I have been on HRT for four months now and am slowly starting to get out in the real world as my real self. My biggest surprise so far is how uneventful it has been. I am not sure what I expected, but nothing out of the ordinary has happened yet. From going to the mall, restaurants, the ladies room etc. people have either completely ignored me or accepted me as is.
I am 6'4" so i was worried about my height at first, but it hasn't been an issue. I was even able to vent about clothes shopping for tall girls with a cashier.
It is so liberating just to be out as myself and not care what anyone thinks. I never thought I would get here but one day I just decided I didn't care what anybody else thought, I accepted myself for who I am and most importantly I think, I just got comfortable in my own skin.
I couldn't have gone this far without the supportive info from those that have traveled this road ahead of me!!
