So. I was in town the other day, and caught sight of my reflection. “Hmm, I actually look almost like a girl today,” I thought. In an inexplicable fit of courage, I decide to risk the women’s bathroom. Heart pounding, I go in. No alarms sound. Finish my business, wash hands, escape. In the end I didn’t encounter anybody else, so it wasn’t much of a test. But now I’m paranoid that that was the only reason it didn’t end in disaster :/
Oh, and I got my ears pierced. Now I get a happiness boost every time I see myself in the mirror!
And the doctor wasn’t happy with my estrogen level, so she’s reduced my dose and put me on spiro. At least I now have an excuse for all the pickles I eat.
Congrats on the bravery and the piercings, that’s huge! To me there’s nothing better than the feeling of looking in the mirror and liking the person you see.
