Title: The Past 48 Hours
Post by: jeri1973 on April 25, 2012, 03:10:28 PM
48 hours ago I took my first dose of HRT medications and let me tell you I have enjoyed every minute of it.  I know that I have not had time to get the full effects of it because I haven't had it in my system very much but I must say that I have been much more focused, much more active, smiling a lot more, much more productive and just enjoying life.

I would assume that the feeling I have is due to the fact I have finally took a major step in overcoming this curse of not being born who I really am and knowing that my body will someday be on the outside what it is on the inside.

Just had to share with you all the happy thoughts and I will keep you informed of any changes.


So other than what I've experienced already what should I expect next?

Mood swings... You will go from happy to mad to sad to vengeful to giddy in less than 12 minutes.

That's great, Jeri. I know my dysphoria diminished, even on a low dose.
