Expanding on the title: I got my first prescription for hormones today (a SERM and an antiandrogen!) and while there is great hope and joy, I also find the prospect daunting. I am wondering what types of photos, physical objects, etc. other people have appreciated having for themselves. Maybe they mark how far you've come, where you hope to be, or what it means to be you through it all
Thank you in advance and I love you
I kept the first bottle of Spiro I ever got and used it to hold my nighttime meds for when I was working or out and about, I eventually replaced it with the first bottle of estrogen that had my new name on it. I wrapped them both in packing tape so that the label could be preserved. I still have the first girl clothes I ever bought for myself (Madoka magica tshirt from 2014, way before I even knew I was a girl). I have a day zero picture of myself that looks like the picture of Dorian Grey to me now, I like to show it to girls who feel frustrated with their results after a short time on HRT and go "so this was me not even four years ago, I hope this is encouraging."
I'm happy with the number of momentos I kept, it's nice to remember but there's a lot I'd rather forget.
I should do that. I planned to keep the first bottles.
