Hey just an update, as I made a post Thursday a week ago that was quite heavy, and I felt it would be unfair to leave that hanging.

I’ve finally gone on hrt and I feel amazing. In a terrible kind of way. Like still totally depressed, numb, concentration issues and the like but in a feeling fantastic kind of way.

Last Monday I broke a vase. I left it like that until today. I tidied up, cleaned up, moved furniture, cried cuz of music, hung pictures on the wall which I wanted to do for years, apologized to a friend, unpacked more of my stuff. I rewarded myself by going out and getting a pizza. I clicked with everyone it was fantastic.

While I was biking home I realized that I knew I wouldn’t be tired. I wouldn’t have to retreat into a dark corner with my phone, pushing away hours hoping for my stamina to return.

Hormones work. I still can’t believe it. I still can’t believe I am a woman. I still can’t believe that I can decide what I’ll do tomorrow. I still can’t believe that this is what life is like for most poeple. Ya’ll doing a bunch of drugs 24 7 essentially. And this goes on for the rest of my life? Omg

    yeah, the hormones are like doing drugs 24/7, that’s an apt metaphor 😆
