It's been 3.5 months since I started hormones, and I've increased once and switched another. I have felt incredible. The anxiety and anger have been decreasing monumentally, my self hatred rapidly turning into self love, though I am still learning all of these things. I love who I see in the mirror, even at this early of a stage. I made the decision to begin transitioning having no idea what to expect, and these positive changes have been so much more than I could have hoped for. The fears of starting and doubts of my identity seem so far away. I wanted to post a couple of before/after pics to show the differences, however slight, that hormones have begun to make. I think a large part of the change is in my demeanor, joy, and outlook, in addition to any physical changes that may or may not be in my own head. Either way, I wanted to share.
Side note: I've been considering starting to do tutorials of makeup, from basic face to full glam. I want to present it in a way that is easy for anyone to try a little here and there instead of being overwhelming like "hey look how amazing I can do this," since I'm still learning too. Lemme know what you think on that too!
Side side note: All pics here are original, without filters
Much love, Aria
