When I first started transitioning that exact feeling was the number one benefit I told people about. Like the engines running on new oil and it's running so smooth now
I've heard trans people talk about it before bit tbh I also was very much in the thought process of "This will not just fix your life or be a magic drug. It will just make me grow boobs basically" but like I gotta say it's just way better than I ever could have expected
This will not just fix your life or be a magic drug
That’s what I’ve been telling myself for a while now. I’ve been avoiding estrogen because of constraints in my life. Are you saying this isn’t the whole picture?
What I'm saying is that, I had heard that estrogen was like life changing and changed many different parts of your life. But from other people, I heard it just made them grow boobs basically. I aired on the side of caution and just expected it to basically make me grow boobs and stuff.
Frankly I've been very pleasantly suprised. It's really life changing for me. Like I can exist in society. I can literally focus at work which I never expected to happen. I'm not even out there yet. I feel like where in the past I would jsut become depressed and anxious and really miserable about so many things I'm just... not. Like I feel good. It's really wild. I've never felt this way
I wouldn't say it's fixed my life cuz I got all kinds of problems. But it is kinda magic and I feel mentally sharper and more in touch with my emotions and I've not been on it long

estrogen isn't for everyone but personally it's been a lifesaver. i feel unbelievably better about everything
