Girl big mood. Just knowing makes you "trans enough" though and any effort you make should be a celebration. I still worry about being "trans enough" cause I still only wear guy clothes but we're all just trying our best. You're doing great, doll. Don't you worry

Sometimes feelings can be misleading, esp in imposter syndrome. It doesn’t matter if someone FEELS like xyz (doctor, a business person, an entrepreneur) when they are quite literally doing it. (I guess that’s the definition 😂 bt whatever, sometimes I need to be reminded). You are you, & beautiful.

if it helps, i showed your video about dysphoria to the people i live with, because it was nearly word-for-word the experience i had with my own dysphoria

so idk, i think you were very real for that

That's normal, it should get a lot more manageable as you get more comfortable living as yourself

I've found that when I'm in a good state of mind, setting up my defenses in advance by surrounding myself with as many affirmations and sources of euphoria as possible very much helps

Even on days where I get called sir, buddy, etc., it does ruin my day and make me feel horrible and in pain, but being able to remind myself, oh, this is all the progress I've made by documenting all my changes, and looking at them, or focusing on the feminine parts of myself really helps a ton

I wish HRT didn't take 500 million years to do what I want it to do, but it's called a transition for a reason, and remembering that it's like this for everyone, that I'm not some unique case where it does nothing to my body, really helps when I start to feel impatient or frustrated

Last suggestion before I go to bed:

This isn't feasible until these features develop, but something that helps me tons with dysphoria and impostor syndrome is playing with my boobs, or putting my hand on my hips or thighs to feel fat distribution changes, since that's immediate physical affirmation
