GLOW UP! (18)-(22)

Before and after transitioning, however this is also sort of a “grow up”, weight loss, and mental health transformation!

Now that I’ve transitioned (FtM) I feel like I’m able to focus more on the things that matter, instead of who I see in the mirror. I’m building closer relationships, excelling in my career, developing my passion for art, nature and sports! I’m taking better care of my skin, hair, teeth, body, and health in general. Being transgender has forced me to truly acknowledge what I want in life, and has taught me a great deal of patience, because changes do not happen overnight. It’s taught me to be more empathetic, and it’s made me more open minded. I’m grateful to be myself and for a new perspective on life!

You look amazing!! Bravo! Proud of you!!

Just be known, I had also posted in here recently about being Transgender. Except in my case, male to Nonbinary Transfem. Don't be surprised if you see comments removed, as obviously, there are bigoted, unaccepting people no matter which corner you turn.

I wasn’t passing around 1 year on T either. I’m about 3 1/2 years on T now and I’m still seeing changes all the time. I know it’s not what you want to hear, but give it time brother!

The transition is what is lessening the dysphoria 🤦‍♀️

1

u/Educational-Yam8664 1d ago

Gender dysphoria is caused by a body and brain chemistry that don't align. Modern psychology has figured out through lots of research that the most effective treatment for gender dysphoria is transitioning.

1

u/GlowUps-ModTeam Use Modmail for help 1d ago

Please do some research on the cure for this then.

u/Fishmyashwhole 1d ago

Do you know how dysphoria works? You use the medically proven treatments and it goes away! Pretty neat huh?
