Started HRT Last Night


MirandaB

Recommended Posts

11 months in today. Thinking I'm seeing some progress in body shape altering in other areas besides the budding breasts.  Still amazed everyday by how soft skin can get. 

 

Mentally the only issue really is kicking myself for delaying taking action for so many decades. 

 

I still work from home, unseen, but around town or running errands I'm usually dressing in clothes that aren't over-the-top femme but femme nonetheless. (Once it's too cold for shorts again there will need to be more shopping to continue that trend).  I do a little mascara and lip color from time to time but do need to figure out makeup techniques to somehow let my freckles still be apparent because they seem to fool people about how old I am. And maybe they're cute?

 

Have had a number of rough months at home, wife got pretty cold to me for a lot of this year. But lately she's gone back to where we were in the early months, not totally accepting but at least nicer to me. She apologized for 'being in a bad mood...for a year.'  

 

Not out to everybody, but to everybody I need to be except work, cause I have a very small social network after decades of having that wall around me that only I knew about.

Wonderful Rhonda! Starting HRT is just around the corner for me, waiting for the referral to endo to go through.

 

I have a very small social network after decades of having that wall around me that only I knew about.  

It's so true for me as well, the literal & figurative closet we put ourselves into. I am starting to get past the worrying what others might think as I live as who I am inside. It is comforting to know there is & have been societies where people who don't fit the "societal norm" are accepted, such as Two Spirits are & have been here in North America.

 

Hugs!

Happy HRT(r)anniversary to me! I promise to stop dredging up this thread monthly, maybe forever. 

 

Maybe I have some fat redistibuting to parts of my midsection now as part of this very s l o w process. Still partially in stealth mode when out and about but have edged more into 'who cares what others think' mode. 

 

Oh, and have first tan lines that don't look like I only wear T shirts out in the summer, that was fun.

Happy HRT anniversary, @RhondaS.

What a dream for me. I don't know . . . but the HRT experience has now entered my radar space. Hope to be inspired by your journey.

yours,

Davie

Oh, the avatar is a FaceApp cheat. I have real pics that are just makeup but they're a little over the top, makeovers in London, from back last year when I still thought crossdressing was the cure for what ailed me.

      I've seen this on a lot of forums tbh. That's how a lot of content ends up on internet archives. You've got loads of bots scanning the site at all times and archiving it. Forums are actually nice (in comparison to social media) in that the guest count gives you a pretty good idea of how actively the site's content is being archived. Basically just don't post anything you don't want archived.

      Kids are resiliant with therapy and strong support ;-)    They were all elementary age when their dad died and are teens now, and how they've grown and developed as young people, already, takes my breath away.   I'm working on communicating changes clearly and without shame, which is difficult basically all the time because of feeling guilty over doing gender "wrong" for so long. Working on that myself! <3

      Allow me to add that people should think twice about posting pictures of themselves, with the facial recognition software that is out there.  Those in stealth or who are not fully out may discover they are suddenly and unwillingly fully out in ways they wish had not happened.

      Funny how when i read the topic name i thought you were asking about the study of plants and animals.  I'm a bit into that as a farmer at va time when a cell phone makes plant  for insect identification easier than it has ever been.    Now on to your topic.  I don't farm in the nude.  I have wondered at whether i would skinny dip as i did as a kid without thought of how my body might affect others.  The effects of hormones makes me different from the average person and perhaps i'm "neither fish nor fowl".  I would certainly depend on who my fellow passengers on that cruise would be.   Hugs,   Charlize

      This is also a relatively small forum and it can take a long time, seemingly, for someone to get around to replying to a post.

      I am also pretty sure that several of them are folks who are "trans curious".  Sometimes folks who are trying to find their own identity, are attracted to trans folks or who are simply interested in the trans community.   There may also be some who wish to do us harm which is why ......... I've just learned to smile figuring "i'm on candid camera".   I'm sure many of our younger members never experienced that show so my age is showing.   Hugs,   Charlize

      Most of those "guests" are web bots from China, Indonesia, France etc. looking us over. They are mostly benign.  All they can see or gain access to are the general forums.  Members should be careful not to post anything that could readily identify themselves such as real names, addresses, phone numbers, etc. They do not have access to our gallery, blogs or private messenger. They seem to haunt all forums. Not just us. I should add that they can make us known across the internet. That's how prospective members find us. Google would be a good example.

      I hope he gets what he deserves.

      Heck I didn't even know they could go up that high! I just have a four burner and one to keep stuff warm. What kind of pies did you make?

      That's all the matters.   Well me and the wife rode to Perkins for breakfast. As we were waiting for our food. Being it is Sunday There are a few gentleman in suits, my guess from church. I think to myself. I hope I never have to wear one of those monkey suits ever again. Now a nice dress maybe.   Hugs,   Kymmie

      From time to time I've looked at 'Who Is Online" and I have consistently noticed that members are ALWAYS outnumbered by Guests by a wide margin, sometimes, like a minute ago, by more than a 10:1 margin.  I have never seen that before on an internet forum.  It can be explained partly by the nature of what this is, that it draws the curious and they are certainly welcome to read here, and to join, but it leaves me with a feeling of being in a fishbowl.  I wonder who ARE these people?  Donald Trump, is that you? Biden? Sinwar? Putin?  We can only guess.

      So from time to time my brain gets a hold of information and puts it together with other information in weird way that get me thinking. I was reading about a nudes cruise that they are running out if Miami. It got me thinking that a transgendered person who is also a naturalist, has to be one of the most unlucky people alive. How does one manage that and does that ever come up? Not trying to make fun here, just genuinely curious. Things that make you go hmmmm....

      No luck there, really. She's getting a signing bonus plus a little extra that I don't think would cover much in the way of the move, but it is something!   Oh my! I am glad to hear you're not passing anymore blood. I hope they figure it out soon! How distressing!   @April Marie @KymmieL @Mirrabooka @Willow @Justine76, thank you for the kind words and thoughts! We told our best friends last night. There were many tears. Now it's all about the work: selling the house (my wife's friend's son said he may want to buy it direct!), a job (a former employee of mine wants to bring me over to his company--and they're based outside of Tacoma!), and moving (just started going through what we don't want bring and donating things). So things have kicked off.   I'm not so sure of the job, it would be good to work with my former employee (he's great) but I fear the culture may not be super welcoming to someone like me--and the guy doesn't know I'm trans in any way. But I'll give it a shot as my authentic self and see what happens!
