  • I mean, visually, my face and body are unrecognizable from before. But that could be due to me starting HRT early on in my life (started at 19 years old, been 6 years since.) It’s still jarring to look at myself in the mirror and see a girl staring back. I get so giddy but then of course, I see something off and obsess over it. Currently, that’s my facial hair. It sucks having to shave everyday.

    My hair has gotten SO LONG (Down to my stomach). So much so that other cis girls ask me tips on how I keep my hair healthy looking. >w< The first couple years I was afraid of wearing makeup out in public but lately have been having a lot of fun with it! It’s just fun to look and feel pretty. >°<"

    Mentally am still kicking, and I still have some troubles with the past here and there, but I wouldn’t dream of giving this up for anything. I hope to have started some actual procedures like hair removal or bottom surgery within the next year, once I have figured out insurance. x.x But as of now, I’m just tolerating it down there (even tho it makes my life challenging…)

    Anyways, that’s the gist of it. Also, hai! Used to lurk so am kinda new here. I might post some pics at some point once I’ve built up the courage ~" Thanks, y’all! ❤️






  • Kinda same. I’ve been on HRT for a while. Like… 5 years a while >^<

    I’ve wanted bottom surgery for years now, but get very anxious when I start picking up the phone to do it. It can also just be hard in the mental sense to push yourself to get something you need, like going to the dentist or whatever. You know you need it, but one reason or another makes it more difficult than it really should be.

    I’m happy that I don’t mind it too much still being there, but I did think a lot a few days ago how everything would be just be better if it was gone. Hell, if I even got an orchiectomy it would be an improvement. But y’know… Bills, insurance doesn’t cover it, having to spend everyday of my life having to help my family out. Just never ever had enough time nor money to really try and work on myself more than just the hormones (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠)

    Anyways, I wish chu luck on chur journey! ° Thanks for taking your time to read. 🫂❤️










  • Such a mood. We all feel it from time to time. It’s important to remember that your thoughts don’t define who you are. I can’t count how many times I got hung up on an intrusive thought that spiralled into just straight up attacking and being transphobic to myself. Respecting yourself is tough, but it’s possible. Still learning this myself, tbh. Heh. But knowing who you are can take time. Understanding ourselves doesn’t happen overnight. ^^

    Just remember that it’s important to feel comfortable with ones self. We’re all gonna experiment here and there with things until we feel most comfortable. We’re here for each other, and if you feel like you aren’t fem enough than keep on femmin’ until it’s no longer an argument! Can’t argue with straight up facts, gurl. -w- hehe~

    I hope you get everything you want and more. 🫂❤️
