    I waited like 10 years from the time I first started suspecting myself being trans, all because I felt like it couldn’t really be that way for me, and I was probably just faking, and every other excuse under the sun, plus also not knowing how to get care anyway. I sure wish I had started transitioning way back then…

      Lately it’s been a kaleidoscope of mourning for a past that could have been… So much questioning, denial, and self doubt. 😔

    I wish I hadn’t hesitated so long, but if I could go back I wouldn’t warn myself. Letting that crack grow from a minor problem to a very major one has been very affirming. Like every day I don’t have tits I get more sure I want them. When I started I was working off a hunch and just… creating an environment for myself where I could address the idea without external or internal censorship. Now… This is a lot of very useful data. But I think its time to get going

      About 6 months in and it’s hard to say there has been any real progress. Lots of thinking about it for sure 🤔

      If you have doubts about going on HRT, you can do a “trial run” so to speak. At least for E. That’s what I did and while I still have some doubts, I do know it’s something I want to pursue further. I just need to work through a few more issues.
      I will say that E definitely did things for me that made me big happy. And there’s a good chance it will do the same for you. Or at least give you a better idea of what to expect/what you want for yourself.

      Ugh I feel this one. So many products available to express femininity 😍 just buy buy buy this commodified version of the self 😔

      Need to somehow find a balance between hyper consumerism and “It’s OK to buy yourself nice things sometimes.”

      That’s quite thought provoking, Maria.

      Am I miseating and drinking because I need to destroy my reflection in the mirror as it doesn’t belong to me anyway?
