    Me: Huh, I was expecting HRT to make me emotional, but other than my mood going up and down it’s been fine.
    Also me: Has a full-on hysterical-sobbing-in-the-corner meltdown.
    Me: This proves nothing.

    I feel much better now.

    I’ve been collecting cute dangly earrings. Dressing up pretty is so much fun <3

      The cry fits are real. I usually take my E a few hours before evening shower, so I end up bawling while surrounded by warm water anyway. I’m hoping they’re less intense and less frequent after switching to injections. Fingers crossed!

      I cry literally every time my sweet elderly old lady cat meows at me, it’s definitely taking some time to get used to.
