, though? It's surprisingly effective. It saved my life so many times in my long-nail days.

    It's a tangled mess at the best of times.

    One thing I've slowly come to learn, if it helps at all: remember that monster comic somebody posted a while ago? -- where it was like "how confident everyone else appears/how confident everyone else is?" Even the most seemingly ordinary folks, whose sex and gender are perfectly congruent and whose sexual orientation is uncomplicated -- it can be a tangled fraught mess for them as well. It is emotional, subjective, and unable to be expressed or understood to its depth.

    Not to diminish the significance of your sorrow, of course. I can only wish you well in the untying.

    Question. Are there any trans men on here who were bi/gay who find that after T they become straight?

    My (now ex) partner of 8 years claims such a thing has happened he was a little bi, but mostly only interested in men, and now he is only interested in women. It's killing me. I never had to consider my sexuality, I assumed I was straight. He came out as male. After a brief period of angst and questioning, realised that I was attracted to men in general (not just him) and saw this as a good thing. Now after 2 1/2 years of T, he says he's only interested in women.

    It hurts so much... I was wondering if anyone else had any experience of this or whether it is bovine dung and not related to the testosterone at all.

    Rule 0: The Gamesmaster is always right.

    Maybe your sexuality is more fluid than most? That could mess up attempts at finding a box that fits all the time, since the contents change over time.

    I don't really know how to overcome problems, especially ones so complicated, other than utter distraction. But I do know that I want to help!

    *Help-hug*

    I don't really have any experience with being confused about my sexuality, though, so I hope I don't accidentally make things worse. ;_;

    For the few people I've known personally that have had to take them, and the many accounts I have read otherwise, antidepressants seem like a bad brew that create more problems than they solved. I feel fortunate never to have had to take them.

    I have ambivalent feelings on them. On the one hand, they zombified me successfully when I needed to stop using my brain.
    On the other hand, I don't want to ever take them again. I like my lucidity. And I want even less to reach once again the state where I would need them again.
    So, in short, I wish no one here will have to take these in the future, but I support every single one of you who does need antidepressants. Because while it's far from a perfect solution, it's often far better than going without, and should be taken properly.

    Likewise. But I do know both they and the antipsychotics take away my "edge." I'm still smarter than the average bear, but I don't have the same spark.

    If I didn't have to worry about my life falling apart if I stopped taking them, I'd be off them tomorrow.

    I don't feel like my antidepressants have done anything for me besides ruining my appetite. And taking away the ability to cry. Can't say much for my sexuality because yeah.
    I wonder if I should try not taking them for a while. It's not like I'd kill myself, and at least I'd be able to eat.

    Edit: Yeah, I guess I'll talk to the psychiatrist about it next time I see her.

    Have you tried exploring the places on the internet where they have pictures and videos relevant to this? That might help you in determining what you like.

    No fair! I got your eating! Well, it might be the fatigue, since mostly between my fatigue flaring up and being put on the antidepressants, I slept, so maybe I was going to eat a load anyway. But since I went on the higher dose I've been putting weight on.

    I think it's always a good idea to keep checking in with whoever it is (GP, consultant, psychiatrist) to make sure the dose is right. No point filling your body with random drugs if they're too little to solve the problem anyway or more than you need! Or wrong altogether. Or whatever.

    Yeah, I've been on my low end (around 76-78 kilos) since I started these antidepressants. Though that's probably the eating less combined with not exercising as much. I actually tend towards 80-82 kilos when I exercise more.
