Im really sorry for spamming this wonderful community, Please don’t be mad at me for wasting space in your thread 🥺

I just wanted to make people aware that I created a Harmreduction community on this instance([email protected]) because I really think its something we need here, many trans people are turning to drugs, personally, I know more friends who are on “hard drugs” than are not, so I wanted to make a space on this instance for people to safely talk about harmreduction, reddit can be quite toxic and I feel the atmosphere here might be alot better and the people giving advice might be alot more informed already.

If you feel you can advice people, need advice or just occasionally enduldge, please join!

Also I am always there for anybody who needs advice, I am an intravenous polydrug user, amateur chemist, know a decent bit about injecting hormones right and even though I have puppy eyes, I don’t bite :)

Lots of love!, Xea

    Oh wow, no I don’t get a confidence boost from depression, really it’s the opposite. I start to eat away at myself, criticizing where I am, what I’m doing, who I am, etc. It’s a bad cycle.

    All the nihilism with none of the perks I guess lol

    I think one of the big things for me is that for a long time I’ve always wanted to feel in control.

    This part resonates the most with me. I absolutely “need” to be in control. That’s part of why I always avoided drugs, even alcohol. Why I spend so much time thinking before acting. Maybe part of why I avoid people. Meeting my partner introduced a lot of spontaneity in my life, after all they are a major influence that I can’t control. I started to relax my expectations, I’m not quite carefree or “along for the ride” just yet, but more flexible than I was.
