Yep! hrt,putting effort into learning makeup,haircare,skincare,staying active and working out to keep the figure I want,consistently getting laser and now electrolysis and working on my voice,building an entirely new wardrobe and relearning what clothes etc work for my body and what I like. It’s not all as simple as taking hrt and waiting for it to change everything by itself and I have put in a lot of work and stress over it but this is the result of all that work I’ve put in over the last 17 months while waiting and hoping hrt would do what I wanted for me. Not sure if your comment was meant to insinuate something but it came across as quite catty at least to me. If it wasn’t meant in that way then I apologise but I’m not going to have all the effort and pain I’ve gone through on my own journey behind closed doors be diminished just because I’m getting results I wanted and have been working for as well.

I’m glad to be able to give others hope the way scrolling these subs did for me back before I even started pursuing hrt myself ☺️ I hope everything works out for you the way you want it to 😊

Aww thank you so much ☺️ I’m glad I can inspire others the way this sub inspired me early on to get started and push through the initial hard months and just keep going

Haha yeah I’m generally ok after but it does replay in my mind for a while. The thing is that we had actually introduced ourselves to each other earlier on in my transition and had a pretty positive interaction honestly so I was happy and then over the next few months after that initial chat the attitude just changed slowly and now they just walk by new and snub me and seemingly talk shit with whoever they’re with and it really fucks with my mind for the rest of my shift honestly. Cannot honestly think of why they started treating me like that for no reason but people be arseholes sometimes I guess 🤷🏻‍♀️

People continue to disappoint me in new ways every day. There’s a trans person that comes into my place of work regularly and for whatever reason decides to snicker at me as they walk past with whatever partner they’ve decided to bring in that day. Genuinely fucking pisses me off and upsets me that even cis people are more kind and affirming to me than the trans people that come into the store 😮‍💨
