I officially and finally came out to my family and best friends within the last two weeks and in that time, I've noticed something I find interesting. I feel much more confident in myself and my ability to live my life as I see fit. My nightmares have stopped. And overall, I just feel like I've pushed an emotional "reboot" button. I never use to cry growing up but between the ages of 21-25, I frequently sobbed while hiding in my car/ room/ apartment. Since coming out, even when I've been in pretty bad pain, nothing, no tears. It's like some hole has been repaired inside of me. Now, I just need to figure out what's next for me (gender-wise). :3. Just felt like sharing.
Glad to hear that it's made such a good difference in your life. You can't really know how great it feels until it happens, so I'm glad you've made it there. Also - Good on you for sharing. It's posts like these that can encourage others to break down the door of their closet.
I cannot express how proud and happy for you as well as jealous... But I did notice that level of confidence I had when I told myself and then my therapist about being a female. I think it was made clear in a lot of my latest pictures. (*hug*)
Yay! I noticed something similar myself. I found it easier to cope with my emotions and people said I looked noticeably more confident xD Glad everything is going so well for you and that you're able to be yourself fully
(*hug*) It'll totally happen for you, Kasey and I'll be cheering like this (!)(!)(!) when it does. And yeah, your new pics are great! Confidence/ emotional stability make a huge difference! Who knew!? :lol: And thanks for all of the encouraging words everybody!!
Trans and genderqueer people fuck up threads original intentions like Mike Tyson does to his opponents... Just saying.
