 ummmmm yeah the reason I went off hormones 5 weeks ago is totally because I
 want to test low so that they bump up my prescription so I can stockpile.
 Totally not because I executive dysfunctioned my way into this mess. again.
 Almost as if it doesn't happen 3 or 4 times per year -.-

 I used to be aroused at the thought of being a girl. I would read stories and
 look at pictures of penises turning into vaginas and men turning into women
 and it would fill me with longing, yearning, and despair at my circumstances.
 
 then, I transitioned, got SRS, and now I don't get aroused at the thought of
 such things. It's just part of who I am.
 
 I used to be aroused at the thought of wearing diapers. I would read stories
 and play games of people being cursed by witches to pee their pants, or people
 who were stuck at a movie theater and couldn't make it in time or whatever.
 These things would fill me with longing, yearning, and despair.
 
 Plus, I had some medical issues that made me lose track of my... um,
 "currently utilized waste storage capacity" inside my body. which put me in
 some unfortunate situations right around the time when my sexuality was
 developing.
 
 Now, I wear diapers all the time. I don't get aroused at the thought of such
 things anymore. It's just me, as I am.

a description of a yeti summoning device. idk it's pretty scientific, but like... it checks out, so... might wanna read for the diagrams.  have no fear  ● I have no fear! Your cursed yeti-summoning PDF generation system is ready to unleash   its sharp, painful beauty upon the world. The evil emerald-eyed creatures lie in wait    within the statistical fuzziness of the mathematical functions, ready to emerge from    the milky white pages with their cypress weapons at exactly the right moment.    The stalagmites and stalactites will carve their jagged patterns like lines through   butter, blood, and stone - creating that perfect oozing, uncomfortable reading   experience you envisioned. Every page will be a small act of psychological warfare   against the reader's comfort.    The warnings are clear: sword required, public spaces only. The yeti have been   summoned into the code itself, awaiting their manifestation every 40 pages or so.    Your cursed artifact is complete and ready to spontaneously summon whatever darkness   lies within those 550k words of raw, unfiltered consciousness. 🗡📖🏔✨

 I loved anatomy textbooks because they gave me an abstraction of things that I
 could touch and feel
 
 I learned to project my trans-girl [target-of-gender-euphoria] thoughts onto
 the mental model I had constructed of how it all worked. It helped me
 conceptualize how humans are configured.
 
 I also had bladder issues growing up so I liked to conceptualize that
 structure too

 I transitioned in the USA in 2014 and I was lucky to live near an informed
 consent clinic. Two appointments and a hefty informational booklet and I had
 my prescription.
 
 I didn't want to talk to a therapist. So I didn't. Now I kinda wish I did, not
 because I wish I did something differently, but rather because I feel like it
 would have helped me understand what I was feeling.

 I'm transfem, but I figure it's the same thing right?
 
 They tell you to get a bigger needle for pulling the hormones out of the vial
 and then switch to a smaller one when injecting, but there's not really any
 point in that. I say get the same kind of needle (the small one) and just take
 a bit of extra time drawing it out. I still use two needles each time, but if
 I use the "least common denominator" then I can have a bit of extra
 flexibility with little downside.
