It's very hard, but at least we're not alone in it

It's worth checking! I'm still working through the leap to acceptance, a long way off from surgery. But I think a paper trail could only be helpful for that sort of thing.
Wow! I had never heard of this. Bookmarked for when I'm feeling up for pulling apart a laptop again. Thank you so much!

Asked my therapist if there's a way for me to pursue a gender dysphoria diagnosis (I just needed some affirmation). "Oh, that's been in your file for almost two years now."
This is what I did and it worked out great. The only extra thing to be aware of is there's a possibility the BIOS may be locked. I can't disable secure boot on mine because of this, which limits my options for Linux distro. Thankfully Mint does everything I want 😄
I've also been playing Celeste again. My fingers hurt lol
Getting a basic eyeshadow routine down 😄 Feeling good about my progress. I'm so thankful there are a million tutorials on youtube.
Got my dress out of the back of my closet. Wearing it feels natural :)
I feel like studs is the way to go while it heals! I got hoops when I got mine pierced, and they were a lot more trouble than they were worth. You never realize how much you bump your ear until you get a piercing haha. I hope you love them and best of luck with healing 🥰
This rules and I am happy for you :)
Thank you all for the well wishes. I made it :)
