I use ones for heavy flow because mine can get very bad with a lot of clots, but mine are so all over the place that I actually haven't had a heavy one since getting them to test them out. Sorry I don't have more helpful information for you.
I have heard menstrual cups are really good, but I don't have any personal experience with them.

I bought period panties a while back and they've been more tolerable for me. I found the ones from Modibodi to be the most comfortable but also pretty expensive. Here, at least, the grocery stores usually sell other brands which are cheaper.

Haha, apparently the original saying is "Home, James, and don't spare the horses". My mum told me it's because a lot of carriage drivers were called James, and don't spare the horses means to be quick about it. I don't know if your parents said it differently because it amused them that way or some other reason, but I suppose the idea is there's no time to feed the horses since we're in a hurry.

Mum had a few:

"Home, James"

"Lead on, McDuff"

"You're lucky I love you"

"You're big enough and ugly enough to take care of yourself"

Steam, at least, tells you whether a game contains AI. Although it is self-reported by the publisher so maybe there's a chance they would lie.

I was feeling very anxious about a couple of things. Maybe it's related to my anxiety?

As an Aussie I initially assumed you meant licorice bullets

 

I hate bathing (ASD) but I do it every day because it is Required and Expected. Most of the time I get in and do what I need to and get out, but occasionally I get this urge to be really thorough and scrub really hard with the rough sponge. Does anyone else get these random urges? I don't have OCD as far as I know and it doesn't happen often.

I still haven't managed to get a job and it's wearing on me more every day. I'm living with my parents currently and they refuse to use my name/pronouns, they refuse to even try. I haven't been able to start hormones, my dysphoria is bad and I feel like no one takes it seriously. I'm spiralling into depression more each day despite my meds. I don't know how to keep going. My partner supports me but he's half a world away, and most of the time seems too busy with his own life to talk to me. There aren't even any support groups around because we live in Woop Woop.

Did anyone else cycle through them, or just me?

 

I hope it's okay for me to post here. I really want to wear a binder but I struggle with the ones you pull over your head. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for ones that you can wrap around sort of? I know there are some with zips or clasps or other methods, I'm just not sure what's good. I'm a bit overweight, so I'm worried that it might sit weird or roll up or be uncomfortable, and I worry that ones with underarm fastening would be a sensory nightmare, but also that front fastening would be visible. Does anyone have any experiences to share that might be helpful? Thanks in advance.

 

My gender therapist told me this in response to something I said referencing my chest. It was a while ago but it's stuck with me. I'm wondering what you all think of this comment? The comment felt disqualifying, like I was less male for calling my chest a "breast", or I would be seen as less male because of it, but I can be pretty sensitive so I might be overthinking and she might be right that men don't talk like that.
