Hi everyone! I've been a reader for a while, but finally decided to make an account.
I had a really great day today, I got my first prescription for female hormones! I've been on an anti-androgen for 3 months now. I'm not full-time but I've gone out as female several times now, I can pass in public since I'm young (20 years old), although I rather of been born a girl, gotta find the positives where I can
.
I came out to my family 5 months ago and everyone has been very accepting. I was so scared, but it all worked out, I feel very lucky, not everyone is as fortunate. My mom and me are actually closer now, I don't have to hide things, oh and we also talk about make-up and clothes
.
It's been a year since I first told a therapist about how I felt about my gender. It has felt like such a crazy journey so far, doctors, secrets, depression, tears, but for once in my life I feel like I'm going in the right direction. I know I got a lot ahead of me, but I feel like "I can do this!", it's a nice feeling.
Sorry if I rambled, I'm just excited today
. I want to thank you guys, coming here to read your stories, and advice really helped me over the past few years.
