:meow-hug: I'm so sorry you went through all that.I can't start because I'm not out to my family, who I live with. That's why I need to fix my shit and move. I'm legitimately very unsure if they'd allow it, and even if they did I think it would be extremely uncomfortable. Thank you for the link though.
I've never seriously tried, but yea it's always something my brain loves to jump to as well.
:meow-hug: I hope so. I can't imagine myself on hrt and happy with my body. All I know is I hate it right now and it's not like a "hit the gym more" issue.
You can be pretty secretive about taking hrt, it takes a while to kick in
Far better than bad stuff happening, and unironically if you're legit afraid of being homeless, message me. I'll find you a place. Might not be luxurious but it'd be enough to stay in for a bit.
I just need more time. Also reading some reports makes me nervous, like estradoll already needing to wear a bralet. Even a full year... I don't know if that's enough. Maybe I'm overestimating the amount of money I need to make to move. Hearing about how literally no one can afford to take care of themselves makes me very nervous.
:meow-hug: that is so nice of you. Hopefully I don't put myself in that position.
I'm heavyset so maybe its slightly different but there is no way I'm showing at all and i've been on E the same amount of time as estradoll (high dose monotherapy, no AAs). Nobody has any clue that I haven't told explicitly. I spent 4 days at a cabin going swimming and stuff at a cabin with family that I'm not out to and got nary a sideways glance. Even once I am showing a little I'm confident nobody will assume HRT, just weight gain or smth. I can feel the difference, but visually its actually not there at all yet.
But yeah. Its for sure scary to do something like that without a plan. But you would have a lot of runway to figure one out if you did decide to. Hope you can get out on your own soon!
