Voice training is so frustrating at the start, but sooo worth it (for me anyway). I had no idea how much dysphoria it would alleviate. In my experience, when people are on the fence about how to gender you, they use your voice as a tie-breaker.

But yeah, the early stages suck. It can feel even more dysphoric in the beginning because of how uncomfortable it feels. But it really does get better with practice. Consistency is key. 5 min 4 days in a row is way better than one 20 session.

Also, you probably already know this, but taking a sip of water will clear your throat and it’s way better for your voice.

I generally try not to drink water through the tube to my lungs tho?

Also every bit helps. I struggle to maintain full femme voice, but I went from extremely deep (ie would out anyone) to androgynous for the most part
