It took me more than half a year after realizing I was trans because I was thinking that since I barely had gender dysphoria, my life might be happier living as male and cis presenting than losing all that privilege and transitioning

Of course, the dysphoria got worse exponentially after realizing and that was no longer an option

I feel kinda dumb for thinking I might've been an exception since it seems like this happens to every trans person that used to not have that much dysphoria

    wow i am going through this myself exactly.

    i'm just not ready and afraid to actually pull the trigger and do it. i have some IRL people i can talk to about where to go but my life situation is so precarious.

    congrats though and really happy for you! hopefully i'll make a similiar post in the near future trans-heart

      Honestly I'd recommend you to just do it. From what I've heard from other trans people, none of them, including me, were close to being ready or prepared. We just all eventually had to do it as treatment rather than a desire

      Thanks for the love cat-trans
