my name is beaux! i’m 18 and i’ve been in the shifting community since about 2020-2021. im nonbinary and pansexual and use she/they pronouns (although i prefer they/them). over the years i’ve tried shifting to a lot of different drs. i have *not* shifted fully to any of my past or present drs. i really like scripting new realities and talking about my experiences and my plans for my drs and scripts! i want to make new shifting friends because i haven’t really had any for the past few years. i have adhd, dyslexia, and dyscalculia. i also likely have undiagnosed autism and POTS or some form of exercise induced asthma. i like to think of myself as a very open minded shifter, i respect other’s opinions even if i don’t agree because at the end of the day, what other’s do in their dr or their life in general is NOT my business.

thinking abt making a shifting tiktok acct so i can YAP YAP abt my dr and journey. if i did it would be private to avoid yk.. people finding it + anti shifters etc.

so ready to wake up at hogwarts

tried an “awake method” (not really a method, just threw on subliminal and meditated with intention) and woke up two hours later in my cr. i dont remember ANYTHING from that two hours. it was relaxing though. i think awake methods are great for people who struggle falling or staying asleep i think im going to try this more.

just realized i havent tried an awake method since like 2022…

chat the other day i had a dream abt steven meeks from my DPS dr even though i haven’t been fixated on that dr for a few months. just thought that was crazy. go back to shifting now besties!!

“this is the worst essay i’ve ever written” *presses submit*

- me five minutes ago to an essay due tonight at midnight that i started like three hours ago (it’s like 1pm).

{i really don’t care that much about this essay i’ll be fine}

these days i think im starting to prefer ambience over subliminals for when i shift and being able to identify that makes me so proud of myself <3

so i dont normally nap but honestly naps + shifting attempt is so like…. different in the best way possible, for me at least. i only nap if im either really sick or really tired and today i was just exhausted and needed to lay down. so then im like, “yk what… im in my dr. im in cedric diggory’s dorm room, he saw that i was tired and let me nap in his bed while he was doing homework or something” so i put on a cedric diggory ambience heartbeat in my headphones and just closed my eyes. i didnt end up actually falling asleep. but i was laying down like that for at least an hour. and after i woke up i was so well rested. like i dont nap but that hit different.. i also didnt put pressure on myself when i was like “oh im shifting” i was kinda like “yk what im just really tired and im just gonna see what happens”

im academically exhausted but classes for the week are OVER

going to your last class before the weekend is the best thing in the world…

if i made a google form to script y’all into my hogwarts uni dr would y’all do it?? cuz after seeing other people do it, it looks so fun!

i just changed my family in my script again to be a little bit more like my cr but not exactly and im adding my older brother who is 9 years older than me. Then I remembered that Tonks is about 7 years older than Harry.. So now I think it would be *very unexpected* and therefore very funny if my older brother got with Tonks. I’m not scripting it. I don’t know if I WANT it to happen. but it would just be… interesting…

if you’re like me and you feel something holding you back from shifting might be the fact that you’re gonna forget stuff you have to do here when you get back, MAKE YOURSELF A NOTE IN YOUR NOTES APP!! mines titles “welcome back: here’s where you left off” and i just make a little list of assignments that i’m not done with, due dates, reminder to text my friends, stuff i might forget about after a few days (or however long i stay in my dr). this has made me less worried about shifting during the week when i have class and assignments due and stuff. one of the things i wrote in mine is like “YOUR {college} ID IS LIKE YOUR WAND, DON’T LEAVE YOUR DORM WITHOUT IT” (bc my ID is my room key and i’m locked out without it). and “you’re on your period :(”. but making this little list kinda motivates me to shift to cuz like.. idk i feel less pressured to only be able to shift on weekends like i was before. hope this helps someone else to :).
