And a very low BMI to begin with :(

Are there any supplements or something I should take to put muscle mass back on? Started transitioning over summer, got depressed after the U.S. election. And haven't been working out.
Have lost 15 lbs of muscle mass, and I didn't have a lot to begin with.
I was bawling pre-cannibas yesterday. Then I ate too much butter and laid on the floor, listening to the voices in my head panicking about the Musk regime until I fell asleep.
What are you nervous about?
My mental health improved drastically and quickly. I still have problems. But allowing myself to be myself and live my life the way I like has made most of my problems more manageable. Even transphobia, because I was always scared of being viewed as too feminine when I was trying to pass myself off as cis. So, at least that problem is now nameable and visible.
Outside of that, I don't know what else to say. Physical changes will happen in their own time. And will be different for everyone. So it's hard to say what to expect. Likewise, health institutions are different and laws are different depending on where you live. In a trans friendly environment, it should only take informed consent. Which is just a health care provider going over expectations with you, potential side effects, etc. I was lucky to be in such an environment. So meds were accessible.
Probably the best decision I've ever made for my health and for my relationships. I'm way easier to get along with now and both my partner and I are much happier.
Feeling this.
Drip irrigation goes back to ancient China. The modern method was pioneered by zionists in the 60s and 70s.
Instant messaging started with IRC, in Finland.
Toshiba invented the technology that would become modern flash drives.
It looks like the Western propaganda machine is accusing China of creating a debt trap. This thread was about the south African president saying it's not a trap but a good deal. Here's some comments.

After several hundred years of Western investment which only creates slums and brothels, props up violent dictators and which leaves behind a big hole in the ground where the countries resources have been stripped, I would suggest that investment that builds railways, ports and other infrastructure, creates jobs and new markets, is like a breath of fresh air .

Because there are no slums or brothels in China, big holes in the ground, and they have never propped up violent dictators.

Remind me: How old is China? No poor people in Tibet or Yunnan? Burma is doing wonderfully too, I hear.

Dysphoria and depression have been bad. Not finding much comfort in my relationship and feeling like shit physically.
Tried to boy mode my way through quitting smoking. Visit with my kid on my birthday was the only thing I was really looking forward to the rest of the year and it was cancelled. And I may have had a cold or mild covid. Almost a week of inflammation and sore throat. So not much motivation to do anything aside from laying around miserable.
Mine was coming down off mushrooms and realizing I hated my entire wardrobe (which was on the floor in a depression pile).
I didn't go to bed, I woke my partner up. Who told me you're tripping, go to bed.
Two days later she was helping me pick out a dress :)
