Getting T shot a week late

[Dominick_81]

How can you look exactly the same? I mean I know that EVERYONE reacts differently to T and that everyone's body is different but you can't look EXACTLY the same. And maybe you should talk to a therapist. So you can do something about your anxiety. Maybe they can help you see how you have changed. I'm sure there are changes. You just have to be willing to look at them even if they are subtle.

Everyone tells me I look exactly the same as I did pre-T just more stockier b/c of the T. They say my face has angled up, but my look is still neutral, people say it can go either way, male or female. I get mis-gendered left and right without a hat. My counselor has seen some changes but it's nothing drastic, I still basically look the same just stockier.

Ah dude I'm sorry your anxiety is that bad

That's okay.

Dominick do you have a friend or something that can do it? I've been on T for about 8 months and I administered every shot myself except for the first one... there have been times though, that I get a little anxiety and can't stab myself. When this happens, I see if a friend can do it. I had my dad's girlfriend do it a few times (she's a nurse) and a friend of mine do it twice.

Also, your voice has deepened I'm sure? Also, I don't even see how you're not passing. I have seen your pics, and to me you pass... and it's difficult for people to pass to me. If I saw you, I would think you were a guy... unless there's something about your mannerisms? Do you think you could post  a video or pm me one or something? (If you haven't already..)

And as others have said, a week will not cause anything to revert. You may be moody, tired, sluggish, and not feel well... but I get like that at the end of my cycle sometimes.

And back to the T not working for you, as you say.. how long are you going to give it? Your voice will remain the same as it is now if you go off of T. If it really isn't doing anything, and you don't want more facial hair, then you may wanna consider going off of it? If you work out you may have a more difficult time formulating muscle mass after going off, but other than that.. if you say T isnt working for you.. then you probably wouldn't lose much else...

Nope, no friend to do it for me. I only trust the nurse to do it or someone who's done it a lot and knows how to give a T shot.

I'm glad you have someone that can give you your T shots when your unable to.

My voice has deepened, but it's hasn't deepened that much. My voice over a year on T should be a whole lot deeper than what it is now. I'm very unhappy with my voice. I get miss and ma'm all the time on the phone and I hate that.

Pics are easier to pass in b/c you can pose just right have your hair fall just right, ya know what I mean? I think b/c of my neutral look and my height I get female.

Everyone has told me I don't have any feminine mannerisms to me.

I stay on T just to keep my period from coming back. That, right now is keeping me from going off T.

I don't mind facial hair. I want it. I wanna grow a circle beard or a go-t, but I don't have much facial hair and it only grows on one side of my face, so growing it out looks stupid.

Here's a comparison photo. I'll try to do a video, but the thing is I don't like the way I look on camera. I wanna wait until I loose some weight and I'm more comfortable with the way I look before I post a video.

Looking at the comparison.... I still do not see you as female at all O_O

[Dominick_81]

Thanks. I probably look a little different in person, maybe more feminine features stick out or it could be my height that's killing it for me.

And I pretty much look the same as I did pre-T, right? Not much change at all.

I can see a difference in the two pictures, but it'd be easier for me to tell if they were both from the same angle. Straight on is always the best indicator. If your second pic was the same angle as the first I could definitely see it better..

But, I can tell you it looks like a good four years has passed between those two pics. You looked like a young guy - maybe in his early teens - in the first one. The second one you look like you're around 18-20

I don't know if I have another pic from the same angle, I'll have to look and see if I have one somewhere.

The pre-T pic was taken shortly before going on T, maybe a couple months or so. I think it's the haircut that makes me look older and different, not the T.  But as you can see I basically look the same as I did pre-T.  Hopefully T will masculize more within the next couple of years so I can start to pass 100%.
