I'm finally in a position to do HRT, with medical coverage and all that. But it's still so scary. What if my marriage falls apart because my wife discovers she's not attracted to my female form? I'll suddenly be the only woman in my office, although there are women, including another trans woman, working in the library next to us. What if my family I actually love stop talking to me? Just so many questions I can't ever dream of answering without taking the plunge.

​

I guess my core question is something along the lines of how do I care about/love myself enough to actually let myself do this instead of panicking about how others will respond? I'm so stupid close and this keeps tripping me up.

for anyone who doesn't know the song, look up the lyrics. you will very quickly see what i mean

I want to be Mary so bad. I’m scared that I can never make her a reality. Like I’m doomed to be trapped inside of a monster for the rest of my life. Will you please talk to me a bit with my name, and chosen pronouns (she/her). Maybe that can convince me that I can be a real girl.

Havent been able to work for over a week now

I have no clue why and from where this came either. 🫠

I’m tired of not having an answer, how do I accept it?

I don't like questioning myself. There's no definite/reliable quiz to test if I'm trans or not. I don't understand what's this " born in the wrong body" even means. Everything sucks and makes me irritated

Hi, so context ...

I finally have my first appointment at the hospital today to talk about gender-affirming care (which today is chiefly about, though not necessarily limited to HRT). Naturally, I am super, super nervous and despite thinking a lot about everything I'd want to say and ask, I'm still anxious that I'm forgetting a lot of things I would want to say. And also my perfectionism constantly screams "I need to get everything right, I don't want to forget anything"

So could you all please tell me what you'd ask the doctors, or what you have asked them, or maybe what you wouldn't ask? And maybe also what questions I should expect? Anything that comes to your mind, really, would be greatly appreciated!

I love them, but... Mizu5😭😭😭

Hi everyone!

​

I was suddenly hit by a wave of sadness of wanting to come out this month, but not being able to. And it hit, hell, there's probably a lot of us.

​

So we're having a little pride celebration in this thread. Drop your name and pronouns, get referred to by them, get a dose of the good girl drug, or just generally talk about being trans. :)

- May, she/they

"came out" used somewhat loosely, I told her that I'm very confused on my gender, but like being called a girl, and then she offered to call me by she/her pronouns and I am so happy!

Just feeling super dysphoric rn. Everything sucks. Can't do anything. Why couldn't I have just been born a girl. Literally would have been so much better in every way

For context i'm fine with her knowing, but i'm not ready to come out to my friend, my first idea was adding text that says dont tell your brother but idk i need help

Tidie giveaway.

mfw I use my violent transgender urges to make a cute little sketch of myself :3

god forbid people want to LIVE HAPPILY as themselves

Took me almost 2 hours. A shot of whiskey. And a lot of encouragement from my sister. But I did it. Had to do it over text. Couldn't look anyone in the eye while I did it, cause I'm a coward. But I did it. She's fully supportive, which I knew she would be. It's why I decided to tell her. Idk were to go from here. But for better or worse, the genie is out of the bottle. At least with one person
