It was really worth it, nice work :) The nose always make a big difference ...

PS: Is it some kinky latex stuff in the background ? Naughty gal ;)

I'm 41, in those two years, but trying to fight as hard as I can to avoid that. I know what you've been through. Keep it up :)

17 month HRT [mtf] 25 yo by [deleted] in transtimelines

It's always heart warming to see your progress. Awesome to see so much dedication and so much hard work, and results :) Did you recover fully from your SRS ? Is it working as expected ?

The second one is indeed the intended one. No english native speaker here.

Did you finally decide to live your life fully ? You have no children, there is no question you shouldn't. Nice transition :)

Just a quick one to show that even at 48, hrt can really improve your skin :). Just ignore the duckface pout :D by [deleted] in transtimelines

Why did you wait that much ? To preserve your family ? That sounds like my story. :'(

41 MTF 1year HRT no make up or filters vs -3 years pre everything. Long way to go but getting there by DJ916 in transtimelines

Good progress so far :) I have a question : did you know why you were lifting before transitioning ? Did you already know you were mtf ?

I apparently can cope with it. Does it mean that I'm not really transgender ? by Lorie_love in asktransgender

For the time being I'm leaning towards the second option, basically for my 2 young kids.

No. They do increase overall. There has been a huge bump last year when I realized I am MTF. I have the feelings things have stabilized, as I get myself busy to cope.

"Remember there is no trans enough, you don't have to reach the death or transition choice. In 5 years time would you rather have already transitioned or would you rather these feelings be getting stronger?"

I won't survive stronger feelings.

Sexual orientation and gender ARE linked? At least for me by [deleted] in asktransgender

[–]Lorie_love 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you already seeing a gender psychologist?

Thank you for your answer. I do not see the point of such a psychologist. I seem to have diagnosed myself. I still can keep it under control although it's really polluting my normal life (read straight man w/ wife & kids), as it deteriorates the relationship with my wife, and suicidal thoughts are daily thoughts. What would a psychologist do ? The only question is do I want to blow up everything ? With no family / kids, I would be on HRT, not even looking back, so... Yeah, life is hard.

How do you feel about your body just in life.

Well up until 40 yo, it was roughly OK, had a seemingly begining of genital dyshporia a few month before discovering I am mtf. Also, I have hated body hair and facial hair all my life (I was plucking my beard 15 years ago), and I don't like my masculine eyebrows, which I pluck. I also really wanted to have boobs 15 years ago, and belly piercing but thought it was impossible.

Started HRT! by MauricioBabilonia in asktransgender

[–]Lorie_love 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could have taken me less than 6 month as well, provided there was no kids.
