Waiting for my hair and boobs to grow. It’s so slooooow. I don’t look (to my eyes) nearly as feminine as I’d like, although clearly I’m starting to be read that way by other people. But what am I not satisfied by? Clothes? Hair / makeup? Face? I’m not sure. I’m bad at everything and don’t know how to girl. Eugh, early transition (month 7 of HRT) sucks.
Anybody want some data? I’m on 3 x 0.72mg patches every other day. Two was subjectively not enough to suppress the effects of T. Last blood test was 0.48 ng/mL T; 400 pg/mL E2. Acceptable, but I guess I might want to substitute some prog for estradiol at some point.
My week has been great! My girlfriend and I told each other that we love each other this week, and it just made me so happy. I’ve been having a stressful time lately adjusting to some changes, since the grandma I live with is at a point where she needs to move to assisted living in a few months and we’re selling the house to pay for it. However, all the difficulties at home have been balanced with the joy I feel getting to spend my time with a girl I adore, so things could be so much worse. We’ve been talking about possibly moving in together, which is an exciting prospect!
I got my toes painted a baby blue color, and now I want to eat them all the time 😭 They remind me of Easter candies …
I finally bought a set of my own polish (instead of using my spouse’s) and I have a light blue on the outer toes. They’re gorgeous! The little things do so much sometimes
Well… I go into work tomorrow (thanks chuck). Reeeeally wanted to have like a week or more off (because burnout) without dipping into my PTO safety net (it pays out when i quit).
Spiraling anxiety and depression and not-technically-diagnosed ADHD WHEEEEEEEEEE.
Less than 30 days to the first (adult) ADHD evaluation appointment with a psychologist…
