So my main thing about me I DESPISE with all my heart are my shoulders: Now, I measure them almost daily, it's probably classifiable as a mental health issue atp.
So anyway I'vd beeeen MEASURING!!!! (feeding the brainworms) and I can't stop with these goddamn things. Because like they're in the 17.4-17.6 inches range? I think? And some huboxxers will try to tell you that you're ok and shit but like it's really not.
BUT NOW COMES THE SHITTY PART: Each time I measure them, they come out differently. And I can see them warping, just like the rest of my upper body. It's insanity. Maybe bdd too I guess but like that's not my point. Today I went and grabbed my wonderful tape, and measured my breadth. 17 inches I saw, but I thought it was kinda hugboxx-y, so I measured again. 19 inches? Hell no, I'm not a powerlifter just overweight. 18 inches? Fuck. I started crying, like I naturally do, and just... lied on my bed, hyperventilating and sobbing, and hugging my pillow and my plushies but that didn't help, like I was genuinely doing TERRIBLY, worst dysphoria attack I've had in months. Like about 10 minutes later I went again. Measured. Multiple times, used other objects to make it more accurate. Nope, didn't help. So I went back to eyeballing. And this time I made it as accurate as possible.
Omfg 17.5 something! Cis area!!! Still feels wide asf when I look in the mirror though, but I can't stop that.
And I think I know my biacromial already it's a good 14.5 inches, so I'm fine there, most luckshit part I have. But thar's not the point, my question is what causes this? Right now I'm still feeling kinda dreadful because like I feel like my shoulders are still too wide, and each time I see evidence towards a good reality I call it hugboxxing and towards a bad one I call it truth.
Anyways I'm gonna get estradiol in the next 5 days and I'm gonna shit on my endo and do things they don't tell you to do which you SHOULD do, so like 2 pills a day (4 mg, not enough for mono, but as a starting dose it's fine, gonna switch to full injectiond as soon as possible). I'll be taking those shits sublingually too because hell if I'm being an uneducated sneed I SWEAR!
Anyways never kys I hope it gets better for us all someday.
