transition selfies thread
December! Sixteen months now, and I'm forced to start microdosing my estradiol to make supplies last longer.
I also had a crisis which cost me a lot of energy, but eventually resolved some pretty significant old trauma, at least sufficiently that I had to rewrite my rules for what's allowed into my life. Previously I only accepted my child and my transition to take space, but now I added rules that says I also need self-acceptance (for the full spectrum of my neurodivergence) and love.

In response to this posttransition selfies thread
January! 17 months. After the December crisis, I'm feeling much more myself and even freer now than before.
This transition really has been a long, continuous, heavy work dealing with all the layers of shame I'd wrapped myself up and mummified myself in. By now I'd been transitioning for over two years in total.
Still have to shave daily though. Ugh

(Still January) And things continued to happen…
It's astounding how this person was always there inside of me. I myself knew it! But you really couldn't see it from the outside. I never got to really try actually being like this before, so I was always a bit shaky on the details—but I did know. And now that I have what's needed to show up as myself, I've finally been able to prove to myself that I was right.
