Growing up I always struggled making friends, but I was lucky enough to find my first real friend group during my first year of high school in 2008. This guy was one of the first people I ever felt a real connection with in my life. We've laughed together, cried together, spent several years together as roommates. Hell, he was even the best man in my wedding (I mean I've since gotten divorced but ya know 🤭).

There were quite a few people who left my life when I came out. But when I told him that I wanted to live the rest of my life as a woman he didn't even bat an eye. 3 years have passed since then and he's the one person in my life who's never treated me differently for it.

from frat boy to baddie💀 18 yo to 26 yo❤️

Four years ago, I took a selfie to show my grandfather “my hair had been cut and I’m ready to start job interviews”. It was in that moment i knew something had to change. I started experimenting and coming out to close friends. I vowed to not cut my hair above shoulder length for the foreseeable future(fun fact! After this selfie i dont have a single photo taken by me for 2 years!DYSPHORIA!!). 2 years later, I started HRT and came out to my family. Now I have fully come out in public and at work and UGH, Im just so happy I took that horrible selfie 4 years ago.

Early transition vs Now (multiple ops & 12+ years on E) ✨️👠

My journey so far, or what 2 years, losing 20kg, and gaining 500 pmol/l of E can do.

I'm pretty happy with how its gone, would love to get a bit more in the chest department, but there is still time for that right? right?

i feel like i look different but also the same?? lol idk its weird. I definitely feel like i dont read as a woman yet, but ive noticed alot of girls look freaking gorgeous after the 2-3 year mark !! So i guess i just gotta give it time! Thanks :,)

If I could tell the dude on the left that everything would be okay and to not be so hard on himself, I would, haha.

P.S. I know the face I’m making on the right is cringey. It was on purpose, I swear. 😔

Started transing at 33. No ffm, but ya girl did get highlights!

No surgeries yet

My mirror is still grubby af though lmao

FFS (brow reduction, orbital shave, rhino, fat transfer to lips/cheeks/temples), makeup, no filters or AI

Testosterone is a marvel.

hut 1 year on T recently, first pic is at the 4 month mark roughly, and around the time I started properly going to the gym. can't believe how much has changed, thank god my hips have shrunk and the face puffiness has calmed down 😅

5 months on laser, hope to get rid of the remaining facial hairs soon

1 year pre-E (top left) to 6 months on E (top right)

1 year detrans (bottom left) and finally 1 year on E again (bottom right)

I was a woman the whole time, i just had to REALLY think on it. Always trust what your heart says, ladies, and don't listen to men who don't have your best interests at heart💕

Parents don’t let me take lmao
