I hope i will be able to make it back to the Sunday night 9:00 eastern  substance abuse meeting with the new discord system.  If you have joined us in the past or have never come to a meeting but think you might have a substance issue please join us.  The trans* community has an alarmingly high rate of substance abuse but there is a solution.

Here is the link:  https://www.transgenderpulse.com/chat/

Thanks Charlize,

I finally got signed up with chat now that I don't need Java and am hoping to make the meeting tonight. Are there any special things or sign ups I need to do first? Is it in the meeting room on the menu?

 

Lots of love,

Timber Wolf?

You can post here anytime as well Regn and while it may take some time you will certainly get a response.

Even if you don't get messages on the TGAA list serve i hope you will come to the Zoom meetings as well.

They are at 7 on Mondays, 9 on Thursday, 6 Saturday and 8 on Sundays....all eastern time.  There is no need to use speak or use your video but listening can certainly help.  It certainly helped me.

Hi. I've been trying get into the chat room to chat with others who are in transition and dealing with all the aspects of living life and facing our issues without hiding in the bottle or in drugs and all the struggles and rewards that transitioning in recovery can bring all of us. I just don't know what I need to do to get there... kind of like when I first got sober and people guided me along the path of their recovery so I could chose my own. How the heck do I access the chat service here! LOL

I'm a newbie to this site (I guess you've figured that out?) and although I've downloaded the Discord app, installed it and registered, introduced myself in the Introductions Forum - Transgender Biography - I still cannot seem to access the chat service. 

 

I throw my hands up in the air,

I need your help, whomever's there,

So if you have some time to spare,

I'd like your expertise! Please Share?

 

Thanks,

Julie J

(a sober somewhat happy trans woman in transition :)

I'm sorry it is so difficult to get into the chatrooms.  I've had difficulties over the years and would still have issues without help.  I'm just not that great at using a confuser.  

Perhaps you could send a PM to Dev and she could help you get in.  I know i had to download Discord? and now seem to be able to blunder in without issue.

If your interested in a great trans meeting we also have them on Zoom and the information on how to get there is in this forum on a different thread.

Glad your here and hope to see more of you.

 

Hugs,

I think I just successfully created the Discord account and made it into TGPulse chat. But not sure. It’s pretty empty in there.

Please remember if you feel you may have an issue with substances that there is a weekly meeting here at the chat rooms meeting room.  There are also AA meetings for trans*folks at TGAA.  While those are for alcoholics most of us have been involved with many intoxicants.  Please PM me with any questions.  

 

Hugs,

Our Trans Pulse chat rooms substance abuse meetings continue every Sunday @ 9:00 eastern.  It is usually relatively quiet so there is plenty of time to chat.  Hope to see you there.

Me too, from Leah to Lee H, unless someone in the chain disapproves. I've been thinking, Zoom is smarter than me, insisting that I log on as "Lee". Maybe it's really just quite prescient. If so, I have a lot of questions for the Wizard of Zoom.

Really, I want to change because I want to start transitioning in earnest with HRT soon, I think. On this journey, I want to practice being myself, and not hiding longer than I have to. [Coming out timing issues abound, of course].

So, anyhow, see ya' at the meeting.

Unfortunately Sunday Evenings are out for me due to Trans Chorus of Los Angeles meetings / rehearsals.  I was a mod there too before I found my local chosen family which helps me with the service they need.

      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.

      @Ivy that is a great point! Great post!

      -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.
