Youre exactly where im at, my post with the yellow sundress was first time public in daylight in a moderately crowded area. It was scary, but the feeling of being who i saw far outweighed the fear. Now im just waiting to therapy (6 days woo) to finally tell her what i shouldve been talking about this whole time, gotta plan a talk with my partner to ease my kid into it. Scheduled my gender pathways appt in late may, very exciting stuff going on!
Im glad you had fun! I wanna burn all my masc clothes too, and i will! Just not quite yet, soon tho
If you've got appointments scheduled, you're further along than I am! I have no idea where to start and given the state I live in, I have to scrape up money for everything since insurance will no longer pay for it. ๐ญ
It sounds like you're well on the way to being your true you! Def jealous.
Honestly I might go full weirdo and stuff the clothes with straw to make weird strawmen to burn my clothes in a field... Alas, also not yet.
Someday!
Have you considered diy. It helped me get what I need when I used to live in a conservative country
I wouldn't even know where to start there. I have extremely basic first aid knowledge and some nursing school knowledge I picked up from helping an old gf study for a couple years. So diy is basically Wild Magic to me
Diy means ordering hormones off of the internet, I do injctions now for example now. (In a better place but still not in the official system) Do you have any secure communication channels? I did help others I would like to help you.
I'd be afraid I'd fuck something up and injure myself somehow but depending on how the next few weeks go, I might shoot you a DM to get in contact.
The most secure way I have is my signal account, I keep PIN turned on, only "new message" for a notification (idk if android has the same issue I phones had recently with signal notifications being stored but just in case...)
