It’s the night before I take my next E shot and all day it’s been hard for me to regulate my emotions, but is such a wide gamut of emotions.

There was a lot today, but what broke me was my kid decided to clean the bathroom with my new exfoliating sponge. I was frustrated. I threw it away and went outside to come to grips. When I came back in I took them out of the shower and we had a nice little talk about it, respecting other people’s things, respecting other people’s feelings, talking about your feelings so other people can understand how you’re feeling and help you.

My SO said I handled it perfect, and I’m glad I did, but it was a struggle.

I’m hoping I can even out a bit more in the future, but if these are the prices I pay, I’m fine with it.

My SO and I had a talk, they’re seeing good things, they see I’m happy, coming out of my shell, unsaid to feel and be, made me feel good.

They don’t know I started HRT yet, but I’m sure they know something is up.

We’ve talked about me on HRT so it won’t be a big deal breaker or anything, there’s just been so much going on and so much external stress, I’m worried to add to it.

Anyone else have any inputs or experience in this? How did y’all handle the emotional aspect of things?

Edit: I told them

    I just told them, they left to go sort their feelings.

    They were supportive but I fucked up not explicitly saying “XYZ”.

    Thanks for the support, dear.

      Oh, God, I fell like it’s my fault somehow. I’m so sorry, and I hope things go well for you.

        Not your fault, we were having that convo before you commented ❤️

        We’re taking care of her dying mom and there isn’t much privacy, and her mom isn’t very understanding., so there wasn’t a good time to talk prior to tonight.
