Tips to stop dying while running monuments

I have about 400 hours or so but feels like my PvP is absolutely terrible. I was just trying to run solo at Trainyard with full metal kit and AK and died to a SAR in some grass I can't see. I didn't have enough time to react and died and lost my whole kit. Even when I do land shots sometimes, it feels like I'll whiff the rest of my mag and they'll kill me first. And don't even get me started on more than one person. Even if I do get the first kill, their friend is right there to finish me off before I can either wall or heal. I feel like absolute trash. Any half decent player doesn't die there.

To all the tall girls out there, are you more legs or torso?

I'm about 6'1, maybe a little over, which isn't exactly a blessing if you're trans. However, I find myself to be fortunate in that its mostly all my legs and and I have a relatively short torso for my height. I'll find that if I'm sitting down, I'll be fairly level with everyone around me despite my height.

However, for someone who is AMAB, this feels kind of strange. Most dudes I see who are my height or above have ridiculously long torsos. I'll have longer legs than someone who is multiple inches taller than me. Not like I'm complaining but certainly something I noticed.

For context, I just had jaw surgery in March and was born with a cleft lip and palate. 7 years of braces currently which was preceded by another 6 or so years of other orthodontic appliances and braces for only my top front teeth.

I've literally been working my whole life towards a smile that looks decent and nothing. Surgery just made everything worse. Maybe I'll never get what I want.

For context, I'm also missing my incisor. I recently had jaw surgery and my orthodontist said possibly another year but that feels next to impossible. Been in braces 7 years and feels like I have another 7 ahead

And for anyone who is curious, the thick wire is meant to reshape the arch of my teeth as it collapsed during surgery

I'm 7 weeks post-op from DJS and genio for cleft lip and palate related complications. Pre-op, one of my incisors was missing and the other was smaller than it should be. However, I didn't completely hate my smile before. It was something I was finally learning to be content with after years of crooked teeth.

Its now turned into one of my biggest insecurities. I look like a fucking horse. The gaps are so much more noticeable now with my upper teeth showing more now than they used to. I'm constantly thinking I'm being judged for my teeth. I have a public facing job and it feels like a nightmare. I've been in braces for over 7 years now and feels like I'm gonna need another 7 at this point.

Missing 1 of my incisors and the other is smaller than it should be. I had jaw surgery recently and my upper teeth show more now than they used to. Does it genuinely look bad and noticeable? I'm super insecure about it now

I've been growing out my hair from a short haircut since August of 2024 and this is where I'm currently at. I was initially waiting to get a haircut until it got even longer but I feel like I'm really starting to need one.

I'd like to know what styles I can look into or help with trying to maintain it at this length. Any help is appreciated ❤️

I was born with a cleft lip and palate and as a result, I'm missing one of mt incisors and the other looks like this. I'm getting an implant soon for the other but I'm wondering what could be done so it looks like less of a gap in my smile

I'm 22. At this point, a majority of my life has felt like some sort of inside joke that I'm not aware of. It genuinely feels comedic with some of the things that I do and experience. Maybe I don't get to have the same things others do.

I just want to act and be treated like a normal person but that feels so impossible at this point. I'm really scared I'll never find someone to love. Maybe its better that way though.

I got double jaw surgery over 6 weeks ago and absolutely hate my teeth now. I was born with a cleft lip and palate and have spent the past 13-14 years being orthodontic candidate #1. While the outside of my face looks better, it feels like my teeth have been ruined. They looked straighter and less crooked before surgery. Now when I smile or talk, my two front teeth on top are most visible and makes my missing incisor even more noticeable, accompanied by the other incisor which isn't fully developed. 7 years in braces and my teeth still look trash. I've spent the maximum effort for none of the reward. Most of everyone's teeth look better than mine without the years of extensive work. I feel doomed.

I'm 6 and a half weeks post op from DJS and genio and it feels like my teeth look horrible. My bite is super weird. I've been in braces 7 years only for my teeth to not look like such. I'm really worried my surgeon made some kind of mistake.
