Went to convert my inbox and noticed my side of the messages are gone so its only the other person's messages and lot of previous messages are gone

Also it shows them in the order I converted them not in the "newest to oldest" 😐 i like the organization part but this just sucks

Want

• Exserice friendly, want to go walks and (outdoor) gyms. Stretching and everyday life.
• The results tape can do but without the cons of the tape
• Keep the tissue still and flat/pec like

–

Fine with it, i can deal with it

• 8h limit

–

Notes

• I do like to be without binding to let my body rest over night atleast(also to be more comfortable while i sleep) which tape doesn't really do unless re-applied the next day and by that, i need to buy more faster.
• Eu shops only to avoid extra fees
• Tissue size: Small, easy to flatten. Laying on my back flattens my chest very well as an example

–

Current binder

• Few years old
• Originally s, its so broken the inner fabric layer split it two. Band is well srtached too. I believe s size is too small for my current frame(i eat better and healthier)
• I feel like it makes breathing SLIGHTLY more difficult but it probably doesn't(specifically a problem when getting too active, aka walking too fast apparently lmao). Its manageable tho, probably got bit small for my frame or its doing that bc its broken. I seriously need a new one

Binder

• Pro= one time purchase, nicer feeling than tape. Overall not a terrible experience with binders
• Cons= limits it makes, needs to be taken off regularly(only problem when im not home), summer heat(can tolerate), if wearing a sleeveless shirt it looks like a bra :( (limites clothes which it can be used with it). Just like with tape, not the best for full day use when i cant take it off byt its tolerated.
• Other= results arent as nice as tape gives me but thats ok

–

Long binder

• Tried only once, bad experience(was too small, difficult to put on and take off(didnt want to damage a product i was only testing))
• Would still need to wear a shirt over it(aka more hot during summer)

Tape

• Pros= exact results i want, doesn't effect breathing when applied properly. Can keep on all day. Almost perfect. I want this but with a as time purchase
• Cons= im way too sweaty for it to stay on when im working out, slightly itchy after hours of usage just enough to bother me, my skin doesn't like hours of use of it per day. Money, needs to purchased and applied again. Doesn’t always feel like it sticks to my skin but other times it has no issue?
• Other= I don't use it super often for the cons listed, binder is my first to go for everyday life

–

Top surgery

• Way too expensive :(

–

Testosterone

• Gengergb and imago are expensive af
• Local trans care is poot. Not super easy to get to get there, and if you did get in it would be difficult uphill battle for few years

–

Health

• Autism and adhd spectrums
• Fibromyalgia

–

Random thought= Sport binder with a zipper, so i can just open it if im not doing anything(in situations where i cant take it off and put on, i can just go to the bathroom to close/open the zipper)

• My current binder is loose enough just to lowered it to my stomach and quickly to put it back up to my chest on in the bathroom so I used that as way to have break
• Note that this doesn't happen often! Only when im visiting somebody at my current situation

–

Yes, i been looking this to myself too(tape, binder with zipper vs no zipper, long binders, compression tops etc), but im here for more opinions and further info :)

(I have been recommend a compression top in the past btw, still looking into it tho)

–

Edit for more info(copy pasted my comments bc i thought its important to mention)

My chest is pretty flat already so lot off compression isnt needed anyway

Also i know all that about the tape already :) but it wont stay on bc how sweaty i get when working out during warm/hot days. It also gets uncomfortable after full day of use(sensory issues). I have tested different types of skin safe tape with varying results and my answer to tape is combination of those

Sorry if i wasn't clear enough in my post about my chest size/tape experience

Its an odd feeling to see few post wondering this after emptying my tree friends (only left goal buddies). I needed better app performane and there were too many slides of tree friends so I removed near everyone expect those with shared goals

You didn't do anything wrong, I just had way too many pages and picking who to keep felt unfair, so I only kept those with shared goals bc it felt like the best option

Once the lags calm down im more than happy to get friend request from you again, but right now no thanks

Another reason i removed so many people was because the good vibes become less and less, to the point that it felt like I was the only one keeping it up. Sometimes even waking up to no good vibes at all unless u went trough everybody and send good vibes. And no, sending good vibes isnt required, theres no need to feel pressured to do so

But the lags were the main reason for my decision, like i said, good vibes aren't required and there shouldn't be pressure to do it either :) not getting good vibes at all or getting those only now and then is perfectly fine. I just had way too many pages of people on my tree and had to trim it down, like i said, the way I did it felt like the fair option
