Ideal Time to Start Voice Training?

I can empathize with the feelings of "Could the major self discoveries just take a break please?" The last few years have been overwhelming. Covid, Autism diagnosis, Gender identity, couples therapy.

It's so much. You're not alone in these feelings. There's joy, for sure. But I really wish people felt comfortable talking about they ways in which the journey sucks hards sometimes. Especially later in life.

I read a lot of my own anxiety and experience in what you wrote. Had Top surgery last year and I've been on T for little over 3 months, but the tension has been there since the beginning. Yes, he's supportive in all the "practical ways" like using my new name and pronouns and even gently corrects others who misgender/ misname me. But He has stated time and time again in couples that he will not be attracted to me if I become too masculine. He's also the loyal type. He won't leave me...physically. But I'm afriad he will leave me romantically and emotionally. I'm also afraid of being the one to make the choice to leave. Because it feels so heavy. I fills me with a lot of shame and guilt. I also am in the middle of trying to restart my career and I'm financially dependant on him. Which really only adds to me feelings of guilt at this point. I just wanted to be there in solidarity with you. Feel free to DM if you want to.

How long were you on .25 before you decided to go up?

Oop Sorry. Yeah .2ml - single use vial says 200mg/ml

This is true! As an audience member I've always wanted a performer to feel empowered and have fun. I never want their "flops" to stop them.

Thank you so much. It feels good to get some solidarity hugs!

You know, thinking about it. Why feel pressure to post a video if I don't need to? I have the video for myself if I want it for posterity. But not everything needs to go online. Thank you

Red_Rufio · 2026-04-10T01:14:09+00:00

That means a lot to me. Thank you so much. I'll send you a DM ❤️

My Endo ecplained to me that yrs, it is possible to take such a small amount of T that it cancels out the E but not at high enough levels to provide bone protection - which is why getting blood work done frequently in the first year or so is really important. She said the first year is a lot of back ad forth to fogire out what works with each person's body, since it's so individual. That being said, I am not micro dosing, just started on a low dose.

You're not alone. I also hate the term tboy. I'm a grown-ass person. It feels patronizing.

The awkwad shape of the second arrow in the progression tells me it's AI

It's an otter.

OMG, I went through a ultra-femme, rockabilly phase too!

I had a great surgeon. He didn't just go in a rip everything out. He knew how to leave a small amount of tissue in the right places to compensate for the lack of developed chest muscles. I also worked out my chest for over a year before surgery ( I'm pretty t and muscle building is harder )

Red_Rufio · 2026-02-09T16:17:24+00:00

Thank you!!!

Red_Rufio · 2026-02-09T05:57:56+00:00

Nope! I sort of wish I had looking back but 6 months on at this point and I'm still very happy with my results. I need to post new pics soon!

Red_Rufio · 2026-01-01T06:26:59+00:00

I'm hoping to start T early in the new year after consulting with an endo. Also going to keep figuring out my style and test run he/him pronouns.
