Transgender Support

So, I'm a #Transgender person in a sense of being #genderfluid . But, my family is kind of weird about it sometimes. Does anybody know where I could find affordable (or even possibly free) chest binders for plus size #Ftm transgender people??

Legally changing my name (again)

Hey there, I’m Alex. I changed my name legally in 2015 to Alexander. But I go by Alex. Have been going by the name Alex for at least 10 years. When I changed my name to Alexander I thought it had to be formal, because my parents names are formal. I’ve been seriously thinking about legally changing it to just Alex. I hate being called Alexander. It’s just not me. I hate being called that. I regret changing it to Alexander. . It was stupid to change it. I never even went by Alexander at all!! Dumb!! 😅 i DONT regret changing my name in GENERAL- just the name I chose. so yeah, I guess just lookin for support? I’m an adult-24. Kinda worried about bringing it up to my parents? #Ftm #trans #Transgender #LGBTQIA #Name change #Transitioning

Being on a CNN article as an Asian Trans Masc still have me shook

Ya know I'm still shook that someone reached out to me to be included in this writing piece.
Maybe sometimes putting yourself out there in public isn't a bad thing after all especially since I'm Trans and Asian
Both demographics with very little representation in media

As big as a news outlet that CNN is crazy that there'll be a bunch of people reading it
I just hope that it reaches out to those who needs to see it the most

Having the opportunity to have my words out in such a huge platform still has me in disbelief that I could be making a difference

Completely different from the first time I was in an article
www.cnn.com/travel/article/disney-lgbtq-fans-pride-trnd/index.html (current article)

Does anyone know a good brand of noise-canceling headphones?

My boyfriend wants to take me to an event that will be loud with both people and loud music. He and I are both worried about the noise being too much for me. I don't have any noise-canceling headphones and I've been looking to get some. I worry that it will be hard for me to find one that fits though since I am quite tiny.

How does one with autism handle moving out?

I'm moving out in July to live with my boyfriend. I'm completely terrified and excited to do so but I worry badly that I will get overwhelmed. My home with my family has been my safe place for so long and now it's time to make a new safe place with my boyfriend. I know I will finally get to be myself(FTM transgender) and live with my amazing boyfriend. I'm still so terrified. How will I be able to handle all of these emotions so I don't get overwhelmed or at least so it isn't as bad?

Gender affirming care = better mental state #Ftm

White Tshirts give me so much gender euphoria

9 months of freedom I didn't know existed
9 months of appreciating the little things such as white Tshirts
9 months of trying on new clothes I was scared to try on before
9 months of not having to look at the mirror every day to make sure my chest wasnt making me dysphoric
9 months of water being against my bare skin outside of a bathroom
9 months of being able to just take off my shirt in my own home and not feel dysphoria taking over
9 months of having to buy bigger shirts because I don't have to bind anymore so I ain't slim 😅
9 months of taking so many shirtless photos because I can
9 months of happiness from a life changing surgery

Basking in the sun shirtless #justTransThings #Ftm #trans #Transgender #topsurgery

Things I never knew that I would ever do like taking into sunset without a shirt and documenting it because for years and years I thought I would never be able to be in a position that I was able to get top surgery and I'm so much more happier than I was with just having everyday life but I appreciate so much things like clothing and just having the ability and freedom to just swim whenever I want without having to worry about layers and anything like that and my dysphoria has gone down tremendously.

And people don't understand that top surgery or any other gender affirming surgery and healthcare just let us live a normal life and function properly and just enjoy the world at its fullest.
