I’d love to join too ! I don’t know any communities on Matrix, but if there’s none we can start one

I see it a bit differently. I think your role in life is whatever you define it to be. Whatever makes you happy.

Would you say any infertile woman is not a woman? Did they fail life because of it? Would you say people that don’t want children are neither men nor women? Is there a difference between being female and male? Sure! But not being able to bear a child doesn’t disqualify you as a woman. Gender is just a construct society made up.

It’s good to question your identity, so you can be who you truly are.

Edit: No reply.. I was hoping for a good discussion, but I guess that’s out of the question as you did reply with insensitive and superficial comments to others 🤷‍♀️ You can do better

I really enjoyed Coral Island. Buuut I haven’t finished it so minor disclaimer ☺️ It’s like a mix of the Sims and a simple farming sim.

Woow! You look a-mazing, it’s really cute!

Oh yes I read something similar on the 60-80% thingy. I started measuring my biceps circumference to make seeing results a bit more tangible.

Let me know what worked for you, I’m interested too !

Hi! Not really and answer, but I’m in a similar situation muscle wise. I decided to visit a dietician to reduce muscles altogether in a healthy fashion and she recommended taking no more than 20 grams of protein every 2 hours or so. If you take more it will go to muscle build-up.

Still, it’s also important to get enough protein throughout the day, because you need it for just about anything (hair ✨ for one).

Spreading your intake throughout the day helps with not building more muscle mass (and potentially reduce it). She also told me E helps a lot, but I can’t speak from experience Hope it helps!

Thank youuu! Yes she’s truly amazing 😊 I’m baking her an apple pie this weekend as a little thank you for the happy moment and the dress ☺️

Hii girls! Omg I just had an amazing experience with my mom and I needed to share. My mom and I have been chatting about online shopping and my mom had just bought some dress and a maxi skirt. She showed me both and I said they both look cute and how she had such a good taste.

Then she explained the dress didn’t really fit her well and then I noticed she hesitated to ask me something. And I was like mommm what’s up and she asks me if I wanted to try the dress. I said yes!! Omg and girls the dress looked so unexpectedly great on me I almost cried. I needed a hug and told my mom this made me so happy. She was like: ooohh but then it’s so clear to me now. It’s so clear. 🥰 She told my I could have the dress 😊 Then she pulled out other dresses for me to try.

I told her it was so great to have our first “mother daughter”-moment and we both had tears in our eyes of happiness. That’s allll! Sending you all my love ❤️

Depends on where you are! I had a chat with my GP and they referred me to one. It’s included in my health insurance so it was kinda a no-brainer for me

Hi probably Amber, congrats! Great name btw :) It’s great that you wrote all this down! Writing can really help processing all the things on your mind! At least it does for me. When I was exploring I started to write everything I wanted to in a diary and it can be such a relieve sometimes just to put all your thoughts on paper or your phone.

My advice as a freshly cracked egg: Take it a step at a time. Maybe create a little timeline: 1. Get a therapist 2. Research what to do about balding 3. make a plan to lose weight etc

Do one little scary thing at a time and repeat until it’s no longer scary.

The only way is forward; you can make new girly memories. I started to, consciously and unconsciously, mimic women around me. Just like a little girl would I suppose to learn how to be a woman.

Sorry if I have too much unwanted advice!

Know that you’re not alone & be kind to yourself ❤️
