I have only been transitioning since middle of summer 2015. I have noticed a major shift in my psyche. I never had any idea how much I love the female in me. She is still finding expression in my transition. I am still looking forward to the day I feel a complete woman. I have no idea what this may be. What will fall away and part stays in this transition.

Much Love and Kisses,
Michelle❤️❤️💋 :)

I don't know the answer to your question about how long it takes to feel "complete."  I figure that varies a lot from person to person.  But the important thing is this: Despite the hardships and inconveniences of transition, there comes a point when each new day is a little better and a little easier than the one before.  When that happens you really know you're on the right track.

I choose voice, my body, especially my stomach bothers me too, but I still hope that hormones and shifting fat will help/fix that issue, no medication will fix my voice and despite a moderate amount of practice I dont feel that it has improved much at all even after 8 or so months full time.

One part of me hates it with a vengance and has wanted me to hurt myself over it, another more rational part of me knows that my voice even with the little I can do for it is not as bad as I usually see it, generally more androgenous than masculine or feminine.

so ya i worry about my voice and my weight and a few other general body issues, mannerisims, body language, and outing myself dont bother me, I outed myself to everyone in short order and I have come to accept that women are so diffrent that how I walk or gesture just is not that important.

What is a Lie when it's at home? Anyone?
Is it the depressed little voice inside? Whispering in my ear? Telling me to give up?
Well I'm not giving up. Not for that part of me that hates myself. That part wants me to wither and die. not for you. Never for you.  --Loki: Agent of Asgard

Well I never felt complete as a male but Oretty much from the moment I started living full time as a woman then I felt complete as a woman. Before that, all the switching back and forth was messing with my mind.

Q: - How long did it take to really start feeling like a complete woman?

Hello everyone, 9 months HRT, 2 months RLE and SRS.  Did not feel 'like a complete woman' until SRS.

Thank you,
Anne
