imagine telling a cissoid that you are forced to cut & stab yourself weekly in specific ways or else some man will come and murder you.
But if you tell anyone, they will send “help” who will just take away the tools you use to keep the man away. leaving you defenceless so he just comes and murders you anyway
i don’t want to die. i only keep taking putting up with this torture cuz i know if i dont at least try to be a woman, ill kms and die male
sorry i’m spiralling. i had to do one of those stupid fingerprick blood tests today and it was awful. i fucked it up the first time too so i had blood everywhere on my table and clothes. i had to do 3 fingers before i finally gave enough. i cried before i remembered i still had to inject too.
it took 4 hours, most of which was just building up the courage
For diabetes?
needed to check my e & t levels for hrt
Waow, how do you do it with a prick? I thought you needed blood tests for hormones, like, a proper one where they draw blood outta you
oh wait sorry im stupid
i use the needles in the picrel for hrt
and then i did the stupid finger ones for the blood test
looks like this just even cheaper
Humm, interesting, what are they called? I could just do this instead of going to the hospital if i can get them, it’s such a bother…
fingerprick tests. i got mine from sapphicbison. theyre ran by a trans charity & is the cheapest option out there in the uk
i wish i could go hospital for them instead. im a wuss though that faints at blood so it took me a while to finish (literally just 1ml needed) and i kept panicking :(
Thanks for the info. i’ve never felt bad with blood so i can’t really relate but have a hug from me 🫂
