I was diagnosed as “woman” for many, many years. I was always cold, tired, easily fatigued, depressed, and got nothing but SSRIs / antipsychotics / anxiety meds / etc. prescribed, because no doctor believed anything was wrong and I was told it’s normal to need a cane to walk since I was 23.

Then one day I had a seizure and developed widespread nerve damage in 3 months, and suddenly I was taken very seriously, got a diagnosis for a degenerative nerve condition, and put on treatment for it. Unfortunately, we found out that I can’t absorb the necessary medication orally at all, so I have to do injections of it for the rest of my life… so of course, my doctors keep taking away my prescription for the injections and putting me back on the pills that we know don’t work. I’m so tired.

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.
