hi. My name is snackattack. But you can call me Jazlyn. (Jazz Jennings is my role model, so I named myself after her but with a twist.)
I began my hormone replacement therapy this past April 5th 2015 when I saw my primary care physician and was diagnosed with GID. I was prescribed for Estradiol and Spironolactone pills. From the moment I took my pills that sunday morning at 6AM on 4/5/15, I had peace of mind and ever since I'm now happy.
There are a bit of adjustments to make like my diet, tiredness and anxieties, and things like that will eventually ease out during the course of the transition.
Everyone in my family and workplace is accepting. I pass 90% as female so the restroom issue has been tackled by crossdressing and my small frame built plus the hormones will help as well.
I'm also getting support from my local LGBT centers here in NY, where I live so I do not feel isolated at all.
There is one thing, even though I identify as female. I do not feel like Girly Girly Girl like most people expect me to be as. Before I transitioned, I dressed as androgynous or towards the transfeminine type, and I'm not even sure If I'm genderqueer (can a MTF be genderqueer?). I dress sometimes as a girl tomboy (not butch), still with some pinks, glitter, here and there, but I mix with Camo and some blouses or tee shirts with game characters (I wear snap back basecaps sometimes like Max West). I love cute stuff like MLP, Strawberry Shortcake, all the girls stuff and I also like boy stuff as well like gaming, skateboarding, and scifi. I guess since I've been taking my HRT pills now I trying to choose the type of woman I wish to be as.
