With some help, I've: chosen a name, come out to my mom, become more more comfortable as myself, and lose transphobic friends(If they can't handle me being me, they don't deserve me(that's what I've been told anyways)) Thank you all
It always brings a smile to my face to hear stories like this. I'm happy for you that you were able to come out and have this positive experience. It shows what a strong person you are. Fantastic!
