Hello im Jett

Im very socially awkward so just bear with me. Im 20 years old and nonbinary, using they/them pronouns. I am AFAB, and still unsure about what steps i even want to take regarding transition, if any at all. I do have dysphoria, but its more related to how other percieve me than how my body feels. I hope to get some friendships and support out of this forum.

Hello Jett and welcome.  Don't worry about the social awkwardness here.  Many of us are or were due to our gender dysphoria.  Being unsure is also all right.  We all have questions about where our lives are headed.  This is a good place to talk about those things as we are a like minded group.  We are here to support each other first and foremost.  Please join in the conversation and post any questions you have.  We'll do our best! 

Cheers,

Jani

Hello again and welcome aboard!  You've figured out there's more than one way dysphoria can affect folks, so being unsure about where you want to go with it is both normal and less a barrier than it might seem to be.  We're all here to help with any questions you might have, so feel free to jump in anywhere.  We have had a large influx of new people who are non-binary, so I'm hoping to see some new and insightful conversation in that section of the forum in the near future.  (I'd love to know where y'all found us.  We've been waiting for you. :) )

 

If you haven't already, you're welcome to join our Discord server as well.  Plenty of NB folks hang out there as well, many of whom don't spend time on the forums.

 

Glad to have you with us!

Hi Jett, welcome :)

 

As Jani and Dev have said, we are all different.

 

Don't be worried.

Interestingly I was reading the other day that there were more B folks than L, G or T.  I hope I'm not conflating Non-Binary and Bi-Sexual.  If so I apologize.

It does seem this community that has gotten even less attention and care than transgender.

Non-binary folks are those with dysphoria who aren't fully compelled to transition from birth to the entirely opposite gender.  It's also a gender designation, rather than a sexual orientation.

      I'll go first.  My favorite team is the Yankees.  Loved them since I was a kid.  I was born in NYC so, yeah.  I know everyone loves to hate them, and that's OK.  I just love baseball in general.  It's a game of traditions, strategy, power, grace and skill.   Play Ball!!  ⚾   Carolyn Marie

      I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

      Hi   I’ll weigh in on being picky about food.  Yes, and I was brought up that way.  We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate.  They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too.   even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat.  In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat.   the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed.  Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it.   Willow

      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
    • MaeBe
      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.
