Told a nurse at the hospital I was on HRT. She looked me up and down, quickly spun around to look at my record, and turned back to me with mouth agape and said "you're only 34!!" Took me a second to realise what she was thinking before I had to say "it's not for that! I'm trans"

One of my favourite things about HRT is thinking your muscles are as big as they always were, flexing them to show someone, and grabbing them confused thinking "wait, where did they go???" while convincing yourself you're just flexing wrong

Some of you need to know my favourite trick, where if a place is being awkward changing anything to do with gender markers on your details you can just call up and pretend to be cis and say you've noticed a mistake on your account and they'll apologise and fix it immediately

stay safe out there

After having to switch GP surgeries because the last one was too transphobic, the new one just immediately sent my shared care request to the pharmacy??? I'll no longer have to pay £400 per prescription!! I literally cried

Looking at photos of myself from the past two weeks and starting to think that maybe the only thing that's gotten less pretty is my perception of myself???

The replies to this sparked my curiosity for weird things so I looked up bambi sleep and skimmed through them and honestly it sounds like an avant garde tgirl album

Love when you put on clothes from earlier in transition and they squish you in *certain places* to let you know you've made progress

Paid £900 for a proper trans diagnosis and to move to a more reputable private provider, for my GP to just refuse to do shared care 😭

Thought that going to a funeral cured my deep depression I'd suddenly got, until I remembered that I'm experimenting with cycling my progesterone and the day of the funeral was when I came back on it So yeah now I understand the people who say don't do it bc it's awful for mental health

I know nobody asked but I got a bladder ultrasound today and it was holding 763mls. Can't stop looking at bottles and going "my bladder is bigger than that"

One thing I think about often is when I became a victim of sexual violence & how isolated and helpless I felt at the time. I called up a crisis line for help & got an incredibly depressing automated message that they were too busy for more calls. Funnily enough, that helped. I no longer felt alone.

Experimenting with cycling my progesterone Already prepared my friends by apologising to my friends and telling them not to worry if I'm not acting insane like usual over the next two weeks
