How Dysphoria Changes On Testosterone
Hello everyone! For trans people, dysphoria shifting from one body part to another, especially during medical transition, is not uncommon. It can be a bit unsettling and honestly just damn annoying so it’s important you know how to cope with it. I talk a bit about why it’s all happening as well as what I do to deal with my dysphoria moving around.
Have you had this happen to you? Have you found any great ways to cope?

ABOUT ME:
Hi, I’m Sam. I’m a queer trans man from London. I’m a fraud investigator but lately I’ve been feeling called to share my experiences here. The past few years have also been a ride for me medically, from a slipped disc to fibromyalgia, to being diagnosed with an aneurysm.
Between being trans and facing these medical issues, I’ve really been through it and it’s really put life into perspective. I hope sharing this can bring a bit of ease to someone else, in what can otherwise often feel like a lonely situation.

I Tried CBD To Cure My Chronic Pain

    I know this video is old but still i want to thank you for making it, i just got my t prescription and somehow i've been feeling really weird since i got out of the medical center. Even tho three weeks ago i was super pumped about starting t, feeling like i was finally ready after having spent years wanting it but being too scared to book an appointment, now i'm suddenly feeling doubtful and stressed all over again. It came like a truck really, even tho i was expecting to feel nothing but bliss and happiness after finally getting the prescription. It didn't help that the doctor basically told me that as a trans man, i should have zero doubts about this. Now i just suddenly feel worse questionning everything i've been sure of for years. I related so much watching your video, its great to see this is a common feeling, because there is this pressure even around other trans people of having to "prove" you're trans by not showing any doubts at all. It makes it hard to communicate and release those thougts. Basically trans impostor syndrome. Damn. Like art impostor syndrome wasn't enough. In the end, i feel like what holds me back is fear, rather than doubts. Fear of something going wrong with the treatment, it hurting basically. It's what held me back for years too, that anxiety of meeting with a doctor, explaining i am trans and want to transition.. In the end that fear just brought doubts with it, irrational ones. I'm still not feeling the best, but at least knowing i am not alone in thinking like this helps immensely, so thank you ❤

    The pharmacist told me that since my testosterone levels are low I should take a loading dose just 2 weeks after the first dose. It's been 2 weeks now since the first dose and I feel like I've just eaten a biscuit so I'm thinking of following his advice. What do you think? My testosterone level is: 0.130

      @TheSamThatIAm Thank you for the reply. I had a strange development after I had an analysis done two weeks ago, as my testosterone level jumped from 1 to 84 after I took the booster dose two weeks after the first one, but thank God I did not feel any strong side effects. No one should listen to advice from anyone other than a specialist doctor.

    From an outsiders perspective you sound very self obsessed and also stuck inside your own head. The overwhelming majority of people around you will care much more about what they are going to have for lunch than your's or anyone elses back story. We have a near unlimited number of descriptive attributes to our identity of which gender identity is but one and should be mentioned when relevent. We can process only a finite amount of information in a day and a fraction of that capacity is spent on conscious thoughts. Getting into a recursive thought loop of worry will just exhaust your mind.

    • @TheSamThatIAm

      It's not self obssessed, so much as a deep consideration around safety. I'd love not to give a crap, but unfortunately the trans people being attacked and murdered for being themselves do make me have to consider how open I am about it. It's tough having your mere existence being considered controversial or political and I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to protect oneself from that. It's not something that plagues me all the time but merely a needed consideration. It's been many years since that video and I go a lot more with the flow of things now.

My co workers telling me if you are sick then stay off work, but as you say when you have a chronic disease and a disability it’s hard to know if one day will sort one out or if it’s going to take longer to recover from. It’s all very perplexing I usually tell myself if I need to lie down after having a shower in the morning then I don’t go work but this year I’ve been able to do that fine so I need a new strategy 😊 Wish you a happy and healthy 2024 Looking forwards to watching more of your vlogs soon Ali

    I've been on Nebido for 6ish years; my dosing period was 12 weeks, then 13, then 14, then 16, and now 20 weeks - all because my levels were too high at times. At least I am cost effective. 😂 Body adapts over time, leading to an increased free testosterone levels. Luckily our endocrinologists know what to do, and when, and how. Overall, I am pretty happy with Nebido (and having less needle pokes), and I wish you all great experiences as well! 🍀

      @@TheSamThatIAm how did you do that? My passport is polish how can i change my gender and name on it?

      It's quite a process. I have a playlist on my channel on my Polish name change that goes through everything I went through. But essentially you need lawyers, an assessment in Poland, a court case and then lots of admin bits inbetween.

    I moved to London 5 months ago and I saw people where these badges, and I thought that's actually quite brave. It's brave to ask for what you need. I sometimes were in situation that I needed a seat pretty badly and was uncomfortable to ask for it (later I learned to ask). I also was in a situation where I don't actually need a seat that much and happy to give it up in case someone needs it more.

      It's definitely tough but I'm glad you've learnt to ask for it'. It does make me very grateful for the people that do pay attention and offer a seat. And ever more joy when I get to do it for someone else on a good day.

    Hi, I have been getting Sustanon for 2 years but due to supply shortages my doctor wants to put me on Nebido. I'm anxious as Nebido works very differently to Sustanon (frequency of dose, Esters, etc). Will my T levels drop significantly as my body adjusts from the switch to Nebido? I've just started seeing someone who I really like & I'm anxious that having low T levels for a period of time could cause problems... I did ask my doctor, pharmacist and Espen about this & none of them know which is unhelpful...

      Hey Ross :) I'm not a doctor so my answers should be taken with a large grain of salt. Your T levels shouldnt really drop from my understand - loads of people do this transition without any problems. You should be put on a loading phase to get your levels correct.

    Hi I’m in a similar situation but I live in Ireland. I need to change my name and gender on my birthcert not passport. Did you have to go to Poland at any point or could you do all of it trough the embassy? Cause I really don’t want to go to Poland for this

      Hey! As you know, I replied to your DM but for anybody else seeing this, yes I had several unavoidable trips to Poland unfortunately. The embassy could barely do anything.

    I'm planning on travelling to Ghana this summer, a country that unfortunately has some pretty intense anti-LGBT laws where LGBT people tend to be imprisoned or killed. I pass very well as I've been on T for a couple years, but I'm still pre-op, pre-name change, etc. I keep going back and forth about how safe I'll be going through that airport, I wanted to ask if you had any more advice specific to my situation?

      Hey! Unfortunately I don't think I could give any well informed advice her. Is it possible to at least change your name before you go? Otherwise I think it depends on what the context of the trip is/if there's anybody there you can reach out to about it etc.
