cis person: you're so brave
me: fuck yeah, every damn week I get electrified needles shoved into my face and next week I come back for more

patience ❎ @patience

@nex3 i remember the first laser session i did back in ’00, the laser operator, a cis woman, was shocked i wasn't wincing at all from the the pulses (which did feel like an elastic being popped on my face). i said, "this is nothing. i've felt far, far worse."

with the needle, i also struggle when it's above the lip or nearby a nerve. i try to meditate for the rest

@patience I try that too but I'm not very good at it, so I also try a lot of numbing cream

@nex3 before i stopped electrolysis a few years ago (due to not having the means for it), i would take a max strength ibuprofen about an hour or two before the appointment. this helped somewhat
