Maybe not so big to those who have been there, done that....but Im not sure wether to be excited or nervous
Dysphoria has pretty much left me, thats great
My confidence has skyrocketed
Im not "presenting" female, but I find myself NOT worrying over it or what I look like
Im mixing it up lately and its not like I have to muster up courage to try anything... I just do/wear what I feel like
I guess thats where my concern comes into play.... I dont want to "out" myself just because I am no longer worried about it.... is that odd?
Catch 22 situation?
You'll know when the right time is, and even if you do "accidentally" out yourself it will still be the right time. :)
Not odd at all Hon!
And congrats!
Yes the relief we get when the brain oestrogen receptors are soaked in the girl juice can and does feel amazing.
Sure sometimes we feel like screaming out 'Guess what I'm me!'
But we also need to wait until we are ready to go outside as our true selves and show the world who we are.
It just takes a little time, in the mean time - celebrate!
I came soooo close to outing myself at the staff Christmas lunch. I'd had a fair bit to drink and was sooo relaxed and I just wanted to say "Guess what everyone!!!' So, so, soooo close. I'm glad I didn't, I was able to do it with no alcohol involved about three months later.
Yeah, this seems super common. When I started HRT my dysphoria evaporated, too! That triggered a few "bounces" where I'd think I wasn't trans anymore, and then realize that no, I really am, and back and forth and back and forth. So frustrating! But that's gone now. I love my tiny boobs!
Of course, now that I'm about to come out at work, I'm going through the same thing all over again. I've been gradually presenting more and more femme, and I'm pretty happy with where I'm at... do I need to come out? Bah.
