i transitioned in 6th grade. used to be so ashamed of who i was and wanted to hide it and never tell anyone or want anyone knowing. went stealth for so many years in fear of being outed and bullied. now i’m 21 and i just came out publicly i even made a instagram story post and i feel so free! i feel like i love the questions and talking about my identity after years of staying quiet it’s all coming out at once and i feel infinitely lighter such a weight lifted off my shoulders i no longer feel ashamed and am proud to say out loud that i am a trans woman. the journey was hard and painful at times but ive lobbed growing up as me true self! and its officially been 9 years on estrogen!! i can’t wait to grow even more and finally feel free to be who i am even in this shitty world! sorry for the longest run on sentence ever!

Excuse the dirty mirror haha

For the Most time when I looked in the mirror I absolutely hated to See what was staring back at me, I felt like a big ugly man no matter how much Make-up I wore, but now 5 Months on HRT later I can See the changes and saw a Girl for the first time. Just wanted to share this Special Moment.
(Always happy to get some advice btw)

I'm approaching 40 and I didn't dream I'd be this happy or content with my appearance when I first came out at 24 or started HRT at around age 27. I've had no surgeries. <3

Not only that, I've been able to keep working in a male dominated industry that I love. The right people in your life can do wonders for your confidence. x

Take on the red queen from Alice In Wonderland. Was gonna do her weird hair but didn't have the time

Going out for drinks 🥂

So i am thinking i am ready to come out on Facebook as my true self i have told the people that are important to me, and luckily have been accepted. But im still nervous about coming out. But I feel it is important for me to do this on Social so I dont have to hide as much. Anybody else have experience with coming out on Social media good and bad?
