Why is it hard to find transgendered friends

Very true. Strength comes from your spirit.

 

Though I can press over 1000 pounds with my legs and glutes. ?

 

In all seriousness though, strength is doing what you need to do even though it's difficult. Doing what you know is right despite what others are telling you. Following your heart when it seems like the whole world is against you. Trans people embody strength. The road is difficult, but still we persevere. And thrive.

 

Hugs!

AMEN!

I'm so sorry hun. That's awful ?

It is what it is. That is part of the reason why I don't try to make friend's, and if I do. My circle is always small. Maybe 2-4 friends at the most. Also I have learned as I have gotten older. Most of my friends work normal 9-5 jobs, have family's and other things going on. While I work what ever hours I can, no kids, no wife. So finding a time they can help me with what ever never works out, and thats ok.

@Red_Lauren.

You are my hero!!!

In my eyes I don't view it has a hero action. I view it as f the world, and do what I please.

That's so right. I was told that real strength doesn't come from being physical, it comes from being able to do the things you thought you never could. The fact that we all are willing to claim we are trans, it makes us stronger that all others.

 

My strength comes from being who I know I am and not hiding as who I used to be.

I've been told how strong I am. Mainly for not transitioning (so far) and yet remaining sane! LOL

Well I view it as a hero thing. If you've ever read comic books, it is said that heroes are made, not born. That means that heroes are born from hardships, they are just normal people that got tired of being walked upon. That's you hun, you've had enough and you aren't going to let others walk all over you any more. That makes you a hero in my book.

Ok, I get it now. I wasn't too big on comics growing up. Its probably been 20 years since I even looked at one.

I want to see that very, very much. Glee!

I have a couple revisions I'm working on and I'll happily take some new pics when they're done but here's a teaser. Mind you I have made almost a full suit minus the head and feet. It's all 3d printed PLA plastic, a few hundred steel BB's for ball bearings and that's it. All press fit together, no glue, bolts, screws.

You know it, I would love to meet for coffee. I hope when it finally happens, I won't be dead waiting for my court date for my name change. lol

Oh, I love good fabrication. No idea why, I just do. I so want to see that when it's finished. I'm positively giddy!

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

      Feeling better than I did yesterday

      It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere!   Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!"   Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning. 💃

      I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. 🤭   I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.

      -It's not a sprint it's an endurance.  -It won't happen overnight. -Seek a gender therapist. -You might lose a lot of support but hang in there. If they truly loved and cared about you they would stay. -Retail therapy helps and plus it builds your wardrobe and shoes. -Makeup is an artwork. It takes lots of practice to do it right and watch YouTube videos on how to put it on or someone who is knowledgeable. -You are going to have roller coaster emotions so don't rush anything.

      You have grown more breast tissue than most some only get one size and that is it. I went from 42C to 42DD but I'm also taking supplements. It's risky to take the supplements but to me it's worth the risk.

      I'd echo some of the advice in Imma Asher's letter in the book To My Trans Sisters:   Take your time.  See yourself. Be proud.  Be strong. Indulge in the transformation.  Read more.  Put down the brow pencil.  Live.  And be happy.

      I hope that there is some kind of justice. It's very sad and it doesn't even mention the family and I could only imagine how they feel.
