1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    Sam is a very special character to me. I've had dolls that inspired me every couple of years but Sam is the one who is helping me through the rude awakening into true adulthood and figuring out who I am and what I inspire to be. Although Sam's journey is mainly due to gender dysphoria, diagnosis of intersex and going against what he was told to be (female), the grapple with anxiety and depression is very real to both me and my OC. Realizing you are not the person you have always been told you should be or is can be detrimental to your mental health as you age and both Sam and I are figuring out our identity as the years go by. I hope, by the end of both of our journey, Sam will help me realize something new about myself. For the time being, they will be in my collection.

    Ever since Sam (Samantha) could remember, they were raised as a women. Sure, Sam didn't have the same experiences as women, but they never felt any different that your girl next door until puberty. Body changes were slow and subtle, but not to the extreme they saw their peers have. As Sam's friends bounced from relationship to relationship, flaunting their "new" bodies and finding themselves in society's gender roles, Sam felt a sudden sense of loneliness and isolation.

    They felt they didn't fit in anywhere, and at the age of 16, Sam was diagnosed with depression and anxiety. Self harm was something Sam seemed to think would ease their pain and suicide was always on their mind.

    Highschool was a difficult time for Sam. Bullying was now the new norm for them to experience. The girl's picked on them and the boys acted like they were a disease. Yet, behind closed doors, boys talked about how they would do the most sexually heinous things to Sam and the girls..well..the jealousy radiated off of them. It's like they knew something was different about Sam and everyone couldn't help but want to ruin it and make them less than special. The moment graduation came and went, Sam applied to the college far away as possible from family and "friends". Somewhere were they could be a no one.

    College was less than ideal. Academics became a strong suit for Sam. Over achieving was something they strived for. There were countless nights of tears and misery where if they got a B or below, they felt like the world would fall apart. They wanted to be in control of at least something. Social life on the other hand was better than before. Friends were easily made and the boys would turn their heads when Sam walked by. But with this new found freedom and attention came the depression and the explosive episodes of fear. New OCD's formed and self regulation of skin picking and hair pulling were something Sam found themselves doing over and over again. Even with the popularity they had, their happiness plummeted. College was finished within 3 years, and it was one of the most detrimental parts of Sam's life.

    After college at the age of 21, Sam found themselves in the party and nightlife scene. Drinking, drugs, and terrible people were surrounding Sam's life and for the next 4 years, Sam would find themselves in countless abusive relationships, being taken advantage by both men and women. These people who called Sam their lovers, their friends, were all out to use them. It wouldn't be till 25 were Sam decided to make a huge change to their life.

    Now, at 26, Sam has found that a quiet life is what they always wanted. They spend most of their time with Moody, their Main Coon, and their lovely partner. During this transformative year, Sam began wondering about their body and health. They didn't feel like they were entirely a women, yet, they had the bodily functions of a women, although not consistent. With the reassurance of their partner, Sam went to their doctor, only to be diagnosed as someone who is intersex. Devastated by the news, they felt their partner would reject them, but this was no longer the case. Although unhealthy relationships were something Sam had been used to, their current partner told them this diagnosis would never change the way they saw Sam and loved them. Now, diagnosed as intersex, Sam is dabbling with the idea of being non-binary. Neither man nor woman feels right to them, and they are on the road of accepting themselves, and finding new friends to accept them as well. And that's where our story stops for now :whee:
