Over 2 years into HRT and I still can't get over my reflection and stop and stare at it briefly in washrooms

I don't think I ever felt "it's me" on an emotional level when looking in mirrors before transition, just on a rational level. Now I have "holy shit this is me I can't believe it" almost every time

Transition is nothing less than miraculous for me

@AzureHusky only if you have the spoons:

as I may be starting soon(-ish?? still figuring out my feelings? they're mostly positive?) any... start-of-hrt advice? my partner is convinced I will be an unstable mess for a while and I'm not really seeing any evidence of this.

again, only if you have the time/energy to answer, and this feels like an appropriate question in this medium. take care of yourself. thank you also. 💖

@heytanuki oh gosh!! Okay I'm going to set a reminder to answer this tonight or tomorrow since I'm in the office this second and can't give it the time it deserves
