Just a check in to see how other fellow LGBT members are doing.

I'm feeling great. Definitely got that weekly Estrogen shots and progesterone pills. Moods swings or not, I will come after those who hurt my friends. Yeah. Feel free to post time to time how you're feeling.

on the trans front happy (well more like just ok), struggling more on the auti front these days.

Estradiol back available (alternative not high enough dose so had to use both... stick better but skin doesn't like the glue and itches). Pharmacy told me I already ordered blocker shots for next month (last time ordered twice apparently) so properly prepared :D

Generally speaking, I think...ok? I mean, this is the week where I'll find out if my contract is going to be extended or if it's my final working week. So, that's a lot.

I've been really getting back into my hobbies lately. I started animating, practicing drawing and drafting a story that I've been working on.

Also, I've been trying to be more active in my media consumption VS passive. Keeping notes on what I like.

I've been thinking about how I'm almost in my late twenties. How this decade has largely been focused on my working life and not really about my life outside of work.

My love life doesn't really exist. Sure, I'm on apps but I get bored of them easily. It is weird to be at a point where some people my age are getting married, meanwhile I haven't had my first kiss.

I keep having weird dreams. It's like I'm trying to tell myself something.

The wanderlust is very real and I should go to more places just for the sheer sake of it.

I'm ok with my sexuality and that doesn't cause me depression, but I'm still quite depressed and anxious. Sometimes the sadness hits hard and I return back to basic functions. I guess it could be worse; could be better. Thank you for asking about us - I wish I had more cheerful news to report.

Ohhhh Exciting. I take my weekly shot on Tuesdays per week. My friends says I'm lucky that I don't have to take blockers. But this is very exciting. I get the talk about "how dare you use autism as a excuse" everyday from family and I usually just go into zone out period. I think I am just tired of being told by people what I can or can't do and even with my diabetes.
Family: Stop Overeating
Me: uh......(The one time I decide to eat is considered overeating. Normally I just don't eat enough everyday due to maintaining the 90-110 bg/dL target. Calorie Intake is like 1000ish per day when they aren't around.)

I don't like apps because most of the time, people are just aren't real enough to me. I do a lot of more engaging stuff with friends on discord and it doesn't matter about having a love life. Could just have fun times hanging with people you want to hang out with. We got all the time in the world so just going through life casually is fine. I do suggest if you wanna travel more, go for it. Take small steps at a time. I'm going to visit more places too and not stay at home all the time like I did before. Thanks for checking in.

Don't worry about it. I get those too and it's normal (For Us, obviously)

I'm cisgender and straight, but what kind of animation do you like?

I also don't have a love life. My mom and my NT sister would never be okay with it.

@ All LGBT Members of Wrong Planet: Hopefully all of you are doing well.

All good here. Found a love for reading books again with physical pages you can turn!
I have 39.5yrs of previously undiagnosed ASD/C to catch up on.
Have a good rest of your weekends.

I like 2D animation. Ruby Gloom was a favourite of mine as a kid.



Along with Mona the Vampire



Danny Phantom



and Jacob Two-Two.



I was a little bit of a morbid kid. I liked to write horror stories with ghosts and demons. Frankly I still do.

Seeing independent projects on YouTube made me want to try animation. Plus Netflix shows such as Haunted Hotel.
