RULES:

I am looking for mods!

1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

Dk the correct place to post this but…..Yh

I feel like 💩 everyday. The ugly duckling out of my sisters. The freak of the family.

I hate feeling too ugly to actually do anything everyday. See anyone one…and like I’m just wasting my life away

I hope I get approved for it. It feels a bit like The Substance and that movie freaked me out.

Any info on the topic would be helpful especially if you have personal experience or are in a similar boat.

Edit: a few months ago I was talking with my brother who’s a couple yrs younger about taking testosterone cuz I saw a video of a gym girl saying she’d taken it and thought it might help me and he said best not to cuz once you take it you can never say you’re “natty”…

The, depending on your insurance possibilities I'd go check with a doctor. It's not unheard of to have chemical imbalances, I know a person firsthand. And she really required specific stuff to be OK at all.

Also therapy would be the mental side. For me it was neurodivergence.
