This one was a whirlwind of things. I might have a heart condition. I would have set a new personal best in a race I ran, except that the possible heart condition and/or the side effects of spironolactone made me take walk breaks because I red-zoned a dozen times. I mustered up the courage to wear a full face of makeup and some femme-leaning clothing out to a doctor appointment and therapy for the first time. I even made an unexpected detour to buy a snack. That was an unnerving thing to do on a whim. I guess I’m not as timid as I thought. I also spent the whole weekend with the only two people who I am out with, but at the request of one of them we had “just a normal time doing normal things”. Which means I spent the whole weekend in boymode and not speaking up much. And then I find out that one of them couldn’t stop herself from outing me. Thankfully everyone involved is immediate family, but that kind of breach of trust hurts. On a good note, that outing went extremely well and I now have a third person in my support network who is a strong ally. So a bit of an emotional rollercoaster, altogether.
