These past couple of weeks I've felt such peace over my transition. I'm still not 100% in the place I want to be yet, but I know that those changes will come eventually.

It's done so much for my mental health to be in an environment that affirms me and to automatically be gendered correctly by most people. Being on testosterone has also done a lot for me because now I can actually bear to look at pictures of myself and think "oh yeah, that's me" and not some weird being that kinda resembles me but isn't.

I remember when I was younger and thought I was trans but was so afraid and second-guessing myself all of the time. I tried to convince myself that I'd regret it.

I don't know what the future will hold. But I'm so, so glad I transitioned. I finally feel whole.

I felt the same way. Even when there are aspects of myself Iโ€™m not fully comfortable, it feels better to take it in as a Guy than as the person I was before.

๐Ÿป Hopefully many more years you you and I and the rest of us. Cheers!

Being able to see the real you really is the best, isn't it?
