Sometimes I have to remind myself that I am more than my gender and that transitioning isn’t some magic fix for all my problems.

And other times the gender euphoria hits and it feels like transitioning is indeed a magic fix. I literally just put my hair in a messy bun and left out some hair danglies in the front (what the fuck are these called?). It would look like such a small change to someone else but it feels huge to me. It even made me like my beard. I enjoyed a selfie of my face. What the fuck.
