Personally about to hit it quicker than I thought I would. Kind of freaking out about it but also really excited to see more changes :)
It's an awkward stage of transition but the best advice I can give is to try to look past that awkwardness and instead use it as motivation. You are warm, malleable plastic. Use this time to try make yourself fit your best vision of yourself.
Learn makeup, try different hairstyles, try different types of clothes, wear your jeans higher, try experimenting and see what resonates. Keep the things that make you feel better and shed the ones that don't. It's also ok to reserve certain things for special occasions. But always remember to be patient with yourself.

This. Im currently right there and this is what keeps going. All the stuff is happening painfully slow for my liking, but this way I can actually see some results right away
Zea couldnât have said it better haha
For me it helps a lot to talk about it. About all of it really! About what bothers me, what gives me joy and anything in between.
I recently joined a group therapy while I wait for a specialist to talk to. I hesitated going to the group sessions, because it was scary to be so vulnerable to complete strangers, but Iâm so glad I did it! It helps to see others struggle with similar stuff and hear how they deal with it. And everyone is so helpful and supportive! I love it đ„°
I'm enby, so that "in-betweenness" is the goal of my transition, and I'm finally starting to get there!
It's been wonderful so far đ
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I'm still living it, very awkward.
Me too! Less than a year in, and still not out at work, itâs a weird time
