Hello I'm Jenifer

Hello all, Call me Jenifer.

 

I'm almost 50 years old, and for most of my life was not comfortable in my own skin.  I started underdressing decades ago, but in the last 5 years have been dressing more and more fully.  Now I Only dress as my birth gender when I'm at work, but that's more for safety reasons than anything else.  I was born male, but dressed as a male I am not happy, while dressed as myself, I smile a lot more and am much happier.

 

I saw that there's a section on self harm and I'm glad for that as its something I struggle with, I wont go into those details in this post though.

 

I am Married to a wonderful wife who not only knows but calls me her husband and her girlfriend, her only real complaint is that I have much prettier clothes than she does lol.

 

I look forward to being a part of this community, and I will see you around.

Welcome!  I am in your age range at 52 and just starting to break out of my shell.  I am not out to my wife yet but hoping, with my new therapists help, I can over come this.  I sadly must play the roll of a male much more throughout the day but hearing how happy it makes you is inspiring.  

I am glad you are here.  There are so many folks here that are truly wise with this life and community I am sure their experiences will help.  Read as much as you can here.  You are not alone.  Biggest thing that helped me is to learn that.

Please reach out to those who have experienced your troubles.  They will help I am positive.

Please stay safe.

Salutations and welcome to the community Jenifer!

 

My wife calls me her Amazon. I'll take it. We've been in a play fight over closet space since I came out. On more than one occasion we've been out clothes shopping and been a bad influence on each other. It's glorious to have a partner who loves and respects the real you.

 

Hugs!

      I have shared my doses and levels a lot and no one has said anything. Yeah I put alarms on my phone to make sure I don't miss a dose. I tend to forget a lot of stuff on what needs to be done. I have been also using the calendar on my phone a lot. I missed an appointment because I didn't put it in my calendar.

      Feeling better than I did yesterday

      It's official. My doctor wants me retested after the last results (too high). The test, that she scheduled, was likely too close to the dose. She did tell me to keep the increased dose instead of reverting to my old one, probably because my "too high" wasn't that high. I don't know what the forum's stance is on results, knowing full well the rules against sharing dosage, so I'll keep those under wraps until I know if it's OK to share those. Less to say, it was over the range she feels comfortable with by about 50%, but taken a day earlier than the midpoint value she was expecting. Grains of salt everywhere!   Of course I messed everything up too, missing my dose for the first time, yesterday. I had to re-reschedule the lab I setup yesterday to Monday from Saturday after taking my shot this morning to avoid the same issue with the testing. I woke up and thought, "Thursday, what do I have to do for work today? OH -crap-, IT'S THURSDAY! I missed my shot yesterday!"   Anyhoo. Question for the ladies: does anyone else get a mild zen-like high after their shots/doses? My brain feels lighter and I'm happier and I feel a lot more girlie this morning. 💃

      I'm into my fourth month of HRT and just titrated up in dosage after my last checkup. This is my life. 🤭   I have yet to grow out of my B cup bras, but I have noticed more fullness, having started with gynecomastia. I am seeing less gapping in bras with my right breast, which has always been smaller than my left. My areolae are slightly pronounced/projected now, that are larger but not vastly greater in circumference, and I have noticed little to no nipple changes beyond their painful sensitivity.

      -It's not a sprint it's an endurance.  -It won't happen overnight. -Seek a gender therapist. -You might lose a lot of support but hang in there. If they truly loved and cared about you they would stay. -Retail therapy helps and plus it builds your wardrobe and shoes. -Makeup is an artwork. It takes lots of practice to do it right and watch YouTube videos on how to put it on or someone who is knowledgeable. -You are going to have roller coaster emotions so don't rush anything.

      You have grown more breast tissue than most some only get one size and that is it. I went from 42C to 42DD but I'm also taking supplements. It's risky to take the supplements but to me it's worth the risk.

      I'd echo some of the advice in Imma Asher's letter in the book To My Trans Sisters:   Take your time.  See yourself. Be proud.  Be strong. Indulge in the transformation.  Read more.  Put down the brow pencil.  Live.  And be happy.

      I hope that there is some kind of justice. It's very sad and it doesn't even mention the family and I could only imagine how they feel.
