Since last time i posted that I needed help... Well... There's I go...

1. Quit smoking in a cold turkey and it is all good. I haven't touch since two days ago after I got done reading the website... It is a wake up call after trying to find out why I was having chest pain when I smoked.

2. I threw out all the alcohol drinks in the trash and never picked them up since the last time I post on here. I asked my friend to send me video through e-mail for me to review it again to be sure.... I hated the way I acted and made me think twice and a lot of "what if this happened or that happened?" and I thought to myself, "Throw them away and never drink again... which I do have some craving for it but no.. the way I acted on that video that my friends took of me... I was ashamed of myself and I threw away what i drank. I ain't going to look back.

3. I am fighting for my health because since I lost all of my hearing in my left ear and afraid for my hearing in my right ear and top of that... Chest pain... because I had been smoking and drinking since in my 25th b-day. Now I can say I am working for a better life...

I am doing it for my well being and Try to fight my urges that I have. With your support and my family's supports, I know I can't do it alone.... I am also working on quiting doing snus.... I am down on my last pace of snus... I have been dipping since I was 26 yrs old. I am trying... which it is hard... I am working on it hard as i can...

Thanks for your supports and comments.... A lot of them are making me think twice before too late...

I am really happy for you A.S. Keep it up. I've quit both so know what you are going through. Watch your alcohol withdrawal closely. Here is a link on the withdrawal symptoms when quitting alcohol. Watch the severe symptoms closely. If you start getting these symptoms you need to stop going cold turkey and seek a doctor, who will give you medication when you quit.

One suggestion for smoking is start chewing gum. It gets the nicotine taste out of your mouth.

Each day is a triumph and one day closer to breaking the chains of addiction. Please keep posting about your progress, it can be an inspiration to others who have to go through the same process.

Love Susan

Good for you A.S. I knew you could do it. You made it this far so don't give in now. Every day will get a little better, big guy.

Love and a big hug for you, keep it up the worst is over.

      PM any or several of the Moderators or Administrators if you want to have something changed due to spelling errors, or if you simply want to have an entire post deleted.  We do not allow members to edit their own posts since there are some items we restrict from being posted.  Those things are in the Community Rules and if a Staff member has removed something because of the rules we do not want it coming back.  https://www.transgenderpulse.com/community-rules/   Use the PM system to contact us and include a link to the post you want changed.

      Do I ever feel? There isn't a single minute that goes by that I feel that way. I have such a strong hate for what I have that there isn't a word out there for it.

      Are members allowed to edit or delete their post? I can't delete or remove my post if there are misspelled words.

      I already tried that. Either too old like 60's and 70's or married. Not many people who would want to date a trans woman in dead red Mississippi. Maybe once things calm down just get a Mustang GT and just give up on it. Both are going to bring joy and pain. At least I could learn and share my love of cars with my kids when they get that old. I wouldn't even know what to do if someone said they wanted me. I would've already been thinking in my mind they are just going to ghost me so what's the point. I just don't know what to do anymore. I tried putting myself out there online and out in person. I haven't tried a bar yet although that's probably a bad idea. Maybe just to experience it again. I haven't been to one since 2013. The only problem I see is I'm not a night owl for sure. I go to bed at 8-830. My expectations were just that I wouldn't get rejected last. I have been able to handle a good bit of it but this one really hurt. I guess that's what happens when you have some hopes and expectations. It's not like I have another friend IRL to talk about this. She is my only one. I wished I didn't put myself out there.

      Political candidate, who linked pedophiles with LGBTQIA+, gains preselection approval.

      By VickySGV · Posted

      As one who had to deal with the Porn/Adult Entertainment business as commercial, taxpaying businesses on a professional level, I can say that they are in it for money and the highest percentage of their income comes from ultra conservative areas where adequate Medical and Mental Health Profession and University Science instruction on Trans issues are banned.    It makes me wonder how much porn literature is hidden behind the 13 Bibles and Bible Study guides on some people's family bookshelves.

      Do you ever feel trapped in a body that doesn't feel like yours?

      There's the old thing of getting out and getting involved in things in the community and meeting people that way. Does your church have a food pantry? Does it have service opportunities you could plug into otherwise? You might run into someone that way.

      Well that didn't go well. She said she is intentionally single. When will I just stop thinking about putting myself out there. It really hurt but rejection and getting ghosted is just my second language apparently. The one person I have told all my dark secrets and didn't run off. At least we are friends. I'm happy only when I'm sleeping and that is it because things actually go my way from time to time. Just another wonderful day of me. SMDH!

      In their minds, yes, unless it is clearly, consistently, forcefully articulated by those who represent trans people that we are not.  I'm not sure who that would be.

      So, this proves that we're all  pedophiles? I suspect that the majority of pedophiles are probably cis.   Yeah, Alexander the Great was probably queer.  What does this have to do with me needing to pee?   I am so tired of this ___.  I raised 8 kids and never molested any of them - unless you count changing diapers without closing my eyes.  Yeah… so tired.   It makes me wonder what is actually on these people's minds.
