I feel like I started too late. There’s no hope for me of ever passing… I’m so freaking dysphoric

      Girl my egg hadn’t even cracked at 20. Give yourself some time!

      Also you look more fem than you think you do!

      The best thing I ever did for my mental health was making some irl friends. Humans are social animals, you’ll feel so much better if you have a good community around you

      I agree with everything Chloe said. HRT is working super well for you. I know it’s hard but we can see it’s working on the picture and it’ll keep working.

      And you’re young, I started at 31 and I pass, even on the days were I just crawl out of the house no makeup or anything.

      When I came out, I was worried of being too old, and then I saw other trans people that started in their 50s or 60s and were passing peeling perfectly. I remember looking at this woman’s selfie and thinking: “that’s just an older woman”. No clocking, or anything. It’s never too late.

      my egg didn’t even begin to hatch until i was 31.

      it warms my heart to a fierce degree to see others realize what i was too stupid to when i was 14.
