After two years, two months, two weeks, and five days and rigorous amounts of applications I finally got offered a job at Walgreens. I'm glad to not only have a job now but one that's LGBT and disability friendly.

Plus four months on hormones :)

Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being....  - Dan Barker

Not to hijack your thread Emily but I thought I too should share I got a job today aswell :)!!!.

Look at us Emily, two openly transgender women who are both on the autism spectrum (believe you said sometime ago you were too yes?) getting ourselves jobs and showing the world we mean business and NO ONE can stop us or hold us back!

Congrats again girl <3

Holy crap Soli!!! It's so awesome to hear from you again!!!  :D :D :D

Oh and thank you everyone else I honestly can say I feel pretty happy right now, yeah I still have to deal with parents but I'll let time be the judge and hopefully they'll just see that I'm happy and both mentally and emotionally sound but if not I'm actually no longer afraid of getting kicked out after being homeless during the summer I not afraid (although it does suck) of that petty threat anymore.

And I'll share my experience with being on hrt for four months:

There is breast growth not significant yet but enough to the point it's best to wear a bra

Skin is getting softer

I think my hair is thicker and it has gotten darker

Some fat redistribution hips are developing my thighs are a little thicker

Sex drive is getting low I no longer have random erections

Emotions oh they're there lol I cry ever so more easily now like earlier today I got a thank you message from someone I had helped find a clinic for hrt in Oklahoma and her message was so touching I had to hold back tears. Hrt isn't for the faint of heart xD

That's the changes I noticed so far and I welcome the coming months :)
