Started HRT Last Night

[MirandaB]

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.
